The perfect place to escape for a few nights away with friends (minumum 3 nights) or longer holidays with the family.

Stroan provides dog-friendly, luxury holiday accommodation across two floors in a traditional Galloway stone cottage. Renovated to the highest standards it has maintained its character but has a modern, contemporary feel.

Access to the cottage is via the entrance hall. The twin bedroom with an en-suite walk-in shower room is on the ground floor. It has zip and link beds that can be made into a King-size bed on request (please let us know your preference when you book). Stairs from the entrance hall lead to the first floor.

Upstairs is a spacious open-plan living/dining/sitting room area. It’s fully equipped with everything you’ll need to enjoy your holiday home from home. In the colder months you can curl up on the sofa and warm your toes in front of the wood-burning stove. Maybe you’ll discuss your day of adventures and plan what to do tomorrow. This space leads onto another twin bedroom with zip and link beds, again this can be made into a king-size bed on request. Up a short flight of stairs is a beautiful bathroom complete with a walk-in shower and a luxurious roll top bath. So if you’ve been out on your bike or walking the hills, you can enjoy a relaxing soak before you head off to bed. Soft, fluffy towels and fresh, quality bed linen is provided – we’ve got all the home comforts you’ll need.

Whilst Stroan doesn’t have its own garden, there is a play park and field just across the road. Perfect to take your dog(s) for a run around during your time here.

Better than glamping!

We needed to be in New Galloway to attend several courses in the area & the new festival at Kirkcudbright.
Cleanliness - sinks & toilets sparkling clean, carpets freshly vacuumed; but kitchen floor still had crumbs (we swept them up); downstairs en-suite extractor fan very fluffy. Would be useful to have something like a leak-proof bucket with a handle, to take the recycling round to the back courtyard - but there might have been one in the cleaning cupboard off the kitchen; we took our glass home to our own domestic recycling bin.
Customer care - 2 issues (re kitchen items not working) were resolved very promptly by reporting them at the community shop; emails were returned days later as "timed out". The voucher for the Community Shop was a nice touch, we spent it on local cheeses.
Comfort - we slept very well. Heating was responsive to the thermostat, which we turned right down during the day. Didn't use the log burner.
Condition - excellent; hard to believe that the building was converted about 10 years ago - good design, quality materials, high standard of workmanship & fitting; well maintained.
Location - suited us well for the nearby courses we were attending, and for the dog walk at the nearby football pitch. Disappointing that the CatStrand opened at 11 am - too late for us to get coffee & cake, as the courses started at 10 am.
Value for money - we're used to camping or glamping, so we don't have comparisons.

It was already my second stay at this nice flat. I really enjoyed it! Well equipped kitchen, Smart TV, central heating, quite modern interior. I really can recommend it!
