We were so happy to see Cross Cottage again! Its like going home for us. Everything you need for a cosy and comfortable break. Close to town for great eating places and local emenities of Gatehouse of Fleet. Lots of walks from the doorstep. Close to the larger towns and some nice beaches. We love this area of Scotland. .The cottage is beside the golf course and you may catch a cricket match from the back garden if you're lucky.
