Welcome to Birds’ Nest, our tiny cottage by the sea.

Birds’ Nest is located on the beautiful Carrick Bay, close to Gatehouse of Fleet, in Dumfries and Galloway. The bay itself is a 2-minute walk from the door and with its gently-sloping beach and sheltered location, it’s a popular place for swimming, boating, fishing or just relaxing.

Birds’ Nest is tiny, but has an airy and un-cluttered feel, thanks to the high ceiling and simple furnishings. We have done our best to combine traditional furnishings with modern, designer lighting and a coastal-inspired colour-scheme, to create a place that feels like home as soon as you step through the door.

Our ‘luxury shed by the sea’ provides the perfect compromise between a cottage and glamping. Accommodation is open-plan and single-storey, with the focus on providing a comfortable base to return to after days out exploring the stunning coast and countryside.
