    Lovely location with all home comforts. Really comfortable beds and the log burner in the lounge was a fantastic as we stayed in February. The hosts were really helpful and even left us some home made brownies and hand picked flowers.

    The cottage had a great outlook over the fields and a lovely enclosed garden. The cottage had everthing we needed for our weeks stay and there was a couple of beaches nearby to visit.

    The cottage was well equipped for a family break, allowing us to prepare meals easily and wash muddy toddler clothes! It was comfy and cosy. There was a beautiful beach near by (Rigg Batmy) which kept the little one entertained and lots to do within a short driving distance. Including the Galloway dark sky park, deer range and st ninian’s cave. Garlieston is walkable or a super short drive and the hive cafe was excellent, including amazing cakes and toys and books to entertain our little one. The Harbour inn was also great.

    Could do with a couple of blankets available for those chilly nights, without having to put the heating on. (We may not have found them if there were any) There was a couple of minor cosmetics that need to be addressed. A couple of places that had leaks at some point, and a crack in the ceiling that looked to be a worry. I don't think they were old issues, and quite possibly in the stages of getting looked at. Nothing that deterred us from the cottage though. The red info folder probably needs looking at, expanding/updating in regards to what amenities are available in the local area.

    Garden and views were amazing, Peacefully quiet. Kitchen fully loaded with everything you could need. Cake on the table and milk in the fridge was a very welcome sight. And an icepack frozen in the freezer was a blessing. Sofas were very comfortable. Very clean and tidy. Fantastic to have both a shower and a bathtub. Lovely garden which the kids enjoyed climbing the tree. It also had one of the best picnic tables I've ever sat on. Nice sized rooms with plenty of storage for unpacking.

    a very minor point, perhaps the cottage could have had a wee bit more info on, or pictures of, the old railway.

    The location was perfect. So easy to explore Wigtownshire, which is really a forgotten yet beautiful part of Scotland. Great fun staying in an old station.

    Just a small point, maybe a hand rail in the shower could be installed.

    The cottage was superb. Had everything we needed. Beds were comfortable too. Lovely view from living room and so peaceful. We were out every day as weather was great. Hoping to go back next year.

    We found the cottage to be a little bit remote and would have preferred to be a bit closer to amenities.

    We had a wonderful stay. The accommodation was super and the location was very peaceful and relaxing. Great base for exploring the nearby towns and villages.

    The cottage is perfect for a couple or family and had everything we could ask for. The sitting room has a lovely wood burner and was very cosy in the evening. The bathroom is modern and fresh and the whole place was spotlessly clean. The beds were very comfortable and the linens of great quality. The enclosed garden was perfect for our dogs and the planting around the cottage is beautiful. The immediate area is idyllic with wonderful views and we wish we could wake to that view every morning! Milk in the fridge, fresh flowers and home baked brownies were waiting for us and made us feel very welcome.
