Burnside is a charming 19th century cottage just 15 minutes from Wigtown. You’ll find it tucked away in traquil valley surrounded by rolling green fields. There’s no other house close by. Just you, the wildlife and the view. Enjoy a drink in the enclosed garden while trying to spot dozens of varieties of local birds. BBQ a lobster caught by local fishermen or wander down to the pretty fishing village of Port William just over a mile away. Burnside sleeps five in three bedrooms and is available all year. It has everything you need for a short or long stay.
One of the former byres of Borrowmoss Farm has been carefully converted to provide three lovely single-storey self catering holiday cottages. They can be booked individually or as a whole to accommodate larger groups (maximum 12 people). The enclosed garden provides a safe place for children to play.
