 The Garden 

Stone steps lead you up to Glenview’s sunny, private garden, where you’ll enjoy panoramic views of the Solway Firth and the estuary—a picture-perfect spot to unwind as boats drift lazily by. Please note: due to the elevated garden and steps, access may be challenging for young children or guests with limited mobility.

For a more accessible option, there’s a smaller, flat garden area just outside the back door—ideal for a morning cuppa or a quick stretch in the fresh sea air.

We recommend supervising little ones around the garden and the front drive for peace of mind during your stay.

Whether you’re curled up inside or soaking in the scenery outdoors, Glenview Cottage offers the ultimate peaceful Scottish retreat—with comfort, character, and coastal charm in every corner.
