    Chill out in the hot tub 5 steps from the bedroom door. Or relax in the garden with a book. A private lower decked area closer to the burn will have you feeling closer to nature, and being the perfect place for a coffee while listening to the water trickle by while you watch the squirrels and birds. The property is immaculate with big windows to allow you to enjoy the views of nature whatever the weather. Cosy and comfortable with the bonus of friendly informative hosts. A few local shops, takeaways, pubs and petrol station within a 6 minute drive. One takeaway even delivers to your cottage if you need a complete break from driving. Gretna shopping outlet and the M6 are only 15 minutes away. Carlisle is about a 25 minutes drive. I'll be booking again for my birthday near the end of the year.

About the location

LONGTOWN

Gretna Green 7.7 miles; Carlisle 8.5 miles; Brampton 11 miles; Dumfries 27.5 miles

A delightful, well-stocked town in northern Cumbria that runs alongside the River Esk. Longtown is a fantastic base for a holiday as it comes in the centre of four Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, including Solway Coast AONB, the Northumberland National Park, North Pennines AONB and the Lake District National Park.The local area offers a pleasant range of shops, pubs and restaurants for you to choose from. There are some beautiful places nearby, offering even more places to go and things to do. Brampton and Carlisle are nearby with beautiful buildings. As Longtown is so close to Scotland, it would be rude not to visit Dumfries and Galloway. Edinburgh and Glasgow are just over an hours drive away.

Please note as the hot tub is emptied, cleaned and re filled between each booking it may not be at the optimum temperature for your arrival.
