A beautiful, detached Victorian-style villa which has been tastefully refurbished with a contemporary feel, situated in the hamlet of Colvend on the outskirts of the seaside village of Sandyhills.

This lovingly restored villa has a private garden and views towards White Loch. Family or friends will love this location; it is perfect for keen bikers, golfers and sailing enthusiasts and those who just want to switch off and get away from reality. Known as ‘The Secret Coast’, there is a pottery studio and a farm shop close by and as well as nearby coastal paths and there is a lovely forest walk from Colvend to Dalbeattie which is worth exploring.

There is a more formal lounge off the kitchen area which has views towards White Loch, as well as a Smart TV and and wood burner-effect electric fire. The kitchen is made even brighter with the large roof skylights and is equipped with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine.

On the first floor there is a king-size bedroom with dual aspect windows offering views over the open countryside and garden. Also on this floor is a small shower room with shower and WC and a pretty twin bedroom with views over towards the loch.

We loved our stay at Loch View cottage. It's privacy cleanliness, comfort and everything you'll need for a home from home. It's a great base to visit interesting places like Caerlaverock Castle, New Abbey, Kirkcudbright, Merse Head RSPB beach (outstanding), Rockcliffe 10mins walk away and stunning. Kippford, beautiful. Enjoyed making happy memoriesRead more for our two teenagers and hopefully they will still want to come on holiday with us for the foreseeable! Thank you. X Hide

An attractive and exceptionally well equipped house with plenty of space. I would recommend this house for couples and families with older children or non mobile babies as I think Id be nervous of the stairs inside and out with small children.There is a useful village shop within walking distance but you have to drive into Kipford for any opportuniRead morety to eat and drink out.
