A simply lovely cottage in a very quiet location, very clean and well furnished. Some nice touches from the owners like providing bread and milk or when you arrive. Easy to get to the huge number of attractions in the area.

Very nice, clean and cosy. In between fields with beautiful surroundings. We saw deers, a hare and many beautiful birds. It’s situated in the middle of many touristic spots. We have seen a lot in one week but not everything. We would recommend it to our family and friends.

Cottage only really accessible by car. Cotttage needed a good clean, there were hundreds of spiders and webs. Sofa, towels and bedding all had stains. Other than that the cottage had everything you would need and was very peaceful. Handy for Castle Douglas and Threave Castle Gardens, but many attractions were closed or only open a few days a week, so you need to check opening times and plan you visit carefully.
