Cottage 2

Cottage 2 is situated in the grounds of the 18th century Dumfries House, part of the Princes Foundation which is home to an unrivalled collection of Chippendale furniture. The 2000-acre estate has been beautifully designed with stunning walks throughout the grounds. This is a charming cottage that is the perfect hideaway for two, and features a very comfortable living room with 32" flat screen television with Freesat viewing, dining area and a stylish kitchen equipped with everything you would need during your stay. There is also a separate toilet on the ground floor. The upstairs bedroom has a luxury super kingsize bed and en- suite bathroom. The bathroom features a cast iron roll-top bath, separate double shower, twin wash hand basins and toilet. This is a delightful cottage that is designed with indulgence in mind.

Ayrshire has a stunning coastline and is home to the Ayrshire Coastal Path, very popular with walkers. Crowned with a superb backdrop of the ever-changing profile of the mountains of Arran across the Firth of Clyde, this coastline is steeped in history and teeming with wildlife and is a haven for bird watchers. Ayrshire is also known as "Burns’ Country, " and is steeped in tradition and history. Visit Burns Cottage, The Burns Memorial Museum and the Brig o’ Doon, the bridge from the famous poem Tam o’ Shanter.

There are many ruined castles to explore, such as Dunure, Turnberry and Greenan. A visit and tour to Culzean Castle, designed by Robert Adams and truly one of his masterpieces, is one not to be missed with its dramatic clifftop location. Visit the world-famous Turnberry Resort just a short drive and in addition to golf has a fantastic spa and outdoor centre. The Galloway Forest Park is only a 30-minute drive away and is Britain’s largest forest park with 300 square miles of wild beauty waiting to be explored. The park boasts tranquil valleys, rugged rock faces, forest, moorland, lochs and ancient woodland and a huge diversity of wildlife including red and roe deer, wild goats and many birds of prey. The park has also been awarded the status of one of only four Dark Sky Parks in the western world and when the sun sets, enthusiasts come to wonder at the universe revealed above.

The pretty seaside towns of Prestwick and Troon are close by and there are very good rail links for a trip to the cosmopolitan city of Glasgow and historic Edinburgh. The islands of Cumbrae, Arran and Bute are all easily reached for a day out, while day trips to Ireland can be taken from Cairnryan. Loch Lomond and the Trossachs National Park is just over an hour’s drive and is well worth a visit.

Cottage 2 can be booked together with Cottage 1 and Doocot Apartment to accommodate up to 12 guests.
