The reason for not giving a 5/5 on the overall score was mainly due to the garden not being secure enough for our Jack Russell cross. One whole side of garden perimeter & the whole gate was horizontal fence planking, spaced so widely apart, he could easily get out. So unfortunately, our dog was on lead the whole time. Bit of a shame, as we really liked the place otherwise. Perhaps some chicken wire fencing tacked onto lower parts of boundary, may help?? Having said that, it wouldnt deter us from staying here again, if we may?! The views, the quietness, the remote feel of the place, even though Stranraer was only 25 min drive. Along with proper central heating (not temperamental electric storage heaters), amazingly powerful shower, spacious rooms, & thoughtful food hamper, we can see why this cottage scores so highly :-)

Absolutely loved our week up at Mulhill , our second time there . Excellent property, very comfortable and the views are breathtaking. Unfortunately we cant choose our weather for the week. If we were to nitpick about anything, we'd say improve the Wifi / TV signal for bad weather days , a good book came in very handy for sitting in the conservatory.The owners are so nice and helpful, even brought us a Dvd player up so that we could watch a film or two during wet weather . I'm only nitpicking though, please don't let these comments put you off booking this property as you won't be disappointed during warm or even dry weather , so much on your doorstep to visit . It hasn't put us off booking again for next year

Our second visit to this lovely private farmhouse with amazing views. Just as relaxing as last year. Can highly recommend Port logan beach if you have a dog, ours loved it. We also enjoyed a visit to Port Logan House and gardens again a great place with your dog.As for the farmhouse itself an added dish washer was a bonus.A few concerns on the cleanliness of accommodation this time as it was spotless last year, it was just not quite as good but it didn't spoil our stay.
