A dear little gingerbread-style house in the prettiest part of the estate with your own pontoon and boat on the edge of a shimmering lake

Just a short walk from the house is the perfect picnic or barbecue spot. On balmy days you can paddle in the boat, swim in the water, watch swans at sunset and warm yourselves by the fire pit as stars emerge. Indoors is equally pleasing with bold colours, comfortable seating and a nifty kitchen – you're left a generous welcome pack, but if you prefer you can choose ready-to-eat meals from the estate kitchen.

Two pretty bedrooms (one up, one down) have en suite showers with estate soaps and lotions – if you want a bath it's outside in the open garden with fabulous views over the water and much greenery. You should feel nicely enveloped in nature with plenty of birdlife.

It's three miles to Portpatrick and The Crown pub, a post office and shop, brewery and golf course. Or join in with activities on the estate – from clay pigeon shooting to archery. Mostly you'll want to just stay in this restful haven.

Local points of interest from Anne Tristine Nguyen:

Anne Tristine Nguyen:

You're not simply staying in a Castle Estate: you are staying on one of the most beautiful spots on the planet. Dunskey Estate boasts two waterfalls, two lochs, and three beaches, with the most magnificent walks along the craggy Scottish coastline.
Two lochs nestle into the hills and rhododendron banks. Wander along the glen walk past a rushing waterfall, and a babbling brook, to the two beaches to spot dolphins and seals. Dunskey Golf Course and the picturesque Portpatrick Harbour is 2minutes away.
