Settled amongst the rural greenery of Scotland, on the outskirts of the charming village of New Abbey, rests this characterful two-bedroom holiday home, Shaw Cottage.
Set over one floor, it is an 18th Century renovated cottage with spectacular views, which can sleep up to four guests, Shaw Cottage offers a charming escape for a small family or group of four seeking a rural retreat, with the delights of both the coast and country set within easy reach.
Park up in one of the two off-road spaces provided before making your way inside this lovely abode, where you can kick off your shoes and unload your belongings in the handy porchway before unwinding with a moment of peace in front of the woodburning stove in the snug sitting room.
Freshen up your holiday attire in the utility before discovering the sociable kitchen/diner, equipped with all of the essentials for a short break; uncork a bottle of wine and gather together with your loved ones as the dining table as the designated chef gets to work on preparing hearty meal.
In the summer months, why not make mealtimes an alfresco affair with a seating amongst the peaceful greenery of your private garden?
As day turns to night, a delightful bathroom awaits, perfect for a blissful evening soak or a quick morning rinse, whilst a king-size and twin bedroom are set across the way, ideal for couples, families and friends sharing.
If you can tear yourself away from the delights of this wonderful abode, be sure to venture into the heart of New Abbey, where you'll find a handful of local amenities, including a shop, a pub and a café, ideal for indulging in a bite to eat, whilst the 13th century remains of Sweetheart Abbey, Abbey Vale Football Club and the Shambellie Walled Garden are must-visit attractions.
Keep little ones entertained with a trip to Mabie Farm Park, a small amusement park offering quad bike experiences, paddle boats, and a cute petting zoo.
For a change of pace, travel into Dumfries, where you can enjoy a night on the town, tour the fascinating monuments and museums, or catch the train to Ayr or Glasgow to explore more of Scotland.
Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life with a retreat for four at Shaw Cottage.
