House - Sleeps 6 - Pet Friendly - Parking | House in Castle Douglas
3 Bedroom House in Auchencairn, Castle Douglas
Welcome to Bridgend Cottage, a spacious and characterful home in the heart of the coastal village of Auchencairn, one of Dumfries & Galloway's hidden gems.
Sleeping up to six guests, the cottage is ideal for couples, families, walkers, cyclists, nature lovers and dog owners looking for a peaceful escape close to the Solway Coast.
Unlike many holiday rentals, Bridgend Cottage is a much-loved home rather than a purpose-furnished holiday let. Filled with books, artwork and personal touches, it offers comfort, character and plenty of space to relax after a day exploring this beautiful corner of southwest Scotland.
Guests particularly love the large mature garden, where a stream runs alongside the property and there are several places to sit and enjoy the peace and quiet. There is outdoor dining for six, comfortable garden seating and a fire pit for long summer evenings under some of Scotland's most spectacular skies.
Inside, the house offers two separate sitting rooms, each with its own wood-burning stove, making it equally appealing in every season. Whether you're returning from a coastal walk, curling up with a book beside the fire or sharing supper in the garden, Bridgend Cottage is designed for people who enjoy slowing down and making the most of their surroundings.
