Sunnyside Cottage is praised for its cleanliness, comfortable beds, and thoughtful welcome pack. The location in New Galloway is appreciated for its tranquillity and proximity to local attractions. Some guests noted maintenance issues, particularly with flooring and the shower, but these did not detract significantly from the overall positive experience.
The cottage is consistently described as clean and well-presented, with only one mention of it needing a better clean. This suggests a high standard of cleanliness overall.
The location is generally well-regarded for its quietness and suitability for exploring the area, although one review mentioned a lack of activities in the village.
Comfort is highlighted by several reviews, with particular praise for the comfortable beds and the warmth of the cottage. Only minor issues with the shower temperature and a missing shaver plug were noted.
Facilities are adequate with a well-equipped kitchen, but several reviews mention maintenance issues such as uneven flooring and shower holder problems, indicating room for improvement.
The welcome pack was highly appreciated by guests, indicating thoughtfulness. However, it should be noted that such gestures are a bonus and not guaranteed with every stay.

On the whole our stay at Sunnyside Cottage was great. Clean, comfortable and plenty of equipment in the kitchen. Bed was very comfortable and the cottage was in a great location. There were a couple of minor issues for us. The flooring at the bottom the stairs is uneven, and could cause an issue, to someone who is a bit unsteady on their feet. Also the back court could also do with a wee upgrade. However, these minor issues would not put us off staying again at Sunnyside

Felt the house had some maintenance issues. The floor in porch at the bottom of stairs needed fixing, it was very loose and uneven and was dangerous and someone could easily have an accidentThe shower kept falling out of its holder. The rear outside space could have been a lot better and felt it was something else that was neglected. Windows needed a cleanThe house was comfortable but think ithings should be improved and not neglected if its to continue as a holiday let.New Galloway Village very quiet.

Cosy cottage, quiet location. Comfortable bed. Plenty of hot water. Heating excellent. All utensils, crockery good.Flooring inside the front door/bottom of the stairs requires structural attention.The yard could do with a makeover so that it would make a nicer space for guests to sit outside in nice weather. Maybe some blinds on the kitchen windows, for a bit of privacy. Lovely welcome pack: wine, coffee, biscuits and milk was very much appreciated after a long drive.
