Cairndoon Steading is a lovely attached steading and gives the perfect excuse for a relaxing holiday in this secret little corner of Scotland which soon becomes addictive! Almost every window in the steading offers a living gallery capturing the Galloway Hills, the sea and open countryside. From a stunning coastline peppered with some lovely beaches away from the madding crowd to the patch work countryside criss crossed by dry stone walls. Galloway has been relatively untouched for many decades and this adds to the charm of the area. Cairndoon Steading has been beautifully restored from its lowly beginnings and is now a most charming home from home with every detail enhancing your stay from the oak lintels and original exterior stonework to open plan living space and luxurious and spacious bathrooms. It provides a superb base for cyclists and hikers and those wishing to explore the area, with many activities and seriously good food on offer here.

Lovely well equipped and comfortable cottage.
Lovely well equipped and comfortable cottage. Everything clean and comfortable and great that all rooms have ensuite bathrooms. Fantastic views over the stunning countryside and great sunsets. Nice quiet beach a short drive away. Good community cafe's in nearby Isle of Whithorn and Port William. Friendly and helpful hosts. Hope to make another visit soon.
