2 Bedroom Cottage in Moffat, Beattock

Location
The Bothy is just 4 minutes drive from the A74(M), the motorway linking the M6 to Glasgow, Edinburgh and beyond. However, that short journey takes you back 175 years to Sir William Younger’s gamekeeper’s cottage and bothy. The bothy is set in sycamore woodland, home to pheasants, rabbits, deer, squirrels and numerous more species of birds. The winding drive to The Bothy passes a seasonal stream with 2 small bridges, rhododendrons and fruit trees.
The Bothy
The Bothy is located on a courtyard with the original gamekeeper’s cottage opposite and the former gundog kennels to the left. There is plenty of parking for guests’ vehicles - The Bothy is often host to classic cars on trailers, on their way to the Moffat Rally.
The Bothy can be accessed by either steps or a ramp. There are culinary herbs for guests to pick planted within the bend of the ramp. The porch contains a sofa to make it easier to get hiking boots on and off, and coat hooks above a radiator, because allegedly, it sometimes rains and snows in Scotland! The water to make all that delicious whisky and salmon has to come from somewhere. There are windows on 3 sides of the porch, making it a relaxing spot to read, sip a glass of wine and unwind.
Off the hallway is the woodland bedroom, the bathroom and the living area. The bathroom has a large, step-free, electric shower.
