  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.

  The cottage is fully equipped for four people, it is also very welcoming and cosy with good outside space with the best views! The peace and quiet is amazing with only the cattle, sheep and the birds outside, which we love. The sky at night is gorgeous as its a dark sky zone with very little light pollution, so we spent the nights gazing up at the stars! The owners are so lovely, and they are around if you should need anything (which we didn't). I can't fault this location either, it's such a good spot to explore the coast and the various lochs in the area. We also visited the Red Kite feeding station in Laurieston, which is worth a visit. The town of Gatehouse has a good number of places to eat, both at night and during the day and there is a well stocked Spa too if you prefer to self cater.

  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.

  The house was lovely. Warm and comfortable and tastefully decorated. It has a welcoming feel and we loved the Aga for cooking and heating. We were a large group rangeing in age from 14 to 82 and this house suited all of us. Teens loved the firepit outside whilst the older members loved the log burners indoors! The countryside surrounding the house provided lovely walks and stunning views. A couple of additions to the kitchen would be a bottle opener and a bread knife and perhaps a larger fridge or a second fridge. However this did not hinder our enjoyment in any way. A stunning house in a stunning location. Would love to go back another time

  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.
