Gatehouse Studio Apartment

About this property

Gatehouse Studio Apartment is a welcoming, ground-floor studio apartment with quirky decor and a characterful feel, settled into the town of Gatehouse Of Fleet, Dumfries and Galloway. The property is located close to local amenities and offers hand off-road parking for guests, as well as accommodation suitable for your four-legged companion. Be welcomed into a cellar apartment with contemporary furniture throughout, contrasting delightfully with the curved ceiling and the exposed original brickwork. Here you will find an amply-fitted kitchen with a selection of amenities to cook up a storm. Enjoy your meal round the dining table with a glass of your favourite beverage, before settling into the tasteful sitting area with a good book.

Freshen up in the shower room, before cosying up for the night in either the double or single bed. Days begin on the footpaths beside the River Fleet, where you can follow leafy stretches and pause for a photo on the bridge, or venture into Galloway Forest Park for trails that range from gentle woodland loops to hill country viewpoints beneath star-bright skies. For culture, Kirkcudbright rewards with galleries, working studios, and a colourful harbour; for the outdoors, Newton Stewart places you on the edge of the Galloway Hills for hiking and cycling; and for flavours, Castle Douglas, Scotland’s Food Town, brims with delis, butchers, and tempting bakeries.

Roll back to base as evening falls, slide into the parking space, and settle in for a simple supper, warmed by the glow of the fire. Designed for couples and small groups, Gatehouse Studio Apartment brings you close to the best of Dumfries and Galloway from a practical town setting. End your break with a final wander through Gatehouse of Fleet before saying farewell to 69 High Street. Note: This property can be booked with ref. 1169502, together sleeping up to 7 people.

Peaceful in its pastel colours, the small country town of Gatehouse of Fleet lies on the Solway Firth, in the midst of Dumfries & Galloway countryside, with good sandy beaches a five-minute drive away. The town was founded in the 1760s as a mill community, and today the nearby Mill on the Fleet - a visitor centre in a former bobbin mill - tells the tale of Gatehouse’s cotton-spinning days. Today, there are several shops in the town including a small supermarket, chemist, bank and Post Office, along with two book/gift shops, a kilt-making centre and two cafes. All four pubs in the town have restaurant facilities and welcome children. Castle Douglas, a 15-minute drive away, offers an extensive range of shops, Threave Gardens and boating on Carlingwark Loch.
