2 bed detached bungalow for sale

Millcroft Road, Minnigaff, Newton Stewart DG8

Inniskeel and Stone Cottage enjoy a picturesque setting within the highly regarded Cree Valley area of Dumfries and Galloway, on the edge of the popular towns of Newton Stewart and Minnigaff. Situated on opposite sides of the River Cree and linked by the historic Bridge of Cree, the two communities together form an attractive and vibrant hub renowned for its scenic surroundings and welcoming atmosphere.
Often referred to as the “Gateway to the Galloway Hills”, Newton Stewart is a thriving market town established in the 17th century and offers an excellent range of local amenities including independent shops, supermarkets, cafés, restaurants, healthcare facilities and schooling. Nearby Minnigaff provides a quieter village setting rich in local history and character.
The area is particularly popular with outdoor enthusiasts, offering exceptional opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing and wildlife pursuits. Galloway Forest Park and the renowned Kirroughtree Visitor Centre, part of the celebrated 7stanes mountain biking network, are both within easy reach.
Combining beautiful countryside, strong community spirit and excellent recreational opportunities, the Cree Valley remains one of Dumfries and Galloway’s most desirable locations.
