The rural setting is appreciated for its peace and proximity to walking areas, though the distance to local amenities slightly lowers the score.

Lovely part of Scotland ideal for hikers. Ideal for peace and quiet. Shop 10 mins away but only open until 2 Girvan about 30 mins away. I imagine it is lovely in the summer. Lots of information in the package file. Owners up the road so perfect if any issues.

We enjoyed the location and scenery of the cottage but unfortunately there appeared to be a lack of housekeeping and on the last night and final morning there was no heating or hot water. This was disappointing as we paid for the use of the cottage which unfortunately did not meet the standards expected and inevitably impacted our stay.
