Wonderful cottage

The cottage was amazing and very well equipped, spotlessly clean and modern but very comfortable, with a very welcome selection of treats waiting for us. We know the area well so it was the perfect location for us to do a bit more discovering of Dumfries and Galloway. Would certainly recommend the cottage and we hope to get there again.

Spacious welcoming cottage

The property is much more spacious than described and is well appointed for an extended stay. The fixtures and fittings are of good quality and there is everything provided that you could need.It is located in a very quiet area, you do need transport to move around but local amenities are only a short drive away. Stunning area with lots to see.

Wonderful

Lovely cottage, very clean and comfortable, with everything you need. Friendly owners who left some absolutely delicious treats for us. Did some walks in the area with the dog, amazing scenery and a visit to the nearby ice cream farm finished it very nicely. We loved Kirkcudbright and also called at Castle Douglas on the way home, both small towns with lots of individual shops.

Highly recommend Swallows

Simply one of the best cottages we have stayed in. Spotlessly clean. High quality furnishings including THE most comfortable bed!! Everything you might need has been provided. The lovely hosts who live in main house are unobtrusive but there if you need them. Very generous welcome pack. Dogs made very welcome. Lovely countryside with Brighouse Bay not too far away for beach walks.
