Enjoy the stunning views from the house to Hestan Island and over the Solway Firth, Scotland's most southerly firth.The house sits in a superb position on the hillside above the popular seaside village of Rockcliffe giving outstanding views over the estuary to Rough Island Nature Reserve, which can be walked to over a causeway at low tide. The house has a private setting with an attractive garden laid out over the hillside with rough rock garden paths among the varied plants and shrubs.
Lonsdale is furnished and equipped to a high standard to ensure a completely enjoyable stay. The spacious rooms have superb views of the estuary and the dining room has patio doors to a sun trap patio - whilst you may find you just want to sit and enjoy the seascape you should still make the effort to explore the wonderful local area!
