    Serendipity is an amazingly well renovated town house in the middle of Kirkcudbright, with access to all the delights that wonderful town holds. Ian and Louise have created and maintain to the highest standards, a self catering home from home which is spotlessly clean, exceedingly well equipped, stylish, comfortable and a delight to stay in. We already plan to return!

    Beautiful, spotlessly clean and extremely well appointed property in a great location. The kitchen had everything you could possibly need. When we had an issue with the heating the host responded and sorted it out immediately. We would definitely book this property again.

    Lovely Central Home

    The shower in the main toilet (middle) didn't get hot enough. The pressure wasn't great either. This was really disappointing as either we all had to use the upstairs shower or some of us just had to cope with warmish water. Not ideal when there's 4-6 of you trying to get ready. The bottom left cooker hob wasn't working at all, which is not ideal if you are cooking a big meal or big morning fry-up. The batteries in the TV remote were done and no spare AAA to find around the house.

    House was spotless clean and fully equipped with all essentials, beds were very comfortable, good location centrally in town and just a short walk to shops. It had all the little extra things that were a lovely touch; tissues in every room, airfresheners in the toilets, games and puzzles and even a box of yarn. Loved these things.

    Really nothing.

    Absolutely fabulous house. Genuinely the best I have ever stayed in. We came as usual, our child and grandparents. The setup worked really well for us with all of us in different rooms. We never felt on top of each other. In good weather we loved the rear garden. The Serendipity was immaculate, every facility we could have needed. The location in the town centre is just perfect and ideal for nearby restaurants and festivities in the town. Close to the swimming pool and playground as well. For a small town, Kircudbright really does well in this regard which keeps us coming back. We used to camp but with the little ones now, I expect we will return again on our next visit to Galloway.

    There was nothing to dislike.Everything was lovely.my mum has mobility issues and would have loved an armchair and a small TV in the dining area but that is just a suggestion not a negative.

    With 3 generations in one house we had the space to find our own corners when we needed to and wonderful social spaces to get together.we loved the patio garden and access from the kitchen.The beds and bedding were fantastic and all the furnishings felt comfortable.

    The hob, tricky at times to know what pan works with each ring, prehaps labelling the pans would help..

Lovely courtyard to sit in when sunny and covered area suitable for bikes. Appreciated the milk and biscuits. Family games, books, maps etc. came in handy too.

    That we had to leave! and I could only bring home 12 Scotch Pies!

    Serendipty:the occurrence and development of events by chance in a happy or beneficial way according to the dictionary and we couldnt agree more here! We were very happy on chancing upon this lovely home -the style and lay out of the house was perfect for two "rather weary" couples working too bleddy hard!-batteries totally recharged after 3 lovely days here-a quiet street but close to all that this town has to offer-parking a doddle We walked thorugh the door and fell in love with the place straight away Kirkcubright is a smashing little town with a range of shops/cafes/walks/attractions for everyone -would also recommend "Gather at Laggan" as the place to eat locally with amazing views over the Bay We shall return!
