From coaching inns to modern bothies and eco campsites, all these places take in fabulous sea views and majestic landscapes
As cosy as they sound, Sea View Snugs hunker into the hillside in this bucolic corner of south-west Scotland. The 18 individually designed cabins – think smart beige boxes – are on a 1,000-acre estate in Gatehouse of Fleet. Most sleep two, a couple can accommodate four, some allow dogs, and five have hot tubs. All have a natural theme: the Ben is named after Ben John, the hill that forms the backdrop, the Shore has a coastal vibe. Gather is a rustic-chic, contemporary glass-fronted on-site restaurant, dishing up locally sourced bistro-style food and panoramic coastal views. On the doorstep is Cardoness Castle, a 15th-century tower house to clamber around, and a bucketful of sandy beaches from Carrick to Mossyard and Cardoness.
