Silver lodge was a cosy comfortable cottage. Jacqui and Mark were great,welcoming text from them asking if everything was ok and if we needed anything to get in touch. It was perfect for touring the area Isle of Whithorn,Port Patrick and the surrounding area. The people of Creetown were friendly and offered us walks for our four legged companion.

We had a wonderful week in this lovely little cottage. It is equipped with everything you need on holiday, including a washing machine and a gas fire in case it gets chilly. We especially enjoyed the great garden and the extra wide bed. The cottage is an ideal base for walks and excursions in the south of Scotland.
