  We had a wonderful post Christmas break at Ptarmigan Cottage.

  The village of Garlieston is exceptionally beautiful, with lovely coastal paths and a cosy pub within five minutes walk of the cottage. The property has great views of the sea from both sides. We also got out to Whithorn and the Isle of Whithorn which are both worth a visit - and to Scotland's booktown Wigtown, full of second hand book shops and an excellent antique shop. Inside the cottage is immaculately fitted out, warm and stylish. There was a welcome bottle of wine awaiting us, as well as chocolates and all the store cupboard condiments you might need. Phil our host was super friendly, flexible about arrival and departure times, and instantly posted on a pair of shoes I had left behind. We can't wait to come again.

  The location could not be bettered. However, the cottage, although well-equipped, had a musty smell which never quite left. The downstairs bed was so uncomfortable that I had to move into a twin room upstairs. The general decoration needs renewing as there were many water marks on the ceilings and walls. It seemed a little run down since we visited 9 years ago. Our main issue was the wifi, or lack of it, which also affected the television. The very poor signal, (often no signal at all) should be mentioned in the cottage description. On the plus side, the wood burner was the best we've come across in over 40 years of self-catering in Scotland.

  The cottage is on a private estate and has no road traffic so its peaceful and private. Although it could do with a bit of decorative updating it was fully equipped with the added warmth of a woodburner and a plentiful supply of logs.The cottage is spacious and was a pleasure to return to. The little green at the front has rural views and a bench from which to enjoy them. A charming and characterful place. Whithorn is an unspoilt and uncrowded haven.

  We all enjoyed our stay in this beautiful property.

  It was extremely well furnished and very well equipped. I can't think of anything that Phil and Alan had not considered. There was a lovely 'Welcome Pack'. Wine, tea, coffee. biscuits and Milk in the fridge. Our dog was well catered for too. We had brought our own dog beds etc., but there were extra blankets and dog bowls in a cupboard. Much appreciated. Would highly recommend.

  Great location in a small village.

  overlooking a small harbour. Pub and cafe in the village. Immaculately presented townhouse with all facilities. New property so water, heating, beds etc all first rate. Some nice furnishings and fitting including nice photographs on the wall. A good base for exploring the local area or just walks and sitting out from the house.
