Immaculately presented detached cottage tucked away in a mature woodland garden with fine views across neighbouring farmland to the hills beyond.
Linnet Lodge is a well-positioned country cottage located a short distance from the market town of Castle Douglas. The property has been beautifully refurbished and extended by the current proprietors providing light, bright, spacious accommodation throughout.
Castle Douglas is a thriving Galloway market town, lying approximately 18 miles south-west of Dumfries and enjoying an enviable range of shops and other facilities in a town now promoted as a “Food Town”. The town also has a wide range of facilities including excellent primary and secondary schools, modern Health Centre, supermarkets and a thriving community run theatre, The Fullarton, nearby.
The Dumfries and Galloway Region is renowned for its beautiful countryside with rolling pastures broken by stone dykes and amenity woodland with a rugged coastline. Benefiting from the Gulf Stream, the general climate is mild and there are consequently many beautiful gardens nearby including the National Trust Gardens at Threave.
