Great property. Thoroughly recommended.
This is a great property, with a great host. Everything is as described and you can book with confidence. The location is perfect, with easy access to the best Galloway has on offer. It was great to look across the sea to Northern Ireland from the dining table and patio. Very spacious and spotlessly clean.

Beautiful property
Beautiful well maintained big house. We had 5 children with us for 2weeks age range 3-17yrs. The kids loved having their own livingroom which was a bonus for us. Lovely surroundings and lovely drives to beech, town etc.

Amazing property and location
Great property, in a fab location, lots of walks nearby just a short drive. Woods to the rear of the property, ideal if you have dogs. Found some great places to eat not to far away, Morrisons delivers to the property. Ideal for multi generational or multiple families! We loved the peace and quiet, along with seeing deer in the garden!

Winter break
The property was absolutely ideal and was certainly put through its paces with a 1-yr old and a 93 yr-old spanning the years and requirements for a true holiday break. Great having two living room spaces and excellent sized and well-equipped kitchen. Elspeth was extremely helpful and it was reassuring to know she was contactable if necesary.
