Whilst you may wish to just stay at the cottage to enjoy the beach there are also local coastal walks to Castle Point or to the popular sailing centre of Kippford with its two well-known hotels for eating and dining, both overlooking the Estuary making them ideal places for enjoying a quiet evening drink while watching activities on the river. The cottage makes an excellent base for exploring South West Scotland with its outstanding natural beauty of rolling hills, open countryside and wonderful woods and forests. Wildlife abounds throughout and can be enjoyed by all whilst taking walks or cycling through the Forestry Commission Woodlands or indeed at local reserves such as RSPB Merserhead or Wildfowl Wetlands Trust at Caerlaverock.
Leisure pursuits such as golf, pony riding, cycling is all well catered for with numerous local golf courses to meet all standards including a testing championship links course at Southerness.

A lovely, comfortable cottage in a beautiful location. The cottage had everything we required for the short time we were there.
Would highly recommend Primrose Cottage.
This cottage had everything you need and more it catered to your every need.
The location was just around the corner from a lovely beach and also a nice woodland walk to the village of Kippford.
We really didn’t want our holiday to end it was so relaxing will definitely be back.
Lovely small cosy cottage a minute’s walk from beautiful Rockcliffe Beach. Well situated for walks and exploring Dumfries and Galloway. No local amenities in the village but plenty a short drive away. Fabulous night skies on a clear night. We had a brilliant week exploring the area by car and would highly recommend the deer safari at Bailnloch Deer Park less than 10 minutes drive away
