Nordlys Cottage is a detached traditional stone cottage nestled on the edge of Galloway Forest Dark Sky Park. This was the first forest in the UK to achieve dark sky status and on clear nights it offers breathtakingly beautiful skies full of stars. Enjoy the unique experience of viewing these from a comfy king size bed or a hot bubble bath through the large Velux windows above. If you are very lucky and head out into the dark park, you could catch a glimpse of the Northern Lights.
