Guests say
Terraughtie Cottage East receives high praise for its warm, welcoming atmosphere, modern amenities, and large, dog-friendly garden with a covered hot tub. Its proximity to Dumfries and local attractions, alongside a peaceful, secluded setting, makes it a favoured choice. While most guests enjoyed their stay, a few noted issues with dampness and limited kitchen equipment.
The majority of reviews describe the cottage as spotless and clean. However, one review mentioned a damp smell and perceived dirtiness, which slightly lowers the overall cleanliness score.
The location is generally appreciated for being close to Dumfries and attractions, offering a balance of convenience and seclusion. Some guests noted the need for a car and the lack of walking paths, which affects the score.
Guests find the cottage cosy and comfortable, with a few criticisms regarding the size of the shower and dampness affecting clothes and bedding. The large garden and hot tub add to the comfort level.
Facilities are well-regarded, especially the hot tub and garden. However, some guests reported issues with TV reception and inadequate kitchen equipment, indicating room for improvement in maintenance and facilities.
While some guests appreciated the welcome gifts, there is not enough information to assess the consistency or quality of these gestures across all reviews. Therefore, it is politely noted that such gifts are not guaranteed and the score is set to null.
