| This Victorian stone built detached cottage has the most amazing views of the Galloway Hills and Luce Bay. Craigdhu Croft is situated in the rolling Wigtownshire countryside known locally as the Machars. Galloway is a popular destination for holidaymakers wanting to escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and unwind with fishing, walking, cycling in one of the most beautiful, yet relatively undiscovered corners of Scotland. The Galloway Forest Park is the largest in the UK with three hundred square miles of lochs and moor lands, seashore to mountain tops. Why not visit one of the visitor centres at Glentrool, Kirroughtree and Clatteringshaws to discover more. In fact these centres are three of the recognized viewing sites for stargazing as the park has been awarded a Dark Sky Park making it one of the best places in the world to stargaze. Galloway has some amazing wildlife from red deer, otters, black grouse, red kites and red squirrels! For the cyclist there is mile after mile of quiet roads and some seriously amazing mountain bike trails from beginner to adrenaline seeker. For those who like all things nautical there are wide expanses of lovely sandy beaches including St Medan at Monreith where the author Gavin Maxwell was often seen exercising his tame otter. There is a memorial to the author in the form of a lovely bronze otter overlooking the bay. St. Medan has a family friendly golf course overlooking Luce Bay. Here also lies the ruins of Kirkmaiden church, one of the oldest churches in Scotland. The chin cough, well located on the beach below, is supposed to have a magical healing influence on illnesses especially whooping cough. The area is steeped in history and Barsalloch Point has evidence of human encampments as early as 6000 BC. Cup and Ring markings can be found at various locations and several groups of standing stones. Scotlands most southerly distillery at Bladnoch has been producing the Spirit of the Lowlands since 1817. Whatever time of year there is always something to attract everyone with various festivals of Folk and Blues, Country and Western at Creetown, Newton Stewart walking festival. Wigtown as Scotlands National Book Town has always something of interest. The weather too is a surprise as we are touched by the Gulf Stream and have a very temperate climate and this is in evidence everywhere you look from formal gardens to the wild flowers. Lets not forget the fisherman who really are spoiled for choice with the county offering some excellent salmon and trout fishing with shower enclosure, WC and wash basin |
