The Cottage is worth visiting. It is immaculate and the host Mary and her husband are lovely people. Enjoyed the freshly baked shortbread with a cup of tea on arrival.

We had a super week at The Cottage at the end of April. The weather was incredible so we were able to make good use of the outdoor furniture in the beautiful garden. The house is large and very comfortable and the wonderful "library" was an unexpected bonus. Everything we needed was provided and we very much appreciated the home made shortbread and fresh flowers. John and Mary were very friendly and welcoming and although they live next door, The Cottage feels surprisingly private. We loved living on the farm surrounded by a variety of animals. There's plenty to do in the area and we were lucky enough to catch the first night concert of the Girvan Traditional Folk Festival. We really enjoyed our stay and would have no hesitation in returning to The Cottage. Many thanks, N
