Wee Newton - a house that sleeps 6 guests in 2 bedrooms
NEW TO OUR PORTFOLIO WITH AVAILABILITY FROM LATE SUMMER
Tucked away amidst open fields and rolling countryside, Wee Newton offers a tranquil escape just a stone's throw from the village of Twynholm and a short drive from the charming harbour town of Kirkcudbright.
This beautifully converted barn conversion has been thoughtfully renovated to create the perfect base for a memorable family getaway. Sleeping up to six guests, the home combines comfort, space, and rustic charm.
The bright and welcoming living room boasts a large picture window framing stunning views across the owner's working farm - keep an eye out for the friendly Highland cows grazing nearby. The well-equipped kitchen is designed with family living in mind and includes everything you'll need for a relaxing stay. It opens out into a cosy conservatory, the ideal spot to unwind with a book or a glass of wine after a day of exploring.
Perfectly situated to explore the stunning Solway Coast, the location offers easy access to a variety of beautiful beaches and dramatic clifftop walks. Within a short drive, you'll find the wide sandy shores of Dhoon Shore and Brighouse Bay - perfect for a family day out - or head to Carrick to explore its fascinating rock pools and striking coastal formations.
For those looking to explore inland, the enchanting Galloway Forest Park is close by. Known as one of the best places in the UK for stargazing thanks to its dark skies and low light pollution, it also offers scenic walking routes and thrilling mountain biking trails at Kirroughtree - part of the renowned 7stanes trail network. More biking adventures await at Dalbeattie, Mabie, and Ae Forests.
The charming harbour town of Kirkcudbright is just a short drive away and is bursting with culture and character. Enjoy year-round festivals, including the popular Jazz Festival, Scottish Nights, and the magical Festival of Light. Art lovers will appreciate the town's galleries and creative spirit, with highlights like the National Trust's Broughton House and Garden—once home to artist E.A. Hornel - and the newly opened contemporary art gallery celebrating the town's connections to the Glasgow Boys and Girls.
Kirkcudbright's historic architecture, bustling working harbour, and friendly cafés make it a delight to explore at your own pace - perfect for a relaxing afternoon with tea and cake.
When it comes to dining, nearby villages like Gatehouse of Fleet and Borgue offer welcoming pubs and hotels serving delicious meals - reservations are recommended during busier times. A little further afield, the market town of Castle Douglas features independent shops, a cinema-theatre, and an excellent range of eateries.
For a more active day out, the Galloway Activity Centre on Loch Ken offers a fantastic selection of land and water-based adventures, plus a cosy café where you can unwind while watching the boats drift across the loch.
Whether you're looking for seaside serenity, woodland adventure, or cultural charm, this is the perfect base to experience it all.
