Violet Grove is a beautifully presented, semi-detached cottage, fully refurbished in 2019, set quietly back from the road with stunning views over the Carlingwark Loch. With a cosy wood burner in the open plan living space and a large picture window to the front taking in the view of the loch, this is the perfect place to relax after a day enjoying this delightful, unspoilt corner of Dumfries and Galloway. An added bonus is that the cottage is just minutes from the centre of the ’food town’ of Castle Douglas. This small, delightful market town offers an array of independent shops selling produce and quality gifts.
If you want to explore more of this beautiful area then you are in luck as attractions are in abundance, from beautiful sandy beaches to dramatic cliff tops. With sailing, swimming, horse riding, fishing, golf, boat trips and water sports all close by, there is something for everyone. Warmed by the Gulf Stream, there are many beautiful gardens to visit including National Trust Threave Garden. Close to the Galloway Forest Park, home to the first Dark Sky Park in Europe, and central to 5 of the 7Stanes, at Kirroughtree Forest and Dalbeattie Forest, it is a popular location for cyclists and mountain bikers. Kirroughtree has some of the best technical single track mountain bike trails in Scotland. Beach 13 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant 400 yards.
