3 bedroom accommodation in Glencaple, Dumfries

An original 18th-century fisherman’s cottage with magnificent views over the Solway Estuary with wood-burning stove and wheelchair access.. Peacefully set with panoramic views over countryside to the Nith Estuary, these detached, single-storey holiday cottages have their own garden and have been furnished and equipped to the STB’s ‘4 Star’ standard. Conheath Gatelodge is a traditional delightful and cosy Georgian cottage with many original features, whilst Martha’s Shore Cottage has magnificent views over the Solway Estuary from one side and was an original fisherman’s cottage dating back to 1700.

There are lovely riverside walks from the door with abundant birds and wildlife to spot.

This was our second holiday at Martha's Shore Cottage.
This was our second holiday at Martha's Shore Cottage. We chose it partly because we knew that it was entirely suitable for my wife, who is a wheelchair user, and our dog, who we could let wander around the garden without worrying that she would get through the fence, and partly because of the wonderful views from the cottage.

Great cottage in a fantastic location on the banks of the river Nith.
Great cottage in a fantastic location on the banks of the river Nith. Lovely views and plenty of bird life on the river. Even saw the otters. Cottage is large and comfortable. The dog loved the garden - which is very secure. I would return.

A return visit for us having stayed last year.
A return visit for us having stayed last year. A LOVELY cottage which ticks all the boxes for us and that includes our dog who loves it. A secure garden is a must for any cottage we stay in and this one is very secure. Looking out of the French door over the river and hills opposite is a delight with numerous birds, the evening exodus of gulls returning to the open sea grabs our attention every night. Lucky this year with the weather resulting in stunning sunsets. Looking forward to returning again.

Excellent (and unusual) to find a cottage with proper accommodation for those with limited mobility.
Excellent (and unusual) to find a cottage with proper accommodation for those with limited mobility. The owner obviously understands what this really means. Thanks, especially for supportive chairs with arms as well as a comfortable sofa. The cottage is suitable and attractive to younger, more active members of the family but does not exclude the older members. Also, good to have an ever-changing bird sanctuary outside the kitchen window!

We absolutely adored this cottage.
We absolutely adored this cottage. It’s size was ideal and with extra wide doorways that made it very easy to get around with a wheelchair. It is beautifully kept and well equipped for all our needs. It’s location is second to none, being able to watch river life come and go is wonderfully relaxing. I’ll be very happy to recommend this cottage, and I’d be quite happy to go back sometime soon 10/10
