Elm Cottage - a house that sleeps 8 guests in 4 bedrooms

Kippford is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Dumfries and Galloway and there are always things to see and do around the village. It is just a short stroll through the village to the local pubs The Tee Room Bar and The Mariner and also a lovely tea room The Ark, where you can enjoy delicious lunches and scrumptious cakes whilst taking in the views across the estuary. (Please note that seasonal opening hours do apply).

Within a short drive are a number of sandy beaches and an excellent selection of golf courses including the championship links course at Southerness (fees payable).

For the outdoor enthusiast this is fantastic walking and cycling country. There are numerous walks to the neighbouring village of Rocklcliffe and for those looking for a longer walk you can continue further along the coast to Portling and Sandyhills. For Cyclists within a short distance are two of the main sections of the 7Stanes Mountain Bike Network at Dalbeattie and the other at Dumfries. There are excellent Nature and Bird Reserves again within a short drive at WWT Caerlaverock and RSPB Mersehead. For those looking to experience some Scottish history & culture, Dumfries, home the Scotland’s national Bard Robert Burns is approximately 30 minutes away with his house, Mausoleum and the infamous Globe Inn, slightly further to the north is Ellisland where he farmed. NTS properties include Threave House & Estate near Castle Douglas, a must for any horticulturalist and Broughton House in Kirkcudbright, home to Scots artist E.A. Hornel.
