Fleetbank is a well-appointed cottage in Castle Douglas, praised for its comfort, including cosy beds and a hot tub. It's pet-friendly and beautifully decorated, offering a relaxing break with family-friendly amenities. The location is convenient, close to parks, shops, and walks. While some minor maintenance issues are noted, the property generally exceeds expectations with its cleanliness and thoughtful touches.
The property is described as 'beautifully clean', indicating a high standard of cleanliness. One mention of a stain in a bedroom suggests a slight deduction, but overall, the cleanliness is highly regarded.
The cottage's location is appreciated for its proximity to parks, shops, and scenic walks. However, parking difficulties due to nearby popular spots slightly affect the score.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the addition of a hot tub enhances the comfort level. Some suggestions for improvement in bedroom amenities are made, but overall comfort is rated highly.
The property is well-equipped, but feedback suggests room for improvement in facilities and maintenance, such as garden security for pets, curtain lining, and additional storage. The presence of a hot tub is a positive aspect.

Peaceful in its pastel colours, the small country town of Gatehouse of Fleet lies on the Solway Firth, in the midst of Dumfries & Galloway countryside, with good sandy beaches a five-minute drive away. The town was founded in the 1760s as a mill community, and today the nearby Mill on the Fleet - a visitor centre in a former bobbin mill - tells the tale of Gatehouse’s cotton-spinning days. Today, there are several shops in the town including a small supermarket, chemist, bank and Post Office, along with two book/gift shops, a kilt-making centre and two cafes. All four pubs in the town have restaurant facilities and welcome children. Castle Douglas, a 15-minute drive away, offers an extensive range of shops, Threave Gardens and boating on Carlingwark Loch.
