Carsebuie is an enchanting country cottage, in an area of outstanding natural beauty, that quickly has you hooked. The views take in the surrounding farmland and distant hills beyond. The birdsong is a delight, as are the red squirrels that frequent the rambling garden divided by rustic fences and moss covered stone walls. There is colour nearly all year round, and plenty to do for all ages.

Pop into the village shop for newspapers and some provisions, or take a brisk stroll up the gentle hills surrounding the cottage. You are far enough away to have total seclusion yet near enough to a town.

Sandy beaches can be found from less than 30 minutes drive at Sandhead, Garlieston, Luce Bay and Port William.

Mountain biking in the area includes Kirroughtree, and the famous 7Stanes over 400km of trails, spread across 7 trail centres from Glentress to Glentrool, aimed at all levels of mountain bikers from families to experts'.
