Bowling Green Cottage is charming beautifully renovated property featured in the 2026 semi final of Scotland’s Home of the Year.

It is clear from the initial impression that the property has been vastly improved throughout. There are new double-glazed windows and doors, and the kitchen, and upstairs bedrooms, benefit from triple glazing.

The property features two/three bedrooms, the third presently being utilised as a study, a lounge, shower room, with comfort height WC, a separate cloakroom and kitchen/diner. To the rear of the property is a useful boot room, potting shed or crafting area.

The rear garden has been extensively landscaped. Established shrubs and trees are interspersed with fruit bushes, flowers, herbs and grasses. Winding your way up the garden through the tapestry of scent and colour, a lovely summerhouse sits at the rear boundary offering views over the countryside towards the Galloway hills.

QUOTE FROM THE CURRENT OWNER – “It’s a really healing home. It’s got a lovely energy, which is a nice thing to think about when people buy properties. Think about the history and the people who have occupied the home before, because it absorbs everything,”

QUOTE FROM BANJO BEALE (Judge of Scotland’s Home of the Year) – “A canvas of creativity, a sanctuary for the soul”.
