What a lovely apartment. It has everything you need. You don’t need to bring anything just food if you want to cook. The Indian restaurant and the cafes all cater for everyone if you choose to eat out. A nice town with a couple of cosy pubs a stones throw from the apartment and lots of history in the area with good walks along the coastal path. The views from the window are fab and you can see over to Dumfries. It was very cold when we visited and it snowed over on all the hills we could see from the window. It was lovely to come back to a cosy warm flat after being out in freezing weather. Loved our stay. Definitely will be back. 👍
