Gelston holiday lettings

It was an amazing place and so peaaceful

Lovely property, well presented. Amenities simple but everything we needed. Great views, good local walks, easy access to range of beaches. Good communication with owner and agency to organise stay.

Cosy, well equipped cottage with a lovely view. Our elderly parents loved that they didn't have to go anywhere to enjoy the beach and they could get out for easy walks. With amenities just a few minutes drive away and local to wildlife viewing options this worked well for us. None of us were keen to leave.

From outside the cottage looks small but it isn't. We did move some of the furniture around to make it more cosier and also let the radiators do their job easier.... put it all back before leaving. The beds are comfy but we did find that early mornings are no good for us, maybe blinds also in the bedrooms for light sleepers. The kitchen is well equipped. The TV is a bit small and half of the channels we get at home are missing due to the TV mast not being commercial. We were ok as have many TV apps on our laptop We had a very relaxing stay and hope to be booking again. A trip to Irving's bakery shop on the industrial estate is a must !!

Cottage was clean cosy and comfortable. It is about 15 mins drive to castle douglas. Owners live next door so easy to contact with minor issues. We were familiar with local area as visited frequently before.

This is an absolutely delightful property in an amazing location, with unbeatable views. It is well furnished and comfortable and has a great garden with abundant furniture and is situated in truly beautiful countryside and a charming village, with two acceptable pubs.There is a lovely circular walk to the equally pretty village of Rockliffe from which you can swim and in the nearby town of Castle Douglas there are very good food shops and a first class restaurants, Mr Pooks. We will definitely return.

The Old Sunday School was beautifully clean and had everything we needed and more. The beds were comfortable and we slept extremely well (even in the heatwave). The welcome pack was so thoughtful and delicious.
