Brae Cottage is set in the delightful village of Whithorn close to the stunning coastline of this lovely corner of Southwest Scotland. Brae Cottage is a lovely cosy little cottage given a new lease of life in 2022. The living room with its wood burning stove is a great place to curl up and enjoy a quiet evening after your day exploring. The modern kitchen is well equipped for you to whip up a meal and enjoy reminiscing over your day’s adventures in the dining room.
When the weather is fine the garden really is a joy with its views over the town to Wigtown Bay in the distance. Whithorn in the Machars Peninsula is a small rural town and has a few convenience shops, a recently refurbished pub and restaurant and in recent years has gained a reputation as a centre for artists and crafts people and hosts an annual Arts & Crafts Trail which showcases a wide range of work at various venues throughout the town.
The area surrounding Brae Cottage is breath-taking, from the rugged coastlines and secluded sandy beaches, to inland The Galloway Forest Park, Britain’s largest forest park with 300 square miles of wild beauty and where you will find the world renowned 7Stanes Mountain bike trail at Kirroughtree. A short 5-minute drive from Brae Cottage will take you to the Isle of Whithorn, an attractive little harbour village where you can sail, fish, or just sit and relax overlooking the bay while perhaps enjoying a meal or glass of wine in the pub or tearoom.
Visit Wigtown, which has officially been designated as Scotland’s National Book Town with a wide range of book related businesses, a book lovers haven. The larger town of Newton Stewart, known as the Gateway to the Galloway Hills, also has many excellent shops and places to eat. Brae Cottage really is ideally placed to enjoy your stay whether it be a relaxing or action-packed adventure.
