An upside down house, the bedrooms are on the ground floor and are both cosy with thick carpets and comfortable beds and bedding. Upstairs the open plan living space is bright and airy with floor to ceiling windows and doors.

This wonderful mid-terrace property is in the heart of this charming little town. Take a stroll over to the mill at the Fleet Visitor Centre, where you can learn the history of the village, once a thriving industrial town - perhaps difficult to envisage in modern day times. The beautiful Cardoness Castle stands at the entrance to the town and if you climb to the top you can enjoy the most amazing views of the surrounding area.
A short drive along the coast will take you to the beautiful beaches of Cardoness and Mossyard, where you can laze away a few hours or more under the sun. For the thrill seeker a visit to Laggan Outdoor Centre is a must, where you can have a go on one of the longest zip wire rides in the country.

Our third visit to the Old Posting Stables. The flat is in a very quiet location in Gatehouse of Fleet, but only a short walk away from shops and restaurants, including the excellent coffee house on the corner nearby. The flat is clean, spacious and comfortable with a lovely modern shower room and well equipped kitchen. We appreciated Vikki's thoughtful welcome pack and it was lovely to be able to make a cup of tea as soon as we arrived. There are lots of beautiful walks locally and the coast is stunning. Altogether a very enjoyable, relaxing week.
