Retreat to this gorgeous one-bedroom cottage in Hoddom, Dumfries and Galloway, and enjoy sweet seclusion with your beloved and two of your best furry friends. Sleeping just two guests, this enticing holiday home nestles in an idyllic setting within 9,000-acre grounds and is perfect for a couple. Explore the area to your heart’s content, with your happy hounds at your heel; follow footpaths through undulating countryside and trails through magnificent forest. Return to the single-storey property to light the wood burner or unwind in the fresh air while the pups enjoy the garden.
Call your perfect pets in through the hall and into the lounge. Settle them in front of a crackling wood burner while you find your favourite programme on the Smart TV. Discover there is also a double sofa bed in here if needed. Head through to the kitchen to feed your four-legged friends and to whip up a romantic meal for two with the delicious Scottish produce you have sourced on your excursions. Find you also have a useful washing machine in here. After dinner, take the pups for a turn around the garden before indulging in a hot shower and heading off to the double bedroom. Take morning coffee in the sunroom on warm days, with the door open so your cheerful chums can pad in and out; dine outside on fine days. There is plenty of parking at the cottage.
Enjoy a 2-mile circular walk from Hoddom Bridge, 1 mile away, taking in Repentance Tower, which dates back to the 1560s, and Hoddom Castle. Drive 6 miles to Eskrigg Reserve where dogs on leads can accompany you along woodland trails or drive 8.5 miles to Loch Maben for a 4-mile circuit of Castle Loch, taking in a wooded sculpture trail and Lochmaben Castle.
