luxury house for sale Langholm, United Kingdom
House with garden and terrace Langholm (United Kingdom)
Quietly situated in glorious countryside, Burnfoot House is offered for sale as a whole with one main residence and five stone-built holiday cottages, detached double garage, garden grounds and one mile of mixed single and double bank fishing on the River Esk (sea trout and salmon). In all, approximately 14 acres. This impressive B Listed country home is a fine example of the Victorian Scottish vernacular, and offers well-presented accommodation over three floors, with retained original features including ornate ceiling cornices and a grand main staircase.Burnfoot House belonged to the Duke of Buccleuch in the 18th century and has strong ties to the Malcolm family who travelled extensively in Asia with one family member, Stephana, being credited with introducing curry to Scotland in the 1780s. The Malcolms were also a naval family, and the fire in the drawing room is rumoured to have come from a supporting frigate at the Battle of Trafalgar.All properties have been very well maintained by the present owners and this portfolio offers an excellent business/lifestyle opportunity with scope for significant letting income but is equally suitable for multi-generational living. Main HouseA solid timber front door opens into a generous porch and the large, pillared reception hall. The hall is extremely impressive with original flagstone floors, high ceilings and a fine solid timber staircase that gently ascends to the first floor. There are four reception rooms on the ground floor. The drawing room is a fantastic space boasting high ceilings, a dual aspect with tall sash windows, a ‘captain’s’ stove set within an impressive mantelpiece and ornate ceiling cornice work.The large library is located immediately off the reception hall and offers tall windows to the front elevation, built-in bookshelves and a fireplace. This room could be used for a multitude of purposes, as could the formal dining room and snug/study, the latter of which is presently used as a cosy sitting room with wood burning stove.The kitchen/breakfast room has been designed by Neptune and comprises solid wood cabinetry with granite worksurfaces, underfloor heating and a Lacanche range cooker. Ancillary rooms to the rear of the house include a separate pantry, utility area, cloakroom/WC and store. A secondary staircase is also located to the rear of the property. Upstairs, there is the principal bedroom with large modern ensuite bathroom comprising shower and separate bath, and five further generous double bedrooms (one with an en suite shower room). All bedrooms enjoy high ceilings and large windows, and some boast fireplaces. There are two family bathrooms and a laundry room.A secondary staircase to the rear of the first-floor landing rises up to the top floor, which could be used as a self-contained unit, and which comprises a kitchen with Habitat units and Belfast sink, sitting room, dining room, two further flexible use rooms, an office, store cupboard and a bathroom. In all the main house extends to approximately 14,000 sq ft. CottagesThe five cottages occupy the charming former stone stable block and range from one to three bedrooms. Four of the cottages have been set up as holiday lets and bring in a steady income, although more could be done to advertise these, therefore generating more revenue. The fifth cottage, Groom’s Cottage, has until recently been let out on a short assured tenancy but has just undergone a full refurbishment to include rewiring, replumbing, kitchen, bathroom, flooring and would make an ideal permanent residence for an additional family member, or member of staff, perhaps.

