This bright two-bedroom property with a wood burner and a dog-friendly enclosed garden is ideal for a small family or couple plus two canine companions. Soak up your rural surroundings, with the winding River Annan and the dramatic Hoddom Castle on the doorstep. Spend your time by the coast, sniffing out the local historic landmarks and visiting the surrounding southern Scottish towns.

As you enter the property, you’ll find yourself in the spacious kitchen with an electric range oven, a farmhouse-style fitted kitchen unit, and neutral-toned decor throughout. After cooking a hearty meal for your loved ones, tuck in at the table in the dining room with a wood burner – which is flooded with natural light through the tall windows. Sip your morning coffee in the sunny conservatory porch and relax in the bright and airy living room with wooden furnishings and a plump sofa. Also on the ground floor are a family shower room and a utility room. Upstairs, you’ll find two king-size zip-and-link bedrooms which can be made up as twins on request. Outside is an enclosed garden with furniture.

During your stay in the small settlement of Hoddom in Dumfries and Galloway, you could start your day with a dog walk along the River Annan before stopping at the grand Hoddom Castle (0.5 miles). Visit the hilltop historic Repentance Tower (1.5 miles) or one of Scotland’s great medieval castles, Caerlaverock Castle (15.5 miles). Head to the dog-friendly Powfoot Beach (7.5 miles) and stroll along the sandy shores. Spend an afternoon discovering the royal roots of Annan town (5.5 miles) and taste the local cuisine at one of the independent eateries.

Beautiful property in a great location. Quiet and private, yet close enough to the pub/restaurant and shop. Great for dogs - garden is fully enclosed, and there's plenty of great walks nearby. Cottage is big and spacious, lots of nice places to sit.

The cottage was perfect. Spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable with everything we needed for our weeks stay. Very quiet location on the Hoddom Caravan Park Estate, away from the caravans and camping. Only issues were tv reception hit and miss and bad Wi-Fi connection, this could be due to location of property.

We loved staying in Hoddom Gardens and would happily stay again. The house is very large and comfortable with everything you'd need, and the location was ideal for us: quiet, but there's the caravan park nearby if you want the facilities.

Hoddom Gardens was a fantastic base for exploring Dumfries and Galloway. The cottage was set in a quiet spot but within easy reach of local amenities. It was lovely and clean with what felt like a fairly recent refurbishment. It was well appointed and had everything we needed, we would definitely recommend and likely book again in the future.

A lovely home that is quiet large for only a 2 bedroom home. Enclosed well looked after garden, with access to other parts of the estate. Our dog was so confused that we were in different rooms further apart than he was used to. Lovely and quite, also great for listening to the owls and watching the bats flying around
