A lovely spacious cottage and a great base for exploring . Large garden which was great for our dogs . The hosts were fantastic and couldn’t do enough to make you feel welcome and help if required . OnlyOne minor thing was the water pressure in the shower . That said would absolutely recommend staying here

Very clean and tidy, nice decor, kitchen utensils and crockery were excellent. It is always good to visit somewhere that provides good quality. Most cottage holidays seem to supply the cheapest mix match of cutlery.However a pair of kitchen scissors would be useful.We declined the personal welcome with Martina as our dog is nervous, but she was at hand if we needed anything.Both my husband and I have slight mobility issues and always travel with a raised toilet seat, for obvious reasons. However the only toilet is a more modern square shape, the seat would not fit. A grab handle in the bathroom would have been ideal, just a thought.Our dog loved the garden, but the archway towards the bottom of the garden was overgrown making it inaccessible for us.Recommend The Harbour Inn at Garlieston and St Ninians Hall and Tea Rooms at Isle of Withorn, excellent quality and reasonable price.Overall a pleasant stay, but for us not one to return to
