Providing a fantastic holiday home for larger families and groups of friends, this bright and cheery retreat has been tastefully furnished and beautifully decorated to make a fresh and airy base for hikers, wildlife spotters and outdoors enthusiasts enjoying a break in glorious surroundings. The property lies in a tranquil spot just outside the friendly coastal village of Monreith which features a beautiful long sandy beach (1.5 miles). Set on the scenic Machars Peninsula, the area is home to the bronze otter statue which overlooks the sea and is a memorial to the writer Gavin Maxwell. Exploring the peninsula, landmarks and attractions include the Galloway Astronomy Centre, The Swallow Theatre, the Drumtroddan Standing Stones, Sorbie Tower and Elrig House, all within 10 miles. Heading north, the thriving town of Newton Stewart (19 miles) has a choice of great pubs and restaurants.
Entering this welcoming farmhouse, the generously sized kitchen/diner has ample equipment for preparing family feasts, with a central country-style dining table and plenty of storage and workspace. Exploring further there’s a choice of sociable spaces for everyone to unwind in: a bright and cheery sunroom/lounge and a cute snug, one with a Smart TV, the other with a wood burner, and both with ample plush seating. The ground floor also features the first of the property’s five light, colourful and stylish bedrooms: a charming king-size room next to a handy shower room. Heading upstairs to the first floor you will find the four remaining bedrooms: two snug twins which share a Jack and Jill bathroom, and two lovely king-size rooms, each with an en-suite shower room. From the kitchen, the back door leads out to a handy separate drying room. The large garden is a cheerful spot with breathtaking views, a sweet lawn and outdoor furniture, offering a relaxing space for dining alfresco and watching sunsets over the Mull of Galloway. Parking is available for three cars, alongside storage for golf clubs, kayaks and bikes.
