    Me and my doggies loved our stay at this beautiful cottage. The gardens were so lovely & the cottage was decorated beautifully. it was clean, spacious & bright! It has a wood burning fire which was just lovely on the evening. It felt so homely & cosy & it had everything you needed for a perfect stay ! Plenty of books & games and information on walks & places to eat! The host was warm, friendly & helpful ! I didn’t want to leave !

    There was nothing that we would change, it was perfect.

    We loved everything, Petra was a wonderful host, very friendly and helpful. The cottage had character and was warm and cosy, it was very well equipped, there was a good selection of books to read. The location was ideal to explore the local area which has plenty to see and do. The holiday was very good value for money. We will certainly be looking to book again in the not to distant future. An added bonus was the private parking space directly outside the cottage.

    Our only criticism really was that the bathroom was chilly for having a shower if you are elderly.

    We received a warm welcome from our host. Loved having a log fire, particularly as it was cool in the room albeit the heating was on all day. The kitchen was exceptionally well equipped and the bathroom had a walk in shower. The area was stunning with some scenic walks and drives. We will definitely be back.

    Nothing it was perfect

    An absolutely beautiful spacious cottage with garden, a fully equipped kitchen, bookcase full of books, games and dvds, a lovely en-suite bathroom and big bedroom/living area with log burner. Honestly, it was a perfect calming retreat. In a great location for lots of walks and beaches. I loved my stay so much and Petra was such a fabulous, helpful but unobtrusive host that I’m already planning when I can return.

    There is nowhere in the nearby town to walk to for a drink or something to eat.

    Self catering with a kitchen which had everything we needed. Lovely shower room and adjoining bedroom with all the facilities we needed

    The cottage was adorable, it has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The kitchen is well set up and the garden area is extremely pleasant. Ideal location for a base to go out there and explore Creetown, Newton Stewart, Wigtown, Kirkcudbright and other areas. Petra is a brilliant host!
