  Fiona made us feel so welcome with simple little touches, like the couple of Xmas presents for us on arrival.

  The cottage has everything you could possibly need by way of facilities. The pub two doors down is quiet and very welcoming. They welcomed our two well behaved Jack Russell terriers. The cottage is well located to get to either Glasgow or Edinburgh and is a great base to explore both. Although you feel quite remote, we were surprised that there were over 300 restaurants on Just Eat, should we have wanted to order any sort of cuisine! But the kitchen is superbly equiped and we had our evening meals in. Carluke and Lanark are only 15 minutes away, both have good supermarkets to cater for every taste. The bed is very comfy and the bed linen is fresh and clean. The garden is spacious and I am sure would be lovely to sit out in when it is a bit warmer. The central heating is easy to operate and the cottage is well insulated, so we were like toast in the evenings. The shower is easy to use and plenty of hot water. This was a lovely little holiday for me and my partner and we will definitely be back, if available, in the future.

  We had a fantastic time at Sky Blue Cottage.

  Over the years we've been on several holidays around the UK in cottages and by far this was the best that we've been too. The facilities were brilliant and Mrs Orr couldn't have been nicer or more helpful. You are in a quiet place, people were friendly and even though you think you're in the middle of nowhere, you're never really too far away from Glasgow/Edinburgh, all the towns in between and several Country Parks are nearby too! Our dog loved the wood walk, which is literally a few minutes walk from the cottage. We saw deer on the dog walk and could hear a Woodpecker rattling away every morning as we walked through the wood! The back garden was secure for our dog, a Jack Russell, and he loved running around in it. We without hesitation would recommend this cottage to anyone that was looking for a relaxing break.

  We had a lovely stay at Dershel Lodge in Southerness.

  The lodge was like a home from home, fully equipped with everything you require to enjoy your stay. We especially enjoyed the large TV with access to Netflix, Prime ect as well as the fact there was a washing machine. The lodge itself is beautifuly decorated down to the finest detail, even the room diffusers smell amazing! There is also lots of storage space and a walk in wardrobe in the master bedroom. The kitchen was great to cook in, very spacious with a big centre island. We have tried a lot of different accommodation on the park and this has by far surpassed them all. Best of all was the price, which is affordable for families on a budget. The process of booking was straightforward and friendly service from start to finish! Thoroughly enjoyed and will definitely be back, wouldn't go anywhere else now.

  This was our second stay at Dershel and it didn't disappoint.

  We love the location and outlook of the lodge. Very comfortable for our needs. Everything was as we remembered and loved. A couple of observations to note, which didn't spoil our stay but feel you need to know. The tin opener needs replaced, as it doesn't work and there were no baking trays to cook food. Luckily I did take my own baking tray! Also the kitchen lights over the island could do with a wipe. Sadly the weather was rubbish for two days, but we enjoyed the range of films available on the TV and enjoyed the lodge. Also for future guests, you can pay to use the swimming pool, without having to buy passes. Each swimming session is £5 per person, under 5s are free. We were sad to leave and will be back next year

  Lovely property, set in a gorgeous location; peaceful and quiet with wonderful surrounding scenery.

  Just a few small things to mention... Cleaning wasn't top notice in the property; more attention to detail is needed. Also was very low on cleaning products, had to purpose our own. With tin opener that didn't work either and a grab rail to help aid you getting in and the bath would have helped. But none of this spoiled our holiday... It was an excellent holiday, and would definitely recommend the historic (Robert Burns) walk around Dumfries. And, further afield the gorgeous scenery views around Wanlockhead where you learn/tour the history around the lead miners. (Wanlockhead Mining Museum) The Solway Coast line is almost never ending with spectacular views and so much preserved history.
