Description from owner

Description

Craig Roan is a spacious bright two bedroomed apartment in the pretty seaside village of Rockcliffe in Dumfries and Galloway. This three star Scottish Tourist Board rated self catering accommodation is attached to our home which is also run as a B&B. Situated at the rear of our property giving guests complete privacy and their own small garden. A short walk takes you to the beach and bay.

Rockcliffe is an ideal holiday destination for guests wanting to get away from it all. Excellent cliff and forest walks from our doorstep, quiet roads to tour the area and to see all Dumfries and Galloway has to offer. From Castles to National Trust Properties and Gardens, pretty beaches and unspoilt countryside. The RSPB reserve at Merse Head is a short drive away and the Red Kite Feeding Staion and Threave Ospreys close by. Dalbeattie 7 stanes Mountain Biking Trail is also close by. We offer a bike lock up and drying room.

Rockcliffe and the surrounding area have a mild climate due to the influence of the Gulf Stream. The area became known as the Scottish Riviera in Victorian times and has been a well kept secret holiday destination since then. The land between Rockcliffe and Kippford is owned and managed by the National Trust for Scotland so there are some lovely walks between the two villages. Kippford is a busy yachting village well known for its sailing regatta and here are two pubs serving local Ales and a lovely gift shop.

We offer short breaks all year round with a flexible start date. Three nights minimum.

The accommodation is accessed through the conservatory/lounge with flat screen Freeview Digital TV and DVD player. French doors lead through to the open plan kitchen diner with large pine table and dresser. The compact kitchen is adequate for holiday meal preparation and comprises an electric oven with halogen hob, microwave and small dishwasher. Fridge with ice compartment. No freezer. No washing machine or dryer.

The two bedrooms lead off the dining area. The double room is a bright sunny room with large pine bed and wardrobe. Twin bedroom has built in wardrobes.

“Wonderfully quaint”

Reviewed 8 Aug 2017

Stayed here for a long weekend perfect location for us, nice area, beautiful walk to kippford. Accommodation was excellent, very clean and spacious - wifi an added bonus for the kids!! Kitchen small but adequate to make full English breakfast each morning, large dining table so family could all sit together. Conservatory was bright and almost like sitting in back garden. Had a thunderstorm whilst there which knocked power out and the heating. Although it didn't affect us the owners cane around with a complimentary bottle of wine-not necessary but a lovely touch to know they cared about your stay! Will definitely be visiting again soon.
