Repentance View
It's called Repentance View. It's a big, detached farmhouse near Kelhead, right down in the south of Scotland.
It sleeps ten people across four bedrooms. There are two bathrooms. It's got a 4 Star grading, which means it's well equipped and comfortable. The sitting room is big, with those large picture windows that open onto the garden. You can just step outside.
The garden is large and enclosed, which is good if you've got kids or a dog. There's outdoor furniture and a barbecue.
A couple of things to mention plainly. The property is on a working farm, so you can't walk around the farmyards or fields. And while it's a farmhouse, the stairs inside are a standard sort of staircase, not a steep cottage spiral.
You're in a proper rural spot here. The views are the main thing. You look out over fields towards the Solway Firth, and on a clear day you can see the Lake District hills in the distance.
Annan is a few miles away for shops and supermarkets. Lockerbie is about the same distance. Dumfries is the main town, maybe a twenty minute drive. That's where you'll find bigger shops and the Robert Burns heritage sites.
If you head towards the coast, there are little places like Southerness, Rockcliffe and Kippford. They're good for a walk and a chip supper. The coastline here has sandy beaches and quiet bits.
For a day out, Caerlaverock Castle is a good one. Drumlanrig Castle is further, but impressive if you like that sort of thing. The gardens at Threave are worth a visit if the weather's decent.
In terms of what's here, it's got a wood burning stove, WiFi, a TV, parking for a few cars, and all your bedding and towels are included. There's a cot and a highchair if you need them.
