A gorgeous detached home standing proudly within the scenic Hoddom Castle Caravan Park, this attractive two-bed dwelling offers a wonderful base for a Scottish holiday. This part of the country is a haven for outdoor enthusiasts, with the River Annan winding through it and easy access to walking trails such as the Annandale Way (1 mile).

The inside of this elegant traditional property has been modernised to a high standard, with quality flooring throughout and light-coloured walls. It's still got its original sash windows which are painted elegantly white. Natural materials throughout create a rustic atmosphere, while colour splashes have an uplifting effect.

On the ground floor, you'll have a spacious kitchen featuring classic cream units with wooden work surfaces, for that coveted rustic style. The electric range oven and gas hob are sure to inspire your inner chef, then you can sit down for meals together in the dining room, which has dual-aspect sash windows and an elegant wooden fireplace housing a wood burner. Relax with a book in the conservatory porch, and enjoy some TV in the lounge, a welcoming space with lovely garden views. A shower room with a WC, along with a handy utility area, complete the lower floor.

Head upstairs to find two beautifully presented double bedrooms, both featuring zip-and-link king-size beds that can be adapted to twin singles according to your needs.

Outside, you'll have an enclosed garden leading to a large walled garden adjoining the property. It's great for your pets to run around in, and for leisurely days spent in the sunshine.

Beautiful, quiet location. We all had the best nights sleep in very comfortable beds. House is beautiful and has everything you need apart from the WiFi being very poor. If you have small children who rely on the internet I would advise to take games with them. Unfortunately we did not have the best of weather on our visit but made the most of Read moreit. The walled garden next to the property was a hit with our dog as nobody used it while we were there. We did a few walks around the caravan park which was lovely but tended to go days further afield. It was ideal location for Gretna, Carlisle etc so enjoyed visiting new places. I would go back if the WiFi was upgraded as a bit of a pain planning a journey and having to drive out onto the main road to get a connection to bring up the maps. If you want peace and tranquility then it is a perfect location. Lots of grouse and rabbits visiting daily which amused our dog. Hide

Had a week at Hoddom Gardens in June 2026. Very lucky with the weather. You don't holiday in Scotland for the weather but it was a big bonus. The house is larger than expected, it would be good for four without feeling cramped. It is well equipped and Everything you'll need is there. Rooms are large, plenty of space around plus the bonus of the Read morewalled garden just through the back garden gate. This makes it ideal for a family with a dog. Lot's of wildlife around the house including rabbits, deer, Red Kites and Herons. The caravan park is a short walk away but doesn't encroach on privacy and noise is not a problem. Lots of walks around the area including the castle and surrounding area, . and within a short drive to either Lockerbie or Annan for shopping. At the restaurant, the pizzas are fresh baked and delicious.. My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and wouldn't hesitate to book again. Hide

Beautiful property in a great location. Quiet and private, yet close enough to the pub/restaurant and shop. Great for dogs - garden is fully enclosed, and there's plenty of great walks nearby. Cottage is big and spacious, lots of nice places to sit.

The cottage was perfect. Spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable with everything we needed for our weeks stay. Very quiet location on the Hoddom Caravan Park Estate, away from the caravans and camping. Only issues were tv reception hit and miss and bad Wi-Fi connection, this could be due to location of property.

We loved staying in Hoddom Gardens and would happily stay again. The house is very large and comfortable with everything you'd need, and the location was ideal for us: quiet, but there's the caravan park nearby if you want the facilities.

Hoddom Gardens was a fantastic base for exploring Dumfries and Galloway. The cottage was set in a quiet spot but within easy reach of local amenities. It was lovely and clean with what felt like a fairly recent refurbishment. It was well appointed and had everything we needed, we would definitely recommend and likely book again in the future.

A lovely home that is quiet large for only a 2 bedroom home. Enclosed well looked after garden, with access to other parts of the estate. Our dog was so confused that we were in different rooms further apart than he was used to. Lovely and quite, also great for listening to the owls and watching the bats flying around
