About this house rental
Nestled in 19acres of grounds Auchenhay Manor House boasts views of the Solway coastline. Just 4 miles from the centre of Kirkcudbright, a thriving fishing town with artists fairs held across the summer and full of cafes and local shops. Auchenhay also offers an ideal location to explore the whole of Scotlands South west coast. The whole house has been recently renovated to offer guests a luxury stay in one of the most beautiful areas of coastline. The west wing is named The Duchy, and originally formed the main kitchen and servants areas. It has now been fully converted to offer luxurious accommodation. There are 2 large bedrooms, the Master bedroom boasts a Superking bed (can become two full sized single beds),a sofa, a 50" tv and an ensuite toilet. The second bedroom has a supering bed (again, can be spilt into two full sized single beds) and a 50" tv. Both bedrooms also have wardrobes, bedside tables and seating. There is a large family bathroom with large shower and freestanding bath. Downstairs is a downstairs toilet,fully equipped kitchen (with dishwasher and washer/dryer) all modern cooking utensils, coffee machine, fridge freezer and microwave. The lounge has two large leather sofas, a log burner and a 45" tv along with a large central coffee table. The property also boasts a log fired hot tub outside which can be warm within 3 hours of lighting, a gas barbecue and plenty of outside seating. Auchenhay House has a private driveway leading through 5 acres of secluded woodland. To the south of the house is a further 14 acres of land to walk. We have resident buzzards, kites, barn owls, tawny owls and long eared owls along with rabbits and deer that enjoy the area. Locally there is a huge amount to do with beaches within minutes of the house, golf course, fly and sea fishing, and a number of local towns and villages providing amenities and a range of local foods. Sorry no pets permitted.

We needed an upscale, comfortable place with two separate bedrooms for my wife and I and her parents while visiting my mum in Dalbeattie. The Duchy Manor wing was perfect. Nicely appointed and clean. Everything upgraded and modernized. Beautiful location with view of the ocean. It worked out perfectly for us. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again if we're in the area. Martin and Sue are wonderful hosts. - We also fell in love with the pot bellied pigs !

Lovely spacious accomodation with views over farmland to the sea in the distance.
Owners were very friendly, greeting us when we arrived. the accomodation had every thing you would need to make your stay comfortable.
unfortunately we had to cut our stay short due to a medical emercency. The owners were very sympathetic and offered us a discount if we were to book again in the future. This was very generous because this was no fault of their own and they would still have to make the property good for their next visitors.

A lovely property a few minutes drive from Kirkcudbright. Very spacious and comfortable.
My only minor criticism is that there was no kitchen roll or washing-up liquid!
I regard these as essentials.
Otherwise well equipped. Owners on hand if you needed them but not intrusive.

Fantastic Holiday Home
Fantastic Holiday Home
Beautiful house which is tastefully decorated and a touch of luxury with large bedrooms and luxurious bathrooms. Everything you needed was provided including wood for the wood fired hot tub. There is plenty of space outdoors for you to use with a seating area and large grassed area. The views from the house are phenomenal with views over rolling fields to the sea in the distance. It was out of this world. Animals live in the field a few feet from the house including the owners pigs which gave us great entertainment and are really friendly. The hot tub was pretty easy to use, but did require a bit of forward planning. We absolutely loved our stay in this house and I would go as far as saying it is the best holiday cottage we have stayed in. You will definitely love it there.

The Duchy is a lovely property, annexed-off from the main house. Log burners, comfy beds, window seats, hot tub, and lovely hosts- all were highlights for us. Lots of outside space to run around or say hello to the animals and wildlife. We’ll definitely be staying again.

From substantial heavy pots and pans (no cheap aluminium lightweights here) to airfield-sized beds and luxurious bathroom, the quality shines through. The attitude of the proprietors was most friendly and warm without being overbearing - if you could get a weather to match it, you'd be on a winner!

Fantastic Luxury!
Fantastic Luxury!
The owners greeted us for our stay and could not have been more welcoming! The house is luxurious and the kitchen was well appointed, we were even able to cook a New Year's Eve dinner.
The main bathroom is so nice, who wouldn't want to lock themselves away with a glass of wine and a book to soak.
The views are amazing and the peace and quiet was just what we needed after a hectic Christmas. We absolutely LOVED the log burner and the hot tub was a delight!
There are a lot of things do nearby, walks, cafes pubs. Or just make the most of the beautiful house and its grounds. Our daughter loved checking in on the pigs!
Thanks so much for letting us stay and making us feel welcome!
