Park Cottage

Gatehouse of Fleet lies within walking distance, a working town with independent shops, cafés and the Mill on the Fleet, which documents local crafts and heritage. The Solway Coast's beaches and coves are close by, and Kirkcudbright (known for its artist community) and Castle Douglas (a food destination) are both within easy reach. Woodland walks begin at Park Cottage itself, leading into Fleet Oak Woods, while the Galloway Forest Park offers marked trails and cycle routes through the surrounding landscape.

This five-bedroom cottage sits within the grounds of the Cally Palace Hotel and comes with free access to its recreational facilities: a heated indoor swimming pool (15m × 6m), gym, putting green and croquet lawn. The property sleeps 12 across five bedrooms and three bathrooms. Downstairs are two living areas (one with a pool table), a kitchen with electric cooker, dishwasher and two fridge-freezers, and a shower room. Upstairs, a double bedroom has an ensuite bath and shower; two further doubles and one five-bed room complete the layout, served by a family bathroom. An enclosed garden with seating area opens onto 150 acres of grounds shared with hotel guests. One dog stays free. The essentials—electricity, wi-fi, bed linen and towels—are covered. No smoking throughout.
