About this property

Rowantree Cottage - a cottage that sleeps 7 guests in 3 bedrooms

Tucked away up a quiet glen, Rowantree Cottage offers a peaceful escape from the everyday. Surrounded by nature, the garden is a haven for birdlife, and if you're lucky, you may spot red squirrels darting through the trees, making it the perfect setting to slow down and reconnect.

The cottage blends modern comfort with its original character and charm. Inside, you'll find a warm and welcoming space designed for relaxed family living, from cosy evenings by the open fire (with logs and coal provided) to meals in the well-equipped open plan kitchen.

Step outside and you're perfectly placed to explore. The stunning Solway coast lies just under three miles away, with wide sandy beaches ideal for swimming, walking, and water sports. For those who love the outdoors, hill walking begins right from the doorstep, while nearby lochs offer peaceful fishing spots. Gatehouse of Fleet is 5 miles away with a small supermarket, pubs, cafes, shops, tennis courts and golf course.

Adventure seekers will enjoy the renowned 7stanes mountain biking trails at Kirroughtree Forest, part of the spectacular Galloway Forest Park. Other options for the area include Glentrool and Ae Forest.

Located within a Dark Sky Park, Rowantree is also perfect for unforgettable stargazing nights.

Charming local towns are just a short drive away. Discover the artistic flair of Kirkcudbright, browse independent food shops in Castle Douglas, or the book shops in Wigtown.
