As part of your stay in these coastal holiday cottages in Dumfries and Galloway with private seashore, you’ll enjoy direct access to a rugged, unspoiled shoreline unlike any other. Wander down a gentle path through Orroland’s woodland gardens, or drive partway via our private driveway, to find yourself on a rocky beach perfect for tide-pooling, beachcombing, or simply lounging beside the water. The shore reveals fresh discoveries every day—tiny crabs scuttling among seaweed, miniature starfish lodged in crevices, and colourful sea anemones in sheltered puddles.

The private seashore is perfect for family days out, where children can build forts from flotsam or hunt for mussel shells while parents relax with a picnic on the rocks. It’s also an ideal spot for quiet reflection—watch the early morning light touch the horizon or listen to waves whisper as dusk falls. This blend of activity and calm makes your experience of the coast in these coastal holiday cottages in Dumfries and Galloway with private seashore truly unique.

Adjacent to the shore itself, you’ll find the restored Victorian Palm and Fern Garden nestled right next to the water’s edge. Lush and sheltered, it feels almost tropical despite its northerly latitude. Here you can wander among richly green fronds, sheltered from wind and open to warmth—an unexpected oasis that complements the maritime landscape.
Each cottage is just a short walk from this shoreline, passing through Orroland’s private, peacefully maintained grounds. Whether you stroll at dawn’s first light or under a moonlit sky, the coastal edge is yours to discover
