Eskdalemuir is a quiet rural village, located in Dumfries and Galloway, under an hour’s drive to each of the towns of Dumfries and Carlisle on the English border and under 15 miles from the charming towns of Langholm and Lockerbie, both having primary and secondary schools, supermarkets and excellent medical clinics, and both served with public transport from Eskdalemuir. The house is set back from the A709, that provides swift travel to the surrounding areas and further afield, and public transport is a short walk away. In the heart of the countryside, the Esk Valley is a popular destination for motorbikers, cyclists, walkers and tourists. This idyllic location has superb scenery, with plentiful countryside walking paths, including along the nearby Esk River. The Samye Ling Tibetan Monastery also provides a pleasant mile-long walk from the village to the monastery. In the valley, there is a prehistoric trail including two stone circles, a prehistoric settlement and a fort – all within walking distance from the house, and up to 80 other sites of archaeological interest in close proximity. The Old School Hub and Cafe across the road from the house is a thriving centre for the community, offering art and culture, social and health events, courses and support for residents.
