Property information

Located in the heart of Corsewall Estate, seven miles from Stranraer, Stables Cottage is a 4* two-bedroom cottage, with a log-burning stove, which is ideal for both romantic breaks or family holidays. Two dogs are very welcome and charges apply - please inform the owners when booking. Please note we don't accept bookings on behalf of contractors. Stables Cottage, located on the first floor, has a spacious, modern open plan sitting room with kitchen and dining area with a traditional log-burning stove as a focus for relaxing and comfy sofas and arm chairs. The cottage has a double bedroom with a traditional style cast iron king size bed over looking the old walled garden. There is a twin bedroom with ivory traditional style cast iron beds. The bathroom has a bath with an overhead chrome shower. The cottage is equipped with a Delonghi bean to cup coffee machine, smart television, DVD player, a Roberts Bluetooth digital radio, Wi-Fi, a selection of board games and books. It also has a dishwasher, washing machine, fridge, freezer, hob and electric oven. This is one of two ‘green’ cottages on the Estate with the central heating provided by a wood chip biomass boiler and electricity provided by one of the Estate’s wind turbines. Outside there's a games room, tennis court, zip wire, children's climbing frame, wendy house and large trampoline. There's an extensive network of wonderful woodland walks and coastal paths for guests to enjoy and the nearest beach is a 10 minute walk from the front door and there's a pub a short walk away in the village which serves excellent fish and chips. We have a second cottage, Garden Cottage, about 50 metres from Stables Cottage, which sleeps 6 - so groups of up to 10 can easily be accommodated in both locations.
