We really enjoyed our weeks holiday here and the location was fabulous for exploring the Galloway forest and further afield. Carol the owner was very welcoming and upon arrival had upgraded us to a larger cottage FOC, which was a very pleasant surprise. Large grounds for the dog to run about on (but kept on a long extension lead as per house rules..rightly so) and lovely views from the Bothy (cottage we were upgraded to) over the river Cree. Would 100% stay there again if we came back to the area in the future.

Very friendly.

Very friendly. Bed very comfortable. Location excellent as were local amenities. Good value for money. My only issues were equipment and cleanliness. Bed linen clean and bathroom clean but general cleanliness around internal bins and windows needed attention. Would have like some cleaning equipment other than hoover. Felt the place was a bit tired and needed a thorough clean and update. Enjoyed myself and would stay again definitely, even without the clean and update.

Great little cottage - only problem is that it is not good for people with mobility issues.

Great little cottage - only problem is that it is not good for people with mobility issues. Stairs up to bedrooms and toilet down stairs makes it hard when you have to go up and down several times a day/night. Facilities were great, but would have been nice to have hand soap- most people bring shower gel- shampoo, but travellers expect soap.
