Garlieston House | Former Rectory within Galloway House Estate with sea views, HOT TUB and CABIN!

5 Bedroom House in Garlieston

Park Cottage is a carefully restored, listed former rectory within Galloway House Estate overlooking Wigtown Bay on the sheltered Dumfries and Galloway coast. Please see aerial video which is in the photo gallery. Not only can guests enjoy the beautiful main house, but also we have a new luxury "cabin" with seating for all and large patio doors opening to enjoy the sea view. Set among ancient trees with 21 private acres of parkland to enjoy, Park Cottage is a five star mix of antiques and modern luxury. With zip and link beds downstairs, most sleeping requirements can be catered for. In 1740, the Earl of Galloway chose this exceptionally sheltered bay to build his mansion and to develop a Capability Brown inspired garden. You can still make out the avenue where the rector rode his pony to the mansion house chapel. The stable is now our log store. Today our visitors can enjoy 21 private acres of this listed landscape with the sea and venerable trees to the east and open fields and the old laundry just visible to the south. Enjoy the brand new 6 person hot tub overlooking the sea and gaze up at the stars in one of the clearest night skies in the U.K. Britain's darkest skies . Over the fence and through the small field for a dip in the sea before breakfast! Little ones can head to the safe, sandy beach at Rigg Bay- an easy walk along the beautiful coastal path or take the car around to Rigg Bay car park- about 5 minutes around the corner. Then onwards to Cruggleton Castle ruin- a very rewarding walk with magnificent cliff-top views. This is a bird watchers haven with a wide variety along the coastline so bring binoculars! A detour on your homeward journey will bring you through delightful Galloway House Gardens-Park Cottage is a haven of tranquility and complete privacy to come back to after a day's adventuring or to enjoy on it's own merits.

Summary: From the moment we arrived we realised that we were in a very special house in a wonderful environment. We had the best family holiday ever with lots to do in the area from mountain biking to the gem museum at Creetown. The weather was sunny but with a chill wind but that did not deter excellent use of the Hot Tub and cabin with its stunning view.
