Welcome to East Challoch Farm Dairy Cottage, semi-detached, a delightful self-catering farmhouse cottage set on the edge of East Challoch Farm, with country and sea views just outside the village of Dunragit and a short drive , 7mls from the bustling town of Stranraer in stunning Dumfries & Galloway, Scotland.

This traditional rural cottage offers a warm and inviting base for your countryside getaway, comfortably sleeping up to six guests — perfect for families, friends, or small groups seeking peace, comfort, and the charm of farm life.

Inside, the cottage blends classic farmhouse character with modern comforts. Upstairs you’ll find three cosy bedrooms, including one double room and two twin rooms, providing flexible sleeping arrangements for up to six people. Downstairs, a bathroom and separate shower room ensure convenience and privacy for all guests.

The heart of the home is the well-equipped kitchen/dining area, featuring traditional wooden cupboards and everything you need to prepare delicious home-cooked meals — whether it’s breakfast before a day of exploring or dinner after a coastal walk. Adjacent to this is the living room, a cosy space with an electric coal-effect fire, ideal for relaxing in after a day of adventure.

Outside, a spacious open garden at the rear of the cottage offers garden furniture for enjoying morning coffee in the sunshine or evening drinks al fresco. Guests are welcome to wander the surrounding farm grounds and see the resident farm animals and alpacas — though dogs, which are permitted, must be kept on a lead to respect the working farm environment.

The location is ideal for exploring the best of southwest Scotland. Just 2 mile away lies an excellent 18-hole links golf course on the shores of Luce Bay, with year-round play thanks to the region’s mild Gulf Stream climate. Nearby attractions include the Royal Botanic Garden at Port Logan, Castle Kennedy Gardens, and Glenwhan Gardens — all flourishing with seasonal blooms and scenic walks.

For nature lovers, the coastline offers quiet beaches and breathtaking coastal walks, while a short drive takes you to Logan Fish Pond and Marine Life Centre, a fascinating historical tidal pond and marine attraction.

East Challoch Farm Dairy Cottage combines traditional charm, farm-yard character, and a superb location — making it a truly memorable destination for your holiday.
