Been to the house a number of times and will go again. Lovely location with great views on a quiet road close to Rockcliffe We had very mixed weather, the house though is warm and cosy with enough space to find a quiet spot to read or just take in the view House is all on one level which is a bonus but be aware there are steps down to the garden area House has all the amenities you will need for a nice stay it is not luxurious but perfectly comfortable Pet friendly home in a really nice part of the world, there is a small shop about a mile or so away and a CO-OP in Dalbeattie about 6 miles away. Supermarkets in Castle Douglas about 12 miles away You need to use the car to gain full benefit

Lovely cottage in a fabulous, peaceful location. Issue with leaking kettle sorted out promptly by the owners. Still has a dripping tap in the double bathroom and the bushes down the steps into the garden could do with a really good trim! Got spiked a few times during the week! However, looking to book again for next year…
