We’ve just come back from a lovely stay at The Longhouse. The house was really well equipped and had everything you needed for your stay. The wi-fi isn’t great but it meant the teens put down their phones and joined in with games and conversations! The hot tub is lovely and we all enjoyed sitting out there admiring the cows and hares in the adjoining field! The location is so peaceful and a good base for exploring the area. We loved doing the Galloway Kite Trail around Loch Kenn and exploring Kirkcudbright. Thank you for a lovely week in your beautiful house.
