The location is generally praised for its tranquillity and convenience for exploring the surrounding area, though some guests noted the view from the front and the local eateries were not as great.
Guests find the beds very comfortable and the cottage cosy, contributing to a restful stay. However, one review mentioned worn lounge seating, slightly impacting the comfort score.
While the kitchen is well-equipped and the garden is appreciated, some guests feel that certain aspects, such as the oven and seating, need updating. The internet service also appears to be lacking for some entertainment needs.

Very comfortable and convenient location for exploring Galloway. David, the owner, was very helpful and welcoming. Only downside was the shower over the bath.
