We had a lovely 4 day stay, we were visiting our relative who lives near Lockerbie which was a short drive away so the location was perfect. Host was very friendly and introduced himself when he arrived back from his stay away. Kitchen had plenty of features and tools to be able to cook a good family dinner after being out for the day. Would highly recommend for the location of peace but close enough for amenities. Thanks again for a lovely stay.
