What our customers say about their holidays

  On arrival everything seemed fine. The following morning however we discovered we were sharing the cottage with mice who made their presence quite obvious with mouse dropping over the kitchen floor and inside the kitchen cupboards. This also explained why our dog had woken us up during the night wanting to get into the kitchen. The little pests had torn through the wrapper of my unopened twix bar and had a good old nibble of it. Owner was notified and suggested putting traps and poison down which we declined as we had the dog with us. Luckily neither of us were afraid of mice .. We did leave a day early not because of the mice but we found the mattress on the bed so uncomfortable resulting in back ache it's appreciated that this could be a personal preference but it did effect our stay.

  No faults, no issues, nothing missing. It was truly a home from home, spacious, comfortable, warm, excellent decor and every appliance and comfort we have at home. The log burner really heated up the living room fast although the decent central heating is fabulous for heating the whole house. Abundance of everything, towels, dishcloths, bedding, blankets, cushions, pillows. The rooms are well decorated and relaxing. Location is perfect for walking into town, or to the beach or down to the harbour, or along the road to the Bandstand to view the sunset over the beach. Fabulous house, fabulous location. Hazel is brilliant as a Host, kept in touch, before during and after our stay. Makes a difference.

  Close to the centre of the busy county town, Laurieknowe is a hidden gem. An oasis of restfulness. Comfortable, well equipped and clean. But it is the individuality of the place, the care and attention that has been put into the renovation and creation of the holiday house, that makes it very special. We loved the lovely artwork, the sympathetic renovation of the old coachhouse and the quirkiness. The garden is lovely and full of interest and although we didn't have the weather to sit out, if we did, it would have been perfect. Linda and Alex were great hosts, very helpful and attentive. We hope to come back next time we visit Dumfries.

  Cottage was as described.

  The cleanliness was excellent. We were able to gain entry on day of arrival at 4pm. All instructions were clear. The area is stunning with at least 5 places for evening meals within 10-15 miles. Plenty of local walks and beaches. Skerray itself is nice and quiet. The polytunnel (Torrisdale Tunnel) is worth a visit. However, no proper shop in Tongue so worth taking your own food, though Tesco seem to do a roaring trade in home deliveries. Coffee places mixed and sometimes hard to find. Only slight negative on the cottage is that a dishwasher would have been more use to us than a washing machine.

  We stayed at Fozbrae as we were between houses, we are local to Dumfries and Galloway., so know the area well. Foxbrae was perfect for us very much home from home. Very warm and comfortable, quiet location. The kitchen was extremely well equipped especially as we cooked all the time, good cupboard space for supplied.. The local shop at Colvend is very well stocked and our 6 month old pup loved being so close to the beach. Beautiful views from the lounge. Communication between Kate the owner was excellent and we appreciated her welcome call the first evening. We would recommend this house.
