Probably our most popular cottage, Fox Cottage suits singles, couples or families and is situated in our Stables Courtyard beside the games room, children's play area and laundry.
Fox Cottage is topsy turvy in that the kitchen/living area is upstairs and the bedrooms are downstairs which means you get great views from your sofa/kitchen. Upstairs is a huge open-plan living area with a dining table in the middle and the kitchen at the far end of the room. There is an electric fire in the living area. Downstairs you’ll find two comfortable bedrooms, one with twin beds and the other a double. The twin bedroom also has an ensuite WC and basin. The family bathroom is next to the double bedroom and has a bath with shower over, WC and basin. Fox Cottage sleeps up to 4.
Fox Cottage has a fully equipped kitchen with electric cooker, microwave, fridge freezer, kitchenware and dishwasher. The heating and hot water is by our bio mass boiler and is included in the cost of the cottage. It is a comfortable and welcoming accommodation. Free Wi Fi is available for all guests. . Bedrooms are fully made up with linen, and towels available on request. A shared laundry room is equipped with washing machine, tumble dryer, chest freezer and secure storage space, and a large games room is open to all guests for a game of table tennis, darts or snooker.
Enjoy a 'farm life experience' and visit the local animals, wander amongst the rolling hills and enjoy salmon and trout fishing on the loch or river. Many guests don't even leave Kirkwood as there is so much to do on the estate; whether you are interested in country sports or quad biking, wildlife watching or spa treatments. Situated 5 miles from Lockerbie and the thriving market town of Annan, there is plenty of local history, shops, pubs and restaurants to discover. Dumfries is also only 10 miles away where there is a wealth of attractions to explore, including a number of properties connected to Robert Burns, where you can learn more of the bard's extensive links with the region. Ideal for wedding parties as we are so close to Gretna, Springkell and Kinmount and can sleep up to 32 people in all the cottages.
