The cottage is ideally located in Haugh of Urr, an ideal base to explore all that the stunning region of Dumfries & Galloway has to offer.

In the village itself, The Laurie Arms, an award winning local pub, serves fantastic meals and is a short drive from the cottage and a brisk 15 minute walk.

The town of Dalbeattie is only 6 minutes drive from Haugh of Urr, here you will find supermarkets, restaurants, cafe's and a selection of independently run shops.

Castle Douglas (known as the regions 'food town') is a short 9 minute drive, again with independent shops, wonderful restaurants and Tesco supermarket. And with an artisan bakery, 3 award winning butchers, a craft beer shop, a choclatier and an Ice Cream and Confectioners you'll quickly discover how it has earned it's food town status.

The wonderful Solway Coast (often referred to as the Scottish Riviera), is just a short 12 minute drive from the cottage, with beautiful harbor villages such as Kippford and the stunning sandy beach of Sandy Hills it is truly a fantastic place to spend long warm days (we get more in Scotland than you may think!).
