Beautiful, clean bungalow. Everything you need is their. Welcome pack was super: Milk, Wafers, Biscuits, Prosecco. Lovely & warm, soon heated through when we came back. Netflix was on tv. Lidl close by. Couldn't hear low amount of traffic on road outside. Plenty of tea & coffee. Great large back garden which included large summer house (unfortunately it was too chilly for us to use it). Kitchen even had air fryer. We had a brilliant stay their, thank you to the owners.

Nice clean property. Well maintained. On main road. But has a nice garden and garden room. Not much in Stranraer. However if you get out about there are some lovely places to visit. The upstairs shower room has everything. But no real height to it. I am 5foot 6. And banged my head on the sloping ceiling. Just about every time I went in there. Shower door won’t open up fully so be aware.
