About this cottage rental
Situated on the 6000-acre Lincluden Estate, on the edge of moors and woodland, with sandy beaches and lovely gardens nearby. This property is situated on a working farm.. 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.

10.0 / 10.0Outstanding·Oct 2020
We had hoped for a very peaceful and relaxing break, surrounded by stunning scenery and that is exactly what we got! We walked for miles and were lucky enough to never get wet once. The Granary was quite remote but that suited us just fine and despite the comments by some previous guests about the lack off Wi-Fi, we had no problem whatsoever - internet all week!!
The only things to mention are that there isn't enough hot water to fill the huge bath and that access to the decked area was external and via a dirty barn, meaning that a morning coffee wasn't really an option. That said, we will return, as the positives far outweighed any negatives.

Very comfortable cosy well equipped cottage. In a beautiful remote location, though Dumfries is only nine miles away.
A wood burning stove would put icing on the cake.

A lovely cottage in a beautiful location. The only let down is the lack of WiFi.
