Stayed 14 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Kath M. 13 Jun 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy This is a beautiful and luxurious property. We really enjoyed our stay here. We are three middle aged women (plus 2 elderly cats) and it was perfect for us with an en-suite bathroom each plus an enclosed utility room for the cats.The estate is beautiful with lovely walks and is close to Castle Douglas, Kirkcudbright and Gatehouse of Fleet, all of which are within a 20 minute drive. We visited Threave, Cally gardens and Broughton house as well as the Red Kite experience and some local alpacas! The walks around the estate were lovely (though bring your midge spray!). We had an amazing week here and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it. ##### Kath M. Stayed 7 nights in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### sara b. 6 Sept 2025 ##### sara b.
