The Old Post Office (cottage)
Home descriptionOnce the village shop and post office, and now offering very stylish accommodation with a light and fresh seaside theme, The Old Post Office directly overlooks and is a few steps from a delightful sandy beach. Located in the lovely coastal village of Powfoot, with its charming mix of late Victorian red brick houses and fisherman's cottages, however you prefer to relax, there is something here for you! There is a fantastic privately-hired spa in the village with outdoor hot tub, steam sauna and pool with a current - various pampering packages are available. There is a local shop along with an excellent pub/restaurant providing good food. The village also benefits from a challenging 18 hole links golf course. Walking, cycling (Sustrans Cycleway and the world class 7 Stanes mountainbiking trails are nearby,) fishing and bird watching are also popular pursuits (the area benefits from overwintering birds such as the Barnacle Geese who fly thousands of miles every year to spend their winter on the Solway Firth.) The cottage is also very popular with honeymooners due to its central location to various local wedding venues including Gretna, Comlongon Castle and Caerlaverock Castle (4 poster bed provided.)
