Burnfoot House and cottages are situated in the picturesque Eskdale Valley three and a half miles from the town centre of Langholm in the Scottish Borders. There is over a mile of fishing on the River Esk and guests are able to fish in season by prior arrangement. There are many beautiful walks in the hills and by the river.
The five
cottages, situated in the grounds of Burnfoot House are a conversion
from a stable block built in 1852. One room nearby shows an original
stable. The cottages vary in size from one bedroom to three bedrooms.
They are all recently refurbished and rewired and have gas central
heating and new fitted kitchens. Cottage guests are welcome to
breakfast in the main House (approx £5 per head).
Burnfoot House itself enjoys
extensive grounds. It was built in 1850 for the Malcolm family who
gained recognition for their military and naval service. It is to one
of the Malcolms that the famous Langholm monument is dedicated.
Amenities - Plenty of car parking, walking, fishing (by prior arrangement). Three and a half miles away in Langholm are:-2 supermarkets, 3 pubs, a restaurant, cafe, take away, shops and tourist attractions. Two of the new for 2000 sign-posted Langholm walks pass close to the property. For the nature lover and bird spotter there is much to discover - many wild flowers, deer, otter, red squirrel and kingfisher to mention but a few.
