Arakhova - a house that sleeps 10 guests in 4 bedrooms
Super holiday home for families and large groups, the house is in a quiet location but still conveniently situated close to the heart of the Artists' Town of Kirkcudbright. The house has a lovely terraced garden to the rear with large seating area including gas BBQ, which is ideal in the summer sunshine; while from the front of the house there is a small private patio with views out over the town to the hills and glimpses of the Dee Estuary, with it's busy harbour providing an ever changing scene of both working fishing boats and leisure craft. From the property you can stroll to art galleries, bistros, restaurants & bars, the harbour and the dramatic tidal changes of the River Dee provide an opportunity to see different wildlife and birds on pleasant waterside walks. Short drives will bring you to lovely sandy beaches, historic gardens, numerous golf courses, outdoor activity centres and a great array of walking trails too.

The property was in a good location which afforded good views and only a short walk from the town centre.
The kitchen had everything we could want and there was an excellent supple of DVDs and books as well as two sitting rooms, both with TVs..
We benefited from a bountiful supply of plums from the garden.
This is a very well appointed, modern cottage. In fact it isn't a cottage it's a family home with all the facilities that you would expect. Really well appointed, warm and comfortable. A great location for a dog owner with a walk in the woods 5 minutes away, and Kirkcudbright surrounded by beautiful coastlines and countryside. You could easily spend two weeks in this area and not see half of the things that you wanted to see. We loved Arakhova and would highly recommend it and the support that you get from Visit Scotland. I hope that you enjoy your stay here as much as we did.
