About this property
A pleasant detached cottage situated on the outskirts of Thornhill, wrapped in hillside views and natural landscape that rests in the distance. Friendly and vibrant, this well-presented retreat offers couples or individual travellers a nice break, whether you are planning a romantic trip or a scenic adventure. The open-plan layout welcomes you on arrival, boasting a warm red interior, which flows from the kitchen area through to the lounge. Look forward to preparing those home cooked meals or early morning snacks here, then relax at the breakfast bar amongst the modern features. In the evening, you can choose from the selection of books, games or videos, and cosy up on the sofa for a delightful end to a busy day. Afterwards, make your way to the double bedroom, knitted together with lovely décor and soft lighting so you can unwind in comfort during your stay. The family bathroom comes as an all-white suite, boasting a bath with a shower over, so you can get ready ahead of your afternoon, or simply relax after the sunsets. For some 'me time', wander out to the decked patio area where you can unwind with a refreshing drink at your own leisure. Surrounded by wonderful scenery and Nithsdale and the Lowther Hills, there are plenty of opportunities to walk and cycle the ancient routes of Thornhill, as well as the trails of the Forest of Ae. Drumlanrig Castle is regarded as one of the finest examples of late 17th century Renaissance architecture in Scotland.

Nice secure garden which Charlie, our Cocker Spaniel loved. Lots of independent shops in Thornhill. Great location for exploring the Solway coast and the Southern Uplands, or further afield to Ayr, and a wander along tge Esplanade. Lovely walks by the banks of the River Nith

Photos do not do it justice. Keith was a great host, greeting us in arrival and had left bread, milk and shortcake biscuits as a welcome pack. Everything you need in the nearby village, pubs, restaurants, butchers, bakery and convenience store, local garage blew our tyre up for us. Secure garden to allow our dog to roam safely under a watchful eye. Comfortable seating, lovely big bed but not much room at either side, as a larger guy I had to proceed carefully getting in and out of bed.

This was SO much better than we had anticipated from the photos! A really comfortable and well-stocked holiday home. The owners had thought of everything; the kitchen had everything we needed, bed was comfy, shower was good, and a lovely welcome package. I couldn't recommend more! Thank you so much for our stay!
