About The Experience

In a cleft of the Galloway hills, this holiday accommodation in Scotland is both cozy and well-located. You're welcome to explore the local villages, but we're sure you'll want to spend plenty of time at this accommodation in Scotland. Why? Because it's surrounded by spectacular views, woodlands, fields, and pastures. This is the perfect cottage holiday in Scotland for anyone who appreciates natural landscape.

Exterior Description

These properties form part of the 2,500 acre Crofts estate and are mid-way between the villages of Crocketford, Corsock and Kirkpatrick Durham. The county town of Dumfries is 10 miles away.

Standing 600 feet above sea level in a cleft of the Galloway hills, the properties enjoy spectacular views towards the Solway Firth and Cumbrian hills beyond. The tree-clad hill behind rises to a magnificent rocky outcrop known as the King's Chair. Guests are welcome to roam freely through the Estate's woodland walks, fields and upland pastures. Features include the Martyrs Memorial, 3 lochs (lakes) and a prehistoric fort. Fly fishing is available exclusively for guests on Areeming Loch.

Norbert House, Norbert Cottage, Gardener's Cottage, and Stables Cottage are the four properties we offer in this superb location.
