secluded rural haven set in 18 acres of grounds with the river Bladnoch running
along the perimeter providing fantastic fishing opportunities. Nature and
wildlife are truly on your doorstep. But despite being “in the middle of
nowhere” Newton Stewart and all its amenities are located just 9 miles away.
Below is a non exhaustive list of who will enjoy Waterside and
the surrounding areas:
Hunters - Although we don't permit hunting on the grounds a
number of syndicates operate in the area within a short distance and often base
themselves from Waterside.
Anglers - The river Bladnoch which runs along the perimeter of
the property provides excellent fishing for both migratory and non-migratory
species. This is available onsite free of charge with the owners prior consent.
Astronomy/Astrophotography -The nearby Galloway Forest has since
2009 been designated a gold tier dark sky park due to its breath taking and
rare stargazing conditions. Those conditions are almost replicated at
Waterside with bortle 2 skies, this provides incredible dark skies for astronomy
and astrophotography enthusiasts.
Walkers/Mountain Bikers – Dumfries and Galloway is famed for its
mountain bike routes including the most spectacular rides of the 7 Stanes,
Glentrool is either 20 minutes by car or a little warm up bike ride, through
the forest and heath lands past Ochiltree loch. The Kirroughtree trails are
also within reach via a 30 minute drive. The Southern Upland Way route goes
right past Waterside. A suitable stop off for both ambitious walkers transiting
the route in its entirety and shorter more exploratory walkers looking to visit
Laggangarn and the Wells of Rees or in the opposite direction to Bargrennan.
Golfers – Dumfries and Galloway boasts over 30 golf courses and
the tourist board offers a “Gateway to golf pass” for 3, or 6 rounds on any of
the 26 participating courses. The nearest being a 10 minute drive away in
Newton Stewart, a 18 hole 5,806 yard course (par69) which has spectacular views
from each hole. Waterside’s location offers the golf enthusiast a great rural
escape with great golf just a short journey in multiple directions.
Families/Couple's - If you just want to get away from the chaos
of everyday then Waterside is ideal. If you have planned adventures or just
want to relax and unwind onsite with nature on your doorstep.

Ochiltree Cottage, Waterside Newton Stewart.

We had a wonderful trip to Waterside. The cottage was perfect with everything we needed for a relaxing weekend. Comfy beds, excellent bathroom and a well equipped kitchen perfect for cooking for a group. Rebecca and Dave were so accommodating and made the trip truly one to remember. Thanks so much and we hope to visit again soon!

Amazing stay!

Rebecca and her partner were great through our stay. The cottage had everything we could have possibly needed and the bedrooms meant it was great for a bunch of friends for the night. Thank you so much!

10/10

The perfect cottage for a rural escape. There was a group of 7 of us with a dog and the hosts were extremely accommodating. The facilities were everything we needed, from the kitchen to the hottub and fire pit. A great location to explore from and reach many interesting historical and contemporary areas of culture.

Perfect!

Stayed here for the weekend with another family and had a great time. The outside space and view are amazing, especially if you have kids who like to play football (there is a pitch-sized meadow a minute's walk away). The owner was very helpful providing a BBQ and giving advice on a great place to go for a walk with the family. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a peaceful spot and base to explore this corner of Scotland. Thanks for a great stay!

Great place to relax and spend time with family and friends
