Glen Struan is a surprisingly spacious 3 bedroom semi-detached cottage, located on the edge of the Machars village of Elrig. This charming property is well positioned in a generous wraparound garden and enjoys fine views across the front garden and neighbouring farmland to the sea. Located a short distance away from the coastal village of Port William and within easy reach of both Wigtown and Newton Stewart.
Newton Stewart is a busy Galloway market town set on the banks of the River Cree in a genuinely rural area and regarded by many as the gateway to the Galloway hills. There is a museum, leisure centre, post office, banks, cinema and a wide range of shops, offices, businesses, hotels and restaurants.
There are many beautiful sandy beaches and rocky coves within easy reach, and equally dramatic inland scenery, with magnificent hills, glens and lochs. The area has a wide range of sport and outdoor activities with opportunities to take in shooting, fishing on river, loch or sea, golf, sailing, and an extensive range of walks and cycling routes. Galloway Forest Park is particularly convenient and Kirroughtree Visitor Centre with biking and walking trails is only a short drive away, with a café and play park on site for refreshments.
