This light and cosy holiday cottage has been thoughtfully converted from a former stables to make a lovely hideaway for three adults or for two adults and two children. Situated in the picturesque seaside village of Kippford, the property lies next to a friendly pub/restaurant and is just a short stroll from a choice of cafes and tearooms. A popular sailing destination, the village sits along the northern shore of the Solway Firth, with a lovely beach just to the east at Sandyhills (4.5 miles). To the north, the historic town of Dalbeattie (4 miles) is home to a theatre, golf club and museum, with nearby attractions including Buittle Castle, Dalbeattie Reservoir and Plantain Loch, all within 7 miles. Heading inland, Threave Castle and Threave Garden and Nature Reserve are on the outskirts of the popular town of Castle Douglas (10 miles).
Entering this sympathetically updated property, the welcoming hallway features stairs leading up to the first floor and directly into the snug, fresh and cheerful lounge/diner. Featuring ample comfortable seating and a TV, the bright and charming lounge also offers picturesque views over the river and towards Screel, the highest local peak. A sociable dining table is ideal for everyone to get together for a family meal which you can prepare in the fully equipped galley-style kitchen. Returning to the ground floor, you will find an invigorating shower room and a choice of two cosy, tastefully decorated bedrooms: a lovely king-size room and a charming single which has a useful additional pull-out child’s bed.
From the kitchen, a door leads out onto the bridge which leads across and down to the beautifully arranged terrace garden which has a BBQ and ample outdoor furniture and seating areas, offering a delightful spot for a morning coffee or a quiet drink in the evening. Parking is available for two cars.
