Dog Friendly Kirkcudbright Holiday Cottages

What our customers say about their holidays

  The description of the property on the website is accurate so we got what we hoped for.

  The cottage is spacious, really well equipped with good quality fixtures and fittings. The views from the sun room and the garden area over the road are spectacular whatever the weather. The review asks for our Sykes experience but that's not the same thing as our experience of the cottage. The latter was all positive and we appreciated the efforts of the owners to provide us with a great holiday base. There doesn't seem to be anywhere else to record that Sykes sends too many emails - too many requests for reviews of a holiday yet to be taken, too many suggestions for new bookings when the current one hadn't happened. I asked for one piece of assistance before the holiday and got what I needed because the query was referred to the owners. Sykes were fine and if you have a property that suits me I might use you again but I will be blocking your too frequent emails. I don't have a problem with my comments being published but I do not want anything I have said to appear to be detrimental to the cottage owners - they did everything required to meet our expectations.

  1. I'm a Ms not Mr.

  (no big deal !) 2. I'm actually a Native of Kirkcudbright and this is my first time "home" 3. I'm glad I choose Fish House for my trip, this is really a marvelous cottage that surprise us, it's more than expected vs the photo we seen at the website.

  We found the house clean and comfortable.

  Although fairly small it was perfect for the two of us with a small dog. There was everything that we needed, was very well equipped. It might be helpful for others to know that you need to squeeze the buttons either side of the key lock, once you put the code in, as it took us a little while to figure out. The only thing we had a bit of trouble with was the lack of grey bin for our rubbish, there didn't seem to be one. The recycling bins were outside the door, and the grey one was supposed to be across the road with the house name on, but we couldn't find it. We loved our stay, and enjoyed all kirkcudbright had to offer. We went out to the Dhoon beach every morning to walk the dog, she loved it. Thoroughly relaxing holiday.

  Arakhova was comfortable for our family group. We chose it because it was easy walking distance to the town and to the local campsite where other family members were staying. The location worked well for us as we could also do some lovely walks directly from the house. There were 8 of us staying, all adults so for some people the fact that the second bathroom was one of the en-suites might be an issue. The curtains/blinds in the downstairs double let the light in so for a light sleeper I would recommend eye shades (there's a streetlight outside that window). The house felt spacious and we enjoyed the games that were there. Great to have the washing machine and dryer after a couple of the walks. Thank you

  Unbelievable.

  Photos available. Pan for omelet worn to rust so unable to cook there. Bedroom, we found and suffered from insects in the bed spent a fortune on sprays to kill them each day.Stayed away from cottage 8/10 hours a day Boiler next to bed. Bathroom had to flush loo three times on average to flush loo paper and numerous for bowel movement Cord for light previously repaired snapped on us. Junk in cupboards was ridiculous. No fire extinguisher.. Freezing cold even with fire on in a hot week. Can we really trust Sykes again cos there were more faults to mention all here We did report to Sykes over 2 weeks ago but after initial response weve heard no more from Sykes
