overall lovely cottage, lovely surroundings but unfortunately the beds were soooo uncomfortable!!! didn't have a great night sleep all weekend, neither did the people we went with. couldn't turn the heating down? there was no one to greet you, no one to talk to if something was wrong. a shame as it wasn't cheap.

A nice cottage in a lovely location with modern furnishings and open plan layout. Great access to Kirroughtree Forest mountain bike centre, the coast and local towns including Newton Stewart, Wigtown and Gatehouse of Fleet. The facilities were good but a little basic - the wifi didn't work at all and the beds and sofas were not as comfortable as we are used to. A little upgrading is all that is needed.

The cottage is very well presented and clean in lovely woodland surroundings. It was advertised as supplied with wi-fi but there was no Internet connection and when we advised the owners they responded that this had been an ongoing problem and it could not be fixed during our stay. This was disappointing and inconvenient as we needed Internet access during our stay. Also, we felt the two settees were not very comfortable for relaxing in.
