  This is an excellent holiday cottage which is really well equipped.

  It works really well for a couple or small family. It has excellent storage and has been really well thought out. The sofa bed in the lounge is very comfortable and easy to use. The owner had left lots of nice touches like wine, shortbread and fresh flowers. The owner is nearby and provides a lovely welcome and has lots of useful local information. The house is very central. Directly across the road is a lovely café and shop behind which is the local spar. Although no garden there is green space at the river, woodland walks and the local park are only a couple of minutes walk away. If you are here with kids then the Cream of Galloway outdoor play centre, Laggan Outdoor Centre and a range of pretty beaches are all within a short drive. We had a brilliant week and would definitely book again.

  A fantastic location for a week's break exploring Dumfries and Galloway.

  Very comfortable accommodation in which, everything worked. Good WiFi, smartTV, cooker, fridge, freezer, microwave, and well equipped kitchen. Right I'm the centre of Gatehiuse of Fleet, minutes walk from supermarket, shops, cafes, Mill, pubs and restaurants. Once inside, very quiet and comfortable location No allocated parking spot or garden, but even over a busy Easter weekend, we never had a problem parking on the street and there is a free car park opposite. There are parks and woodlands literally on the doorstep, so we did not miss a garden at all. Fantastic longer walks from from front door, so you needn't use the car at all if you don't want to go further afield. Very warm welcome and easy communication with the owner. Definitely recommended.

  We have stayed here before, we like the house and it's location, being convenient for the shops, eateries, and the many walks in the area. The house could do with a bit of updating, but it's comfortable and clean. The only issue we had was access to the back garden. There are no steps or proper path to the main garden, only an earth bank with an uneven grass walkway which I struggled with. The access was also a bit overgrown so we had to push back brambles etc to get through. For anyone who is fit and sure footed it's ok, but I am not so good on my feet because of arthritis in my knees and hips. I felt the need to highlight this are because I'm probably not the only one who will find this an issue.

  This was a comfortable, not ‘luxury’ house, just outside Gatehouse. We could close the gates (bit old and shaky) and the area around the house was secure for our dog. Wifi reception was poor to non-existent, which was a minus point from us, as it was advertised (should have asked about signal strength). Kitchen has all necessary cutlery/crockery etc but make sure you arrive with tea/coffee and milk as nothing like that is left in cupboards. Nice views, saw red kites, buzzards, brown hare and rabbits (and some lovely ponies) in field opposite. Comfortable living area and beds. Nice shower rooms but bath towels very rough.

  The property was very well equipped and very comfortable.

  The owners were very kind and helpful and any problems we had were dealt with very promptly and efficiently and they made it clear that we could contact them anytime if there were any further issues. We very much appreciated the welcome bottle of wine and biscuits on our arrival. Very well equipped cottage and everything has been thought about for a comfortable and relaxing stay.. No complaints but only one bit of advice would be to have easy instructions on view for working the television, heating and cooker..
