About this cottage rental
In a peaceful and secluded valley with only sheep and cattle, this detached family farmhouse is situated on a private estate and working farm, which has wonderful views over open countryside.. Situated on the 6000-acre Lincluden Estate, these three detached properties are presented to the highest standards. They are located in remote settings on the edge of the moors with delightful woodland walks and hillside trails up into forests. It is an area hugely popular with walkers and cyclists of all abilities, and the Dalbeattie 7 Stanes cycling trail is also close by. There are many sandy beaches and forest trails to explore and many lovely gardens nearby as well for those seeking a slower pace of recreation.
The surrounding area offers a tremendous range of activities for the visitor. Golf courses, sailing, horse riding, cycling and walking are all available close by, and there are tennis courts and swimming-pools in nearby Kirkcudbright, Castle Douglas and Dumfries. Fishing is available by arrangement at Glen Kiln Loch with the first day free of charge (any days after are chargeable at £8 per adult and £4 per child/OAP). Many quaint villages await exploration including the coastal villages of the Isle of Whithorn, Port William (known as the Machars of Galloway and presented with the Pride of Galloway award) and the popular village of Portpatrick with stunning views over the North Channel to the Irish coast. A trip to Ireland from Stranraer also makes for a good day out. Dumfries, with shops, restaurants, museums and theatre, lies 10 miles away, while Castle Douglas, Scotland’s Food Town (8 miles), is a traditional market town with shops specialising in local produce. There are also many beautiful beaches for holidaymakers to enjoy. Shop 5 miles, pub 5½ miles.

It’s a lovely house and place and we go every year. We’ve booked next year again. We love it there as we are into peace, scenery and tranquility if that’s your thing. You will love it also. The house inside is getting in a little but it’s still an amazing place x

Back for our 5th stay, with our mountain bikes this time. Fabulous stay as always. New mattress in the master bedroom was great and the house looks really smart as it's been repainted outside.
Some beautiful weather but it did turn nippy so we caved in & put on the heating. Would be great if there was a wood burning stove as open fires may feel romantic but really trigger my asthma! Also gives an option for cooking if the aga ever has a hissy fit.
Can't wait to go back next year.

This was our second visit to The Glen Farmhouse - 4 Adults & two grandchildren aged 4 & 6 years.
Once again we really enjoyed our stay and the walks and the wildlife from the cottage.
The only point that we would add is that some of the furniture and decoration are now in need of a re-fresh...to justify the cost of the rental.