House with garden Wigton (United Kingdom)
The Old Rectory, Bowness-on-Solway T/A Wallsend GuesthouseThe Old Rectory is a handsome former rectory occupying a remarkable position at the western end of Hadrian’s Wall, within the Solway Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.This is a substantial and highly versatile residence — currently operated as a successful guest house — yet equally suited to becoming an exceptional private family home with generous self-contained annex, equestrian potential and an established glamping and camping enterprise already in place.Few properties combine architectural character, land, income potential and setting so convincingly.The HouseA solid front door opens into a welcoming entrance porch laid with herringbone flooring — an immediate signal of the quality and detailing within.The principal hall flows into a generous reception lounge where a sandstone fireplace with log burner forms a striking focal point. Painted wood panelling adds texture and warmth, balancing the scale of the room and reinforcing the property’s period heritage.The dining room is elegant and well-proportioned, retaining original coving and detailed window panelling, with oak flooring underfoot. It is a space designed for gathering — equally suited to family occasions or larger-scale entertaining.At the heart of the home sits an impressive kitchen of genuine substance. Fitted with high-quality shaker-style cabinetry and contrasting worktops, the room centres around a large island unit. A double-width Smeg range provides six gas burners, an expansive griddle and twin ovens, supported by dual sinks and extensive storage throughout. A substantial walk-in pantry houses multiple fridge freezers and shelving, ensuring functionality on a scale rarely found in residential property. A separate laundry and utility room adds further practicality, with access to the side elevation, coal shed and central yard space.From the main hall, a concealed “secret” door leads to a snug — an intimate secondary reception where a further log burner provides a natural focal point. Large windows frame views across the parking area and gardens, creating a comfortable retreat within the larger home.Bedroom AccommodationThe first floor currently comprises five beautifully styled double bedrooms and one single bedroom, all benefitting from en suite facilities. The rooms enjoy a variety of outlooks — from mature gardens and surrounding countryside to far-reaching views across the Solway coast.The configuration offers flexibility: generous family bedrooms, guest suites, or continued hospitality use without structural alteration.Annex / Manager’s AccommodationPositioned to provide both privacy and convenience, the annex offers a generous double bedroom with patio doors opening directly onto the garden and rear yard. The layout allows direct access to the kitchen and utility without disturbing guests — ideal for managed hospitality use.For residential purchasers, this becomes a highly practical one-bedroom annex. Perfect for multigenerational living, older children, visiting relatives or private workspace, it provides independence without separation from the main house.Grounds & External FeaturesThe property sits within a generous 3.6 acre plot in total, with mature and beautifully established gardens. Striking redwood trees lend stature and permanence, while sweeping lawns create a sense of privacy and calm.To the lower section of the garden lies a pond area — an ideal setting for a kitchen garden, summer house, studio or simply a peaceful seating area.The annex enjoys its own private garden space, creating a secluded retreat separate from the main grounds.To the side of the property lies the camping and glamping area. Currently home to five well-positioned glamping pods, the site has infrastructure and groundwork in place for two further pods should a new owner wish to expand. There is additional space for tented camping, supported by a dedicated toilet and kitchen block.Along the lower boundary of the property sits a paddock (1.75 acres), presenting clear equestrian potential with ample space for stable construction. A gravel access road currently serving guests would equally accommodate horse boxes and trailers with ease.The positioning at the end of the Hadrian’s Wall path — walked by approximately 10,000 people annually — provides a steady and location-driven demand for tourism accommodation, offering significant scope for continued or expanded trading.Location — Bowness-on-Solway Bowness-on-Solway is one of Cumbria’s most distinctive coastal villages, positioned on the edge of the Solway Firth with expansive tidal views stretching towards the Scottish Borders. The setting is defined by wide skies, open pasture and the quiet drama of the coastline — a landscape designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. As the western terminus of Hadrian’s Wall — a UNESCO World Heritage Site — the village attracts consistent year-round visitors while retaining a genuine residential feel. Unlike many tourist destinations, Bowness remains a living community, not simply a seasonal stop. Within the village itself are well-regarded everyday amenities including a traditional local pub, café and bistro, a primary school, village hall and community facilities — all contributing to its self-contained and welcoming character. Bowness also boasts a bus service to / from Carlisle, running 7 days a week. The northern fells of the Lake District National Park lie within easy reach to the south, placing some of England’s most celebrated walking, cycling and climbing landscapes on the doorstep. Carlisle is approximately fifteen miles away, providing access to the M6 motorway and mainline rail services. It is coastal, connected and quietly exceptional — offering rural depth, community and accessibility in equal measure.A Property of OptionsThe Old Rectory is a rare proposition.A substantial period residence.A flexible multigenerational home.An established hospitality and glamping enterprise.Land suitable for equestrian use.A location tied directly to one of Britain’s most iconic walking routes.Whether retained as a lifestyle business, transitioned into a private coastal home with supplementary income, or further developed to maximise its potential, the foundations are already in place.It is not simply a property — it is an opportunity shaped by location, land and versatility.GENERAL REMARKS AND INFORMATIONViewings: Strictly by appointment through the sole selling agents Fine & Country.
