Guests enjoyed the peaceful setting, proximity to nature, and the views. Ideal for relaxing getaways and walking enthusiasts, the cottage offers a comfortable stay with a homely feel.

The location is highly praised for its beauty and tranquillity, with easy access to woods, hill walks, and nearby attractions. The main road's proximity was a concern for some, but overall, the location was considered excellent.
Most guests found the cottage warm, cosy, and comfortable, with a well-equipped kitchen and pleasant gardens. Some noted it might be a bit small for four adults, but for smaller groups, it was very satisfactory.
Facilities were generally good, with a well-equipped kitchen and comfortable furnishings. Some guests mentioned minor issues with the bath flow and a cluttered feeling, but the unique features of the cottage compensated for these points.

The picturesque seaside villages of Rockcliffe and Kippford are both within a 15 minute drive of the property, with the larger towns of Dalbeattie and Dumfries within a 40 minute drive.
Dalbeattie Forest is within 5 minute drive away with a stage of the Forestry Commission 7Stanes Mountain Bike Trail, with others a little further afield at Mabie Forest, Dumfries and Kirroughtree at Newton Stewart. The cottage is an ideal base for exploring the Solway Coast with rspb Mersehead nearby and WWT Caerlaverock within a short drive. NTS Threave Gardens and Estate at Castle Douglas and NTS Broughton House in Kirkcudbright are both well worth a visit, as is Historic Scotland's Threave Castle.
