Cottage with stunning views over Kirkcudbright Bay, a short walk from the beach.

Lower Nunton is set in a rural location and has a large private garden ideal for families and dog lovers alike. All the rooms of this single story cottage face out across the bay and the 360 degree views from the garden are just as spectacular. Wooden garden furniture is supplied in season and there is a portable BBQ kept in the house. The living room has a Freeview TV, DVD player and CD/radio as well as a selection of books and games. There is a wood burning stove making it lovely and cosy on a long winter evening. The kitchen/diner is well equipped with everything needed for a home from home, seating for six or more and underfloor heating.There is one double bedroom, one twin room and a shower room at one end of the cottage and a twin bunk room and bathroom at the other end. The shower room has a low level tray and wide outward opening door for easy access while the bathroom has a mixer tap with shower attachment.
The cottage is heated by a mixture of underfloor heating and electric heaters with individual timers and thermostats so you can have each room just right. All electricity is included in the price as are bed linen, towels, tea towels, cloths, cleaning materials and a complementary basket of logs. We now have fibre broadband and mobile phone reception is good on all networks.
Dogs are welcome as are responsible owners. There is an extra charge of £15 per pet. If you intend to bring pets, please contact the owner before booking as this will need to be added to the quote.
There is no dedicated EV charging port, only an outside 3 pin socket. There are rapid charging devices in Kirkcudbright Harbour car park and at the Cocoa Bean Company both within 4 miles. EV charging is not included in the rental. Please contact the owner if you intend to bring an electric car.

We really loved this cottage. It’s far enough away to be really quiet and peaceful but at the same time really accessible to all the local attractions. Great place to stay. Super warm and cosy.

Very nice cottage in a beautiful area. Amazing views from the cottage…it was nice weather so the views were breath taking. Nice cottage inside and out. Huge lovely garden. Nice, comfortable furniture and beds, lovely shower, fully equipped kitchen. Did I mention the views? Things to improve? No WiFi. This is marked on the listing. Didn’t bother us because our phone networks worked well. I really enjoyed the Pride & Prejudice DVD, there was a big selection of DVDs. The curtains were very thin and did nothing to block the wonderful sunrise. Fortunately we always travel with window black-outs. I will return for sure to this property.

Fab cottage set way back from the road so total and utter peace and quiet, it is just perfect although could maybe do with some updating inside, having said that, I would most definitely book again😁

It’s a beautiful cottage in a perfect location. Very peaceful and a lovely view from every window. The cottage has absolutely everything you could need and the garden is great if you have a dog as it’s totally enclosed. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend to others.

We had the most relaxing and peaceful week at this delightful cottage. The views were something else and being so close to a lovely beach was a real bonus. Our dog loved the garden as did the kids and none of us wanted to leave. It had everything we needed and much more. The local town was charming and had lots to explore. Highly recommend this place.

If you have children who love the beach, a dog or two or just love peace and quiet with views to die for, look no further. Second time here, everything you need and location is just perfect for beach walks .Easy 15 minute car distance to Kircudbright with great cafes , pubs and restaurants and lovely independent shops . Highly recommended.

The cottage was just as described, very comfortable and in a rural location. Enjoyed watch the Red Kites from the cottage and lots of nice walks nearby. Kirkcudbright is an excellent centre with all essential shops, cafes and restaurants. There was no need to contact the property manager at any point.

Cracking stay but need dishwasher. I dont hand wash at home so reluctant to do so on holiday. Also some confusion in listing as regards to whether there was WiFi or not.
