The property's conversion from a church to a holiday rental adds character, and the town's offerings are within easy walking distance. While some maintenance issues are noted, the overall experience is positive, with the property's potential highlighted.
The property is mostly well-kept, with several reviews mentioning it being clean and tidy. However, there are isolated reports of finding dirty cloths and a few maintenance issues, which slightly detract from the overall cleanliness score.
The location is highly praised for its convenience and the ability to explore Moffat on foot. The uniqueness and proximity to local attractions contribute to a high location score.
Comfort is generally well-regarded, with mentions of comfortable beds and a cosy atmosphere. Some concerns about heating issues and a lack of clear window views are noted, but these do not significantly impact the overall comfort for most guests.
Facilities are appreciated for their modernity and quality, but several reviews cite maintenance problems such as boiler issues, non-working lights, and missing kitchen items. These recurring issues suggest room for improvement in facilities and maintenance.
There is insufficient information regarding the presence of gifts or special touches that would indicate thoughtfulness. Therefore, a score cannot be provided for this category.

It's a fabulous apartment for 2 couples. The master bedroom is actually a huge suite. The location is great too - only a few minutes stroll from the shops and with easy access to the trail to the woods. The only very minor issues were that some of the lamps had no bulbs in them particularly in the smaller bedroom and there were only 4 forks in the cutlery drawer - lots of spoons and knives though!

It is a beautiful property that is kept to a high standard. It is fully equipped with everything you need and perfect for a relaxing break. You can park right outside the property which is handy. It is close to some stunning scenic walks and close to the beach as well. Moffat town has everything you need, shops, restaurants, cafes and takeaways within a 5 minute walk. Missing the penthouse already, will be recommending to my friends and family. Would love to return soon.

Only one bedroom was en suite not as advertised although this was not an issue for us. Correspondence with owner was good. Sakes send too many emails. Reference in emails to "usually" such as the owners usually ask you to.... As a guest I need to know what is required not what may be required. I have asked for a vat receipt twice but sykes have yet to supply this. They refered me to the owner for this. The owner is not who I payed so sykes must issue receipts.
