Arthur's Cottage is a newly renovated, charming, very comfortable cottage that is light and spacious. It is a 5 minute walk from Powillimount Beach and set on the Arbigland Estate which is in an area of outstanding natural beauty. It is semidetached (Powillimount Cottage is the other side). The cottages can be taken together ( booking as Beachcomber) enabling family gatherings of up to 12 people to stay together. It is in an ideal situation with stunning views all around - the Solway Firth with the mountains of the Lake District to the front and mountainous views to the back. There are three very comfortable en suite bedrooms (two with kingsize beds and one with twin beds so sleeps 6). There is a large open plan living area with a well equipped kitchen, 2 large comfortable sofas and an electric fire (looks like a real one, but none of the hassle) and a dining table and chairs. Double aspect windows to the front and back with window seats. There is a small conservatory which gets all the afternoon and evening sun and a separate utility room with a washing machine etc. The garden is large and enclosed with lovely views, the perfect spot for a BBQ and a sundowner. This area is a well kept secret, there is so much to see and do. There are lovely walks all around, brilliant bird life (between WWT Caerlaverock and RSPB Mersehead), glorious gardens (Threave, Garden of Cosmic Speculation, Arbigland), marvellous mountain biking (near 3 of the 7 Staines), great golf courses (Southerness Championship course is 3 miles away), interesting towns to visit (Castle Douglas and Kircudbright) and charming, unspoilt seaside villages all along the coast (Rockcliffe, Sandyhills, Kippford). There is a great pub in Carsethorn - The Steamboat Inn which is a 10 minute drive away of an hours wander along the beach. There really is something for everyone, or you can just stay put at the cottage and enjoy the cry of the Curlews and chatter of the Oyster Catchers while you take a well earned rest. "Beautifully done", "ideal", "loved it", "we'll be back" - some of the comments from our guests since we opened Arthur's Cottage this summer (2021). We have just finished renovating Arthur's Cottage making it into a very comfortable, light and spacious, 3 bedroom cottage each with it's own ensuite bathroom (two bedrooms with kingsize beds and one with twin beds so sleeps 6 in total). Please note that there are steep stairs up to the upstairs bedroom. There is a large open plan living area with a well equipped kitchen, 2 large comfortable sofas and an electric fire (looks like a real one, but non of the hassle) and a dining table and chairs. Double aspect windows to the front and back with window seats. There is a small conservatory which gets all the afternoon and evening sun and a separate utility room with a washing machine etc. The garden is large and enclosed with lovely views, the perfect spot for a BBQ and a sundowner.
We stayed here for a few days over New Year and really enjoyed our time in the cottage and the location. The cottage is just a 5 minute walk from a lovely beach. We have fed back privately to the owner about basic essentials that weren’t provided, hence the 3 star rating (this was mainly regarding lack of Wi-Fi, kitchen supplies and the quality of the twin beds). If these things are improved I would give this Airbnb a 4 or 5 star rating.
Arthur's Cottage is set on the Arbigland Estate which is an area of outstanding natural beauty and a place of SSI (Special Scientific Interest) because of it's amazing coast line. Please come to enjoy the unspoilt rural setting, the beautiful walks, fantastic birdlife and lovely beaches and the peace and quiet. It is the ideal place for a total break away from it all (though we do have WIFI!).
You really need your own car though we have had guests who come by bus but the public transport is limited and the nearest bus stop is in Kirkbean (about 2.5 miles away).
