Staying at Rockpool cottage is a pleasure. Everything you need for a few days is there, right where you need it. And you are thoughtfully hosted from the moment you book. Communication with the hosts is straightforward. The instructions are simple and the interactions helpful and considerate.On arrival you find an eleganty decorated and well thought-out property. The living rooms are comfortable; the kitchen is well-equipped with thoughtful provision of tea, coffee, washing-up liquid, dishwasher tablets, salt, pepper, oil; the bedrooms are homely; the bathrooms sleek; and the garden inviting. There are books, games, and a smart TV. It's all easy.And the quiet triumph in a cottage that isn't looking to draw attention to itself is the decor. The colours of the sand, the rock, the sea, the surf and the hills are used throughout, gently tieing you to your surroundings.All that leaves you with nothing else to think about other than how you'll relax and explore the surrounding coast, towns, villages and countryside.
Cosy, clean comfortable cottage. Lovely stay apart from the weather. Very windy (yellow warning active) causing some chimney noise. But all in all a very enjoyable stay.
Fantastic holiday home
Host very helpfull
House very well looked after
Beautiful inside and outside
Hot tub and barbecue at the ready
Excellent overall
Loved our stay here, everything we were looking for . 5 mins from Isle of Whithorn , close to Garlieston and Whithorn.
Gillian was on hand if we needed anything . The location of the cottage is stunning . The birds singing and the changing skies were incredible.
The cottage itself had everything we needed and the master bed was so comfy .
Would highly recommend a visit to The Hive in Garlieston, ReadingLasses Wigtown and Gather near Gatehouse .
If you are looking for a peaceful place to chill and recharge this is just the place .
Lovely clean compact easy place to relax .
The hot tub is amazing . We couldn’t sample it at night time as the weather was stormy (just the time of year) we did however use it early morning to set us up for the day .
The property is light and spacious, with everything you probably need. Out host, Andy, was usually in the vicinity because of other interests (especially The Hive cafe next door). Andy was very friendly, with time to chat and check everything OK. Catch him over a pint in the excellent Harbour Inn (only 5 doors away) if you can. Recommend the food in both pub and cafe.
