The property is located in the small village of Ecclefechan which has a range of amenities including two convenience stores, a primary school, a doctor's surgery and The Cressfield Hotel. Ecclefechan lies approximately 6.5 miles from Lockerbie where all major amenities are available including Lockerbie High School, shopping and a rail link providing transport to Glasgow, Edinburgh, Carlisle and the South. The M74 also provides transport links to the North and South.

The village is famous for being the birthplace of Thomas Carlyle. Ecclefechan lies in the valley of the Mein Water, a tributary of the River Annan, 61⁄4 miles (10 kilometres) south of Lockerbie, five miles (eight kilometres) north of Annan. Annan has a high school, a railway station, a cinema and supermarkets. Ecclefechan is eight miles (thirteen kilometres) northwest of the English border.  
In Common Brittonic, Ecclefechan meant “small church” but when Gaelic swept through the area, the belief arose that the name derived from the 7th Century character, St Féchín of Fore – hence the local shortening of the name to "the Fechan".
