We have stayed in this house many times and it suits our needs.it is quite old fashioned with a small tv and no wifi so I’m not sure younger people would be happy there.we used to take other members of our family occasionally but with the ridiculous new rules they can’t use the attic room now .It is fine for an older couple like us.The location is great and Gatehouse is a lovely place with plenty of walks and beaches.

No4 is idealy placed for all amenities in Gatehouse. The property although a bit dated is comfortable and has everything you need. I felt the crockery could do with replacing particularly the mugs and glasses. I also felt it could have done with a deep clean. There was soot coming down the chimney and some neglected corners.
