Self-catering that feels like home is how we like to think about Southfield. We're open again following the Coronavirus shut down and We're Good To Go! We want to offer guests the best possible environment in which to enjoy their holiday. Please see our Coronavirus commitment at the bottom of this page.
This spacious, three-bedroom Georgian townhouse is in the heart of Wigtown, Scotland’s Book Town. Nearby there are sheltered sandy beaches, great days out for the kids, cycling, beautiful gardens and nurseries, excellent fishing, golfing and in the Galloway Forest Park, the UK’s first Dark Sky Park.
This is a fantastic house for families especially those travelling with an older generation. Downstairs there is a double en suite bedroom, modern large kitchen plus a comfortable sitting room with large screen tv. Upstairs a large double bedroom, a room with three singles for children and friends and a family bathroom, plus a second spacious and comfortable sitting room with large screen tv.
Wigtown’s location gives you easy access to the Galloway Hills, a variety of beaches, fantastic gardens, golf courses, mountain biking – one of the Seven Stanes courses is located nearby at Kirroughtree outside Newton Stewart. There are walks from the front door including one to the nearby bird hide overlooking the Wigtown Bay Nature Reserve and bookshops galore. Across the street is The Bookshop, recently the focus of Shaun Bythell's critically acclaimed The Diary of a Bookseller &Confessions of a Bookseller. Famous for immortalising rude customers on his Facebook page, Shaun is really a nice guy - just don't ask for a discount!
Relax in our large walled garden with different areas for the whole family. Read quietly in the sheltered courtyard as the swallows dart overhead; picnic at our purpose built table and benches; let the children escape safely to set up camp in the treehouse towards the end of the garden.
