A nice cottage, clean, comfortable, well appointed, but lacking a few things like chopping boards and serving bowls.As a suggestion, the addition of secure bike storage would be good which is possible at the back of the cottage.Local amenities were limited with nearest town being Kirkcudbright about 3 miles away.

Close to local amenities and A75 to allow you to travel further afield.We had the most relaxing holiday and loved the whole experience. Will definitely return, thank you to the owners for making this a beautiful experience.
