Auld Laundry Cottage is delightfully situated in the stunning policies of Raehills Estate,
home of the Galloway Country Fair. The building has been converted to a very high specification to
provide superb self catering holiday accommodation.
Considerable care
has been taken in the creation of Auld Laundry Cottage using the latest ecological techniques
and natural materials to produce a house with a low impact on the
environment and on its occupants. Enjoying seclusion and idyllically
located, guests are free to walk round the estate and visit the
walled garden.
Raehills is located between
Dumfries and Lockerbie and Auld Laundry Cottage is also an ideal base from which to experience some of the world's best mountain biking at nearby Ae Forest 7stanes, which links directly to Raehills Estate by a bike track and many of the other 7stanes trails. The motorway is within a ten minute
drive and nearby Lockerbie has a main line railway station with direct
services both to Edinburgh and the South.
There is also wonderful moorland
and hill country for walking, a number of historic houses such as
Drumlanrig Castle are within a short drive and, for the sportsman, the
area is unrivalled. Fishing and stalking on the estate can be arranged and there is
also a tennis court for guests' use, subject to arrangement with
the owners.
