Guests that stayed at this property said
Guests have described the cottage as 'spotlessly clean'. The high level of cleanliness is a recurring compliment, indicating meticulous maintenance.
The cottage's location is celebrated for its beauty and tranquillity, with easy access to local attractions. The surrounding countryside and bird life are particular highlights.
Reviews suggest the cottage is warm, comfortable, and cosy, even during bad weather. However, one review mentioned the need for minor finishing touches to enhance comfort.
The property is well-equipped, contributing to a pleasant stay. Although one review mentioned it being 'a little dated internally', this does not seem to detract significantly from the overall experience.
While the hosts are described as friendly and helpful, there are no specific mentions of gifts or special touches that would fall under 'thoughtfulness'. Therefore, this score cannot be provided.
About this property
A delightful holiday cottage on a working farm with large courtyard to rear and only a short distance from the market town of Castle Douglas.
A delightful cottage on a working farm (close to the owner's farmhouse) with large courtyard to rear and only a short distance from the market town of Castle Douglas. The owners are very keen and enthusiastic gardeners
Visitors are very welcome to wander through them to explore and enjoy.
Castle Douglas known as the 'Food Town' has a wide selection of independent shops, restaurants, cafes and pubs for eating out, a swimming pool & gym, theatre (which combines as a cinema), library and an 18 hole golf course. Threave Estate (part of National Trust for Scotland) lies on the edge of the town where the gardens and house are well worth a visit, as is Threave Castle.
The cottage is an ideal centre from which to explore the whole of Galloway with its choice of walks, choose from cliff top, forest or more strenuous hill walks. Fishing opportunities abound be it Sea, Loch or River. There are many beaches within a short drive of the cottage. The Forestry Commission 7Stanes Trails are located throughout the region with the nearest being at Dalbeattie (about 15 minutes by car) with others at Dumfries & Newton Stewart. Golf courses are plentiful throughout the area.

Lovely place. Just needs a couple of minor finishing touches to make it truly home from home. Lovely garden and patio. Can't fault the location. Level of comfort was just a bit sparce in a few areas.
