About this property
1 bedroom accommodation in Minnigaff, near Newton Stewart
This cosy cottage is perfect for a romantic getaway in south west Scotland for you and your loved one.. All on the Ground Floor:
Living/dining room: 34" Freeview TV, DVD Player, Woodburner
Kitchen: Electric Oven, Electric Hob, Microwave, Fridge/Freezer, Washing Machine
Bedroom: Kingsize (5ft) Bed
Shower Room: Cubicle Shower, Heated Towel Rail, Toilet. Electric central heating (solar panels), electricity, bed linen, towels and Wi-Fi included. Logs for wood burner available locally. . Courtyard with sitting-out area and garden furniture. Private parking for 1 car. No smoking. Please note: There is an unfecned river in the garden, 10 yards away.. Surrounded by similar cottages in Old Minnigaff, on the edge of Newton Stewart, this cosy, character filled, terraced riverbank cottage is located in a quiet courtyard. It is just a short stroll from the property to all the local amenities including pubs, restaurants and shops. The garden is set right on the riverbank and is perfect for spending endless hours watching the local wildlife, including kingfishers and otters, or just enjoying a glass of wine as the sun sets over the river. The wood burner in the living room and huge picture window means that even when it is raining you can still enjoy the outlook over the River Cree.
Newton Stewart lies on the southern edge of the Galloway Forest Park, which was Scotland’s first Dark Sky Park. If you go for a walk there in the day time you may meet red deer and wild goats that inhabit the area. The area is fantastic for walking, with rolling glens, forests and stunning coastline paths. For bikers there are two of the world famous 7stanes mountain bike trial centres close by at Glentrool and Kirroughtree. Scotland’s ’National Book Town’, Wigtown, is only 7 miles away. This quaint town has a large number of book shops where you can spend hours searching for that perfect holiday read. Wigtown Bay is also the largest Local Nature Reserve in Britain, with a wealth of wildlife, making it ideal for birdwatching. Kirkcudbright, Gatehouse of Fleet and Castle Douglas are also all close by. Beach 7 miles. Shop 300 yards, pub and restaurant 100 yards.
