3 Bed in Kirkcudbright (oc-d671636)

This beautiful period holiday home is in the lively fishing port of Kirkcudbright in Dumfries and Galloway. The spacious property welcomes six guests, with large social spaces and a vibrant cottage garden for outdoor entertaining. Kirkcudbright is a picturesque town with pastel-coloured houses and dramatic coastal scenery. The town is a magnet for artists, and you can spend time exploring local galleries or following the Arts and Crafts Trail. You’ll be within easy reach of some truly stunning beaches, including the secluded, unspoilt Carrick Beach (9 miles) – the perfect place to get away from it all and embrace nature. Heading inland, you’ll find the historic town of Castle Douglas (9.5 miles), known for its fine array of independent eateries showcasing local produce. For outdoor enthusiasts, Galloway Forest Park is 20 miles away, where you’ll find magnificent mountain scenery, serene lochs, and endless walking/cycling trails.

The four-storey townhouse features original wooden floorboards, ornamental fireplaces, and characterful sash windows framing views of MacLellan’s Castle and the vibrant quayside. The classic decor is in keeping with the period of the property, with delicate floral patterns and a collection of antique-style furniture, set alongside more contemporary touches to make your stay as comfortable as possible. Enter the holiday home via the tiled entrance porch, where you can store coats and boots, before heading upstairs to the first floor. Here, you’ll find an inviting lounge with comfortable seating and a Smart TV for enjoying family movie nights at the end of a busy day. There’s also a study on this floor, with views of the chapel, for those needing to catch up with work whilst away. The social hub of the house is a spacious kitchen/diner where you can prepare delicious feasts for the group and all eat together at the elegant dining table. Just off the kitchen/diner is a small utility room and completing this level is a gorgeous family bathroom with an original cast-iron, roll-top bath. Three beautiful bedrooms are located upstairs on the second floor. Choose from two delightful king-size bedrooms or a cosy double. Rounding off this level is a handy WC. Please note, the second floor has sloping ceilings, and you may experience restricted head height in some areas. The basement of the property offers space to store bikes and outdoor gear.

To the rear of the property is an immaculate ‘secret’ walled garden, accessed via a cobbled path. The garden is a real sun trap and has a furnished patio for al fresco dining on warm evenings. There is a large lawn where children can play, surrounded by colourful borders and flower beds. There’s also a vegetable patch and guests are welcome to enjoy the seasonal produce from the garden. On-street parking is subject to availability, and there is also a public carpark nearby (300 metres).
