Anne's is a spacious and comfortable cottage designed to make self catering an enjoyable experience. After your adventures exploring all Dumfries & Galloway has to offer this is a perfect place to rest and recover. Anne's has an ensuite King bedroom, a well fitted kitchen/dining area as well as a TV area including a sofa bed. This cottage is ideal for couples or a young family. Waterside boasts 4 self catering cottages in total. Located within 10 minutes of the famous Galloway Forest Park. It is a secluded rural haven set in 18 acres of grounds with the river Bladnoch running along the perimeter providing fantastic fishing opportunities. Nature and wildlife are truly on your doorstep. But despite being “in the middle of nowhere” Newton Stewart and all its amenities are located just 9 miles away. Below is a non exhaustive list of who will enjoy Waterside and the surrounding areas: Hunters - Although we don't permit hunting on the grounds a number of syndicates operate in the area within a short distance and often base themselves from Waterside. Anglers - The river Bladnoch which runs along the perimeter of the property provides excellent fishing for both migratory and non-migratory species. This is available onsite free of charge with the owners prior consent. Astronomy/Astrophotography -The nearby Galloway Forest has since 2009 been designated a gold tier dark sky park due to its breath taking and rare stargazing conditions. Those conditions are almost replicated at Waterside with bortle 2 skies, this provides incredible dark skies for astronomy and astrophotography enthusiasts. Walkers/Mountain Bikers – Dumfries and Galloway is famed for its mountain bike routes including the most spectacular rides of the 7 Stanes, Glentrool is either 20 minutes by car or a little warm up bike ride, through the forest and heath lands past Ochiltree loch. The Kirroughtree trails are also within reach via a 30 minute drive. The Southern Upland Way route goes right past Waterside. A suitable stop off for both ambitious walkers transiting the route in its entirety and shorter more exploratory walkers looking to visit Laggangarn and the Wells of Rees or in the opposite direction to Bargrennan. Golfers – Dumfries and Galloway boasts over 30 golf courses and the tourist board offers a “Gateway to golf pass” for 3, or 6 rounds on any of the 26 participating courses. The nearest being a 10 minute drive away in Newton Stewart, a 18 hole 5,806 yard course (par69) which has spectacular views from each hole. Waterside’s location offers the golf enthusiast a great rural escape with great golf just a short journey in multiple directions. Families/Couple's - If you just want to get away from the chaos of everyday then Waterside is ideal.

Jul 13, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Perfect spot Although rurally located (this is Scotland) the cottages offer access within 45 mins to many differing attractions. We enjoyed the owners excellent advice on coastal trips, high hill ranges in national park, local walks with loch swims and secluded beaches. The local town of Newton Stewart is classical delightful. Highly recommend. Would’ve liked a separate shower or screen on bath and hot water controls good when mastered. Bed super comfy and fire pit fun. ##### Nicola M.

We were only able to stay one night due to our itinerary. The cottage was tidy and neat with a comfortable bed. The owner was super helpful with directions to property. He went out of his way to bring a left item to Cairnryan before we boarded our ferry to Ireland. Above and beyond service!!! Quiet and safe with beautiful scenery and off the path location. Thank you so much and we were very pleased with our stay! The O’Neil’s from Boca Raton , Florida USA. ##### Charla O. Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mary M.
