Guests enjoyed the ample facilities, including a playroom, hot tub, and farm animals, which were a hit with children.

Some minor noise from the working farm was noted, but overall, guests look forward to returning.
Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviews consistently mention the property being clean and well-maintained, suggesting high standards of cleanliness that contribute to the homely feel of the cottage.
The property's rural setting is appreciated for its tranquillity and proximity to local walks and attractions. The working farm environment adds to the charm, although it comes with some expected noise.
Guests have highlighted the comfortable beds, high-pressure showers, and the overall cosy atmosphere of the cottage, indicating a high level of comfort during their stay.
The Loft is well-equipped with a hot tub, playroom, and appliances like a dishwasher and washing machine. A single mention of a noisy fridge suggests a slight deduction for maintenance.

Situated on the banks of the River Annan, the historic town of Annan was once the site of Roman camps and the workplace of the writer Thomas Carlyle. In honour of the Royal Charter bestowed by King James V, every year, the town celebrates with parades, massed pipe bands and competitions. Many small towns, villages, hamlets and stunning sandy beaches make up the area around the town. Further afield are the city of Glasgow, the abbeys of Melrose and Jedburgh, plus the northern part of the Lake District and Hadrian's Wall. Annan and the surrounding area are a perfect base, at any time of the year.

It was better than anticipated. Aileen was a fantastic host and ensured we had everything we needed and had left coffee, tea and milk for us so we have a drink once settled in. I checked that we could bring our 3 cats with us as this detail had changed after booking and she was great about this. Our girls absolutely loved it, especially the stairs as we live in a flat. They were playing for hours then chilled out. The beds are soo comfy found it hard to wake up, the hot tub was amazing and gave me such relief from my osteoarthritis. We enjoyed the cottage so much we've rebooked for next year for 2 weeks for my 60th birthday. I would happily live there. Don't forget to visit the cows but ask first as this is a busy farm

Would definitely recommend. Owner was very friendly. The kids loved seeing the cows and the donkey. We visited the dino park close by and enjoyed walks along the river. Hopefully we can come back again next year :)

Little bit Noisy, but then it is a working farm, and advertised as a working farm, so you know what to expect. Annan, is a great little town, with lovely river walks for the dogs and we went on an entertaining ghost tour. Plenty of places to eat, and easy distance to local attractions. The farm animals looked clean and well looked after,We had a really nice time
