Anne's cottage, located in Polbae, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland, offers a spacious and comfortable self-catering experience, accommodating up to four guests with one ensuite King bedroom and a sofa bed in the TV area. The well-fitted kitchen and dining area enhance the experience, making it an ideal retreat for couples or young families. The cottage is part of the Waterside collection, which features four self-catering options, all set within an expansive 18-acre rural haven. The proximity to the renowned Galloway Forest Park, just 10 minutes away, adds to the appeal of this secluded getaway.
Waterside is bordered by the river Bladnoch, which not only provides a picturesque setting but also offers excellent fishing opportunities for both migratory and non-migratory species, available free of charge with the owner's consent. This unique location attracts various outdoor enthusiasts, including hunters, anglers, and nature lovers. Although hunting is not permitted on the grounds, nearby syndicates operate within a short distance, making it convenient for those interested in the sport.
Astronomy and astrophotography enthusiasts will find Waterside particularly appealing, as the nearby Galloway Forest has been designated a gold tier dark sky park, offering breathtaking stargazing conditions. With Bortle 2 skies, visitors can enjoy remarkable dark skies right at the cottage, making it an excellent spot for night sky observation. Additionally, walkers and mountain bikers can explore the famous trails in Dumfries and Galloway, including the 7 Stanes routes and the Southern Upland Way, which passes right by Waterside, providing opportunities for both ambitious and casual outdoor activities.
Golfers will also appreciate the location, as Dumfries and Galloway boasts over 30 golf courses, with a “Gateway to golf pass” available for multiple rounds at participating courses. The nearest golf course is just a 10-minute drive away in Newton Stewart, offering an 18-hole course with stunning views. Families and couples seeking a tranquil escape from daily life will find Waterside ideal, whether they plan outdoor adventures or simply wish to unwind amidst nature's beauty, with local attractions like Luce Sands and Glenwhan Gardens enhancing the overall experience.
