Lovely house, great stay

I loved this house, it was bright, roomy and really lovely to stay in. The location was great, there’s some building work nearby but that didn’t affect us at all. It has beautiful views and is really close to Kippford to walk to. I wouldn’t change anything

Lovely house

We loved the house and the area. The house was good for my daughter who is a wheelchair user. It would have been perfect if there hadnt been a drawer below the sink. The beds were comfortable too.

Fantastic house

Family had a great time. Big house with separate sleeping areas which was good. Couldn't hear the kids upstairs in the morning. Good secure garden for kids and dogs. Lovely walks and lots to see and do in the area. Would definitely recommend.
