3 bedroom detached house for sale

* CLOSING DATE WEDNESDAY 26TH APRIL AT 12.00 Noon*  Barcaple High Lodge is a delightful, charming Galloway Cottage located on the outskirts of Ringford. Although in need of some modernisation this charming property benefits from an elevated position offering fine views across surrounding farmland.

Ringford itself is a small rural village which lies approximately six miles from the town of Castle Douglas.

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 Artist’s town of Kirkcudbright is also a short drive away, with excellent shops, restaurants, golf course and hosts various arts and crafts festivities throughout the year.
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.
