Me and my partner stayed here for 3 nights. We only made it out to the shop, the rest of the time was spent either in the hot tub or chilling out on the couch. It was perfect! The only issue we found was the hot tub would get a little too hot at times without ways to control the heat, however this didn’t change our view on the break we had at all! Definitely would recommend☺️

Second visit here and we love it. The owner, Tanya, is very helpful and responds quickly when needed. She has been excellent, on both occasions, with helping me set up some extra surprises for my wife. The hot tub is our absolute favourite and we spend most of our days relaxing in there. The cottage has everything you need. It’s in a great location only a few minutes drive from Dumfries and the farm shop just a walk away is wonderful to visit and pick up some extras. Cannot wait until our next visit, next January!

Lovely cottage for a couple, was close to local amenities. The farm shop which was just a short walk was great to have food. The Dogs loved the enclosed garden as well as the log burner. Was lovely to relax in the hot tub. Only negative I would say is the comfort of the seating in the living area.
