Reviewer Type: Extended Group

Travel Purpose: leisure

Positive: I contacted the owners via Social media. They responded quickly, communication was great and they offered me a discount plus, upon discussing circumstances, some extras. The price felt reasonable at discounted level. The cottage itself was easy to find, it's only a few miles outside of Dumfries but once you get there, it feels very remote. The approach road is a bit bumpy but this is the countryside charm. It is also very quiet and is only a few minutes' drive from the bigger Dumfries roads. You are surrounded by sheep, fields and open views. The location is simply stunning and if you want peace - you will find at an exceptional level here. The quietness, green views, no car noise, no light polution, just fresh air smells will provide your soul with much needed peace if you come from a busier neighbourhood. The internal space has been modernised to a decent level, it was quite clean and had no lingering smells (I am incredibly sensitive to smells and this property had an exceptional lack of them.). The accommodation consists of three large bedrooms, cosy lounge, modern kitchen, shower room and small conservatory. The garden is a fabulous size, mostly laid to lawn on two levels, and fully enclosed so safe and secure for children and smaller dogs (the fence is about 150cm so jumpers may be able to escape). We all (three humans and two dogs) thoroughly enjoyed the garden. We were incredibly lucky with the weather so managed to spend a good few hours outside. There is plenty of parking for several cars on the gravel drive on the side of the cottage. The beds were surprisingly comfy, bedding and towels very clean and fresh. The kitchen was quite modern, featured a ceramic hob, small fridge with freezer, kettle and other bits you may need. We didn't cook.

Negative: The cottage water is from their own source, it has a distinct taste and smell and there are warnings regarding Legionella in the owner provided booklets.

Summary: Incredible peace, beautiful location, lovely owners
