Clearwell Cottage, New Galloway

Delightful one and a half storey traditional detached Galloway cottage tucked away in a rural setting yet within easy walking distance of all local amenities.

Clearwell Cottage is a traditional 1 ½ storey detached Galloway cottage located in a rural setting on the edge of New Galloway with fine views across the garden and neighbouring farmland. This surprisingly spacious home provides bright and airy flexible accommodation whilst being within easy walking distance of all local amenities.
New Galloway has its own primary school, doctor’s surgery and active community attractions including the CatStrand, local shop, local pubs and local post office. The village is also well served by public transport links, north to Dalry and beyond and south to Castle Douglas (some 14 miles away) and beyond. Dalry has a secondary school which is complemented by Castle Douglas High School after fourth year.
Castle Douglas is a thriving Galloway market town, lying approximately 18 miles south-west of Dumfries and enjoying an enviable range of shops and other facilities in a town now promoted as a “Food Town”. The town also has a wide range of facilities including excellent primary and secondary schools, modern Health Centre, supermarkets and a thriving community run theatre, The Fullarton, nearby.
The Dumfries and Galloway Region is renowned for its beautiful countryside with rolling pastures broken by stone dykes and amenity woodland with a rugged coastline. Benefiting from the Gulf Stream, the general climate is mild and there are consequently many beautiful gardens nearby including the National Trust Gardens at Threave.
