Location
The nearest primary schools are Caerlaverock (located within the nearby village of Glencaple), Brownhall & St Michaels all held in excellent local regard as are the nearest secondary schools, St Joseph's College and Dumfries High School. The immediate surrounding area has an abundance of wildlife including Roe Deer, Curlew, Barnacle Geese and Barn Owls to name but a few. Indeed Badgers and Brown Hares are almost daily visitors to the garden itself. Caerlaverock is rich in bio-diversity, with landscapes and history
of national importance. In recognition of this, it has been featured in several television programmes. Due to its location and the resultant lack of light pollution, Croft Cottage also enjoys dramatic night skies.
The nearby village of Glencaple itself is vibrant and has a lovely close-knit community feel. The Nith Hotel and the Glencaple Boathouse restaurants are extremely popular and have a good reputation for lovely food. Dumfries town centre is attractive and reached within a 10-minute drive and offers a combination of good shopping facilities and historic buildings.
The town is also the home of a substantial college and university campus located within beautiful grounds overlooking the town and has three golf courses.
A regular local bus servicing the town centre stops in the immediate vicinity, and for further afield Dumfries train station provides regular links to Glasgow and all points south, as does the bus station situated on the Whitesands by the river. There are regular and quick train connections to Edinburgh from the small town of Lockerbie, just a few miles away, and which has a regular bus service with Dumfries.
The M6 and M74 road networks are accessible nearby at Moffat, Gretna and Lockerbie.
The surrounding area offers glorious countryside and historic ruins with easy access to the beautiful coast and a multitude of sporting and country pursuits including sailing, horse riding, mountain biking, fishing, golf and fine coastal and woodland walk.
