We absolutely loved our stay and would recommend to anyone looking to get away to relax in comfort and peace. Our dog had a ball too - she made great use of the paddock across from The Bothy.

The Bothy is utterly stunning. The decor & soft furnishings are divine. You could not wish to wake up in a better place. The attention to detail & thought put in to the conversion is second to none. The location for exploring Dumfries & Galloway is perfect only a stones throw from Moffat, Castle Douglas & Dumfries. A big Tesco in Lockerbie & the buRead moretchery for local meats & provisions. Trains every two hours for a day trip to Edinburgh. What more could anyone want. We will be back Hide
