Sunnyside Cottage is praised for its comfort, cleanliness, and thoughtful touches like a welcome pack. The location in a quiet town is ideal for exploring the Galloway Forest Park. Guests appreciate the well-equipped kitchen, comfortable beds, and cosy atmosphere, though some mention minor maintenance issues and suggest updates.
Most guests found the cottage to be very clean and well-presented, with only one report of subpar cleaning on arrival. The positive remarks on cleanliness from several reviews suggest that the one instance may have been an anomaly.
The cottage is appreciated for its quiet location, suitable for exploring nearby attractions. However, some guests noted the limited activities within the immediate vicinity, slightly affecting the score.
Guests consistently report a comfortable stay, highlighting the comfortable beds and the warm, cosy atmosphere of the cottage. The comfort of the property is a frequently mentioned positive aspect.
While the kitchen is well-equipped and the beds are comfortable, several guests mention issues with the shower, uneven flooring, and the need for some maintenance. These points suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
The welcome pack left for guests is frequently mentioned and appreciated, indicating a high level of thoughtfulness from the host. It is noted, however, that such gifts are a kind gesture and may not be provided every time.

This was our second stay at Sunnyside and although we had a lovely stay one downside was an issue at the bottom of the stairs. The floor is very uneven and unfortunately I have mobility issues and I found it very difficult when going up and down the stairs. Sadly the property felt and looked a little bit unloved and tired. Despite this I would recommend this property and would stay again but feel the issues would need to be addressed.

This was our second stay here in the cottage and it was as great as the first time. If you want value for money and peacefulnes, then this is the place for you. I highly recommend it. Our host Joe is incredibly friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble for him.
