Bike store. Private parking for 3 cars. No smoking.. Butterhole Farmhouse is in a truly delightful setting with fabulous views. Renovated in 2019 and with the owners living adjacent, Butterhole Farmhouse is spacious and most of the rooms take advantage of beautiful views. Enjoy a meal with family or friends in the dining room which also boasts a large wood burner, perfect for those cosy winter nights.

Upstairs, the bedrooms are spacious with a family bathroom and en-suite. Particularly pleasant is one of the kingsize rooms which has double-aspect windows with picturesque views to wake up to in the morning.

Set in the heart of Mabie Forest, Butterhole Farmhouse is the ideal location to enjoy a variety of activities all within walking distance, including many walking trails and some of the world class 7stanes mountain biking trails. There is even a butterfly reserve! There is so much open space for the kids to run around and enjoy the adventure playground.

A must for the kids is a visit to Mabie Farm Park which is nestled just below Mabie Forest, where you can feed the animals and see the belted galloways, alpacas, llamas and much more. It will certainly keep you entertained all day.

Further afield, this beautiful area of South West Scotland has so much more to offer from the quiet sandy coves and cliff-top walks, to the many castles, including Caerlaverock and Drumlanrig. Warmed by the Gulf Stream the area has many beautiful gardens to visit, including Threave Gardens (National Trust) and Logan Botanic Gardens, Scotland’s most exotic garden. A stay here would not be complete without taking a drive along the coast and a wander round the little seaside villages of Southerness, Rockcliffe and Kippford.

After a day packed with adventure take a leisurely stroll from Butterhole Farmhouse to Mabie House Hotel and enjoy a well earned drink! Butterhole Farmhouse can be booked with Butterhole Cottage (UK10736) and Brae Cottage (UK5909) to accommodate up to 16 guests. Beach 9½ miles, shop 3 miles, pub and restaurant 500 yards.
