Description
Ae Farm Cottages, direct access to the bike tracks at Ae, secure parking and washing and drying facilities.  Fine views of fields and hills and a pond to cool off in. 
 
The Ae Forest is home of one of the world famous 7stanes mountain bike trails and, centrally situated, is an ideal base to explore all of them from.   And don't forget the Drumlanrig trails at nearby Thornhill.
 
The three cottages are part of our old stone steading and all are centrally heated by a wood fired boiler to reduce your carbon footprint.  Our 60 acres sustain hedgerows, meadows, riverbanks and much wildlife as well as a fold of Highland cattle and Welsh Mountain ponies.  Pets with well behaved owners are welcome.

The Shepherds Cottage (sleeps 4) living room/dining room, open plan kitchen; double bedroom, second bedroom with twin beds (cot and high chair available on request) and shower room. Logs for the stove, together with linen and towels are provided FoC.

Food & Drink  - the Bike Shop at Ae does snacks, soups and the occasional meal while the Forester's Pub in the village pulls pints, but no food.  The hotels of Thornhill & Moffat do the traditional fare to a high and generous standard and nouvelle and ethnic cuisines are well represented in Dumfries.

There is a market every week-end on the Whitesands in Dumfries where fruit and vegetables can usually be bought cheaply from cheery people.  If all else fails there is a 24/7 Tesco’s in Dumfries.
