Everyone had a very good time.

Second time at this cottage - beautiful scenery. Away from everything- which is what we wanted. Well equipped kitchen and fantastic hot tub. You can walk to the local pub, but it’s not the easiest walk - no path and up hill on way back, but do a nice meal. It is so peaceful and has amazing views. Will definitely go back again.

We stayed for half term and The House was great from start to finish, from the arrival instructions to the welcome basket. The rooms were large and fully stocked with everything you'd need from a holiday home with a file with all the information you would want to know about the house, local area, appliances, visitor attractions and places to eat. The Hot tub was great to sit in and watch the night sky even if it was a little cold. The location was good to be out in the country yet so close with Castle Douglas only a few minute drive away with all the shops you would need.
