Cosy, well equipped house where we spent a very restful week. The bed was comfy, the shower was great and hot water plentiful. The kitchen had everything we needed and was lovely and spacious. The location is great: shops on the doorstep and parking is easy.

We have had a really lovely holiday - a perfect place for quiet, rest and beautiful nature around you. The house was warm, comfortable and well equipped. The welcome pack was generous and the honey next door delicious. We had a warm welcome from all including local pubs and the community cafe. Also a perfect location if you love books - Wigtown is just a few miles away. We will definitely return.
