Clachanbuth (pronounced Clackanboo) is a delightful self-catering holiday accommodation for 2 or 3, in the quiet forestry village of Glentrool, Dumfries & Galloway, south west Scotland, comprising
2 bedrooms, sitting room, sun lounge, dining kitchen, bathroom, with hillside garden.
The cottage has just recently been converted from the village shop hence its name Clachanbuth ..
gaelic for village shop! It now provides ideal holiday accommodation
for couples or small families who are looking for a peaceful holiday
for either relaxation or outdoor activities in wonderful, natural,
scenic surroundings.
On the doorstep is the beautiful Forest Park. From April to October,
walk down to Stroan Bridge for a coffee and homemade cake at the Glentrool Visitor Centre
beside the lovely Water of Minnoch and Falls. The Centre offers
information, refreshments & gift shop and there are way-marked
trails, cycle routes and picnic areas.
Don't miss the stunning beauty of Loch Trool, and Bruce's Stone just 3 miles past the Visitor Centre or why not try out the newly-opened 7-stanes mountain bike trail?
