About this cottage rental

Set in gardens with a delightful stream and pond, enjoy woodland walks and hillside trails and fishing on a nearby loch.. "Idyllically set on a 3000-acre estate..."

Enjoying an idyllic situation on the 3000-acre Crofts Estate, surrounded by the Galloway Hills, these holiday cottages have enviable, dramatic views towards the Solway Firth and Cumbrian Hills beyond. Accessed along a private drive, and adjoining a cluster of well-maintained estate buildings, Stable Cottage (ref UUD) makes a romantic hideaway for two, offering stylishly furnished accommodation – its walls adorned with the original work of various Scottish artists. The larger Victorian detached Gardener’s Cottage (ref UXT) has been elegantly furnished, and features an attractive shared garden with a bridge over a burn and a small waterfall. Arkland Mill (ref STTZ) stands detached with a lovely large garden, a summerhouse and its own bridge over the stream. Marwhin House (SWWR) and Marwhin Cottage (ref SWWS) also stand detached, situated within 25 yards of each other, still with there own privacy, the latter two properties being set in gardens with a delightful stream and pond. Woodland walks and hillside trails radiate from the doorstep. Dumfries lies just 12 miles away, where there are plenty of shops, restaurants and museums, as well as a good theatre. Castle Douglas (8 miles) is a traditional market town with individual shops specialising in food and local produce. There are many beautiful beaches within easy reach along the Solway, and the National Trust Threave Gardens, 8 miles, makes for an interesting day out. Other tourist attractions in the area include the Galloway Kite Trail, the Galloway Forest Park and golf courses and museums in Dumfries. Village shop and pub within 4 miles..

Lovely location and very clean.
10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Aug 2025
Fantastic location, so enjoyed seeing variety of small birds in trees from house then, red kites & buzzards souring around each morning as we stepped out of the cottage. The cottage was probably the best ‘doggy cottage’ we have stayed in over the last 10 yrs. Was very comfortable, clean & fulfilled all our needs. It had true character wished we’d been able to stay longer.

Superb cottage, must be the fourth time we have been, highly recommended, lot of local wildlife seen from the picture windows, Red Kites, Red Squirrels, Pheasants, Partridge, Roe Deer and various other birds / mammals etc. Always clean and tidy, plenty of fire wood for the chilly evenings.
