Description

The Old Smiddy is situated within beautiful rural setting, yet only a short drive from the popular town of Kirkcudbright. The name 'The Old Smiddy' comes from the original stone built smiddy located on the site, where only one wall still exists on the eastern side of the property.

The property is approached by its own gated driveway, which is neatly bound by dry stone dykes, where there is ample parking for several vehicles. The generous garden grounds offer a mix of net lawns, flowering borders, mature shrubs and in addition, a paved patio offers the perfect place for alfresco dining or family and social entertaining. Given the location of The Old Smiddy a plethora of native wildlife can be enjoyed on a daily basis along with countryside pursuits available straight from the doorstep.

The Old Smiddy is only a short drive from the pretty town of Kirkcudbright which is one of Scotland's most vibrant communities with events, exhibitions and activities taking place throughout the year. A lively fishing port, Kirkcudbright makes an ideal location for a weekend break or as a base to explore the beautiful south west of Scotland.

Surrounded by coasts and hills of outstanding natural beauty; ideal for cycling, gentle walking, challenging hiking or a lazy day at the beach. Events take place throughout the year with the spectacle of the tattoo and the traditional Riding of the Marches. There are Art and Crafts Trail with over 100 venues, a Country Fair and a Food Festival.
