Walk beside picturesque rivers and lochs from this single-storey, dog-friendly cottage in scenic southern Scotland. Sleeping six guests, this three-bedroom holiday home is situated at Auldgirth, 10 miles from Dumfries. Play games with your pup out in the attractive garden, then unwind together and take in the rolling green vistas.
Let your waggy-tailed chum lead the way into this homely hideaway after exciting excursions into your Scottish surroundings. Leave your walking boots and his dog lead in the hall, then let him pad through to the lounge to make himself comfortable on the thick shagpile rug. Sink back into a plump leather seat as you enjoy a cup of tea and a slice of delicious Dundee cake. Flick through the channels on the TV as your contented canine steals 40 winks. The spacious kitchen/diner has been arranged to ensure you can cook up magnificent Scottish feasts with ease before gathering round the table. There is ample room for your four-legged friend’s food and water bowls here too. As the sun goes down over Scotland, show him to his bed and make your way off to yours. Leading from the hall are two airy double bedrooms and a cosy bunk room that the younger members of your party will love. The family shower room is conveniently located close by. Sip your first cup of tea of the day out in the garden while your happy hound noses about. While away summer afternoons out here, enjoying the scenery and throwing a ball for your pal. There is private, off-road parking for three cars.
