We had a thoroughly enjoyable stay at Borgan cottage.
It was very comfortable and the layout of the house well suited the large group that we were. It is in quite a remote location but we knew that before booking and there are some lovely forestry walks/towns to visit a relatively short drive away. We all had a great time- thank you! The only things Iâd suggest in terms of improvements/amendments to the listing are related to accessibility/cleanliness. The stairs to the top floor are steep, quite slippy and tricky for the elderly people in our group to navigate- they would have struggled if theyâd had to sleep upstairs. It was also quite difficult for our 2 year old to manage them. The angled roof in the bathroom upstairs is also problematic in terms of usability for older people- I wonder if it might be worth noting that on the listing, so that larger bookings are able to assess the suitability of the house for their groups? In terms of cleanliness, the kitchen, bedrooms and downstairs bathroom were spotless, which was fantastic. Unfortunately, the group before us must have had a/multiple dogs and the living room was covered in dog hair. It was all over the sofas, rugs and floors. Our clothes were covered in dog hair every day. We even found a hoover upstairs and hoovered everywhere ourselves to try and remove it all. Finally, there is an issue with some mould/damp in the upstairs bathroom. There were very visible lines of brown water running down the ceiling in that room, that were there from when we arrived. It would be good to have that sorted. Overall, however, we really did have a brilliant stay. The beds were all very comfortable and the kitchen well stocked. We loved watching the birds at all the bird feeders in the garden. I would strongly recommend the house to others wanting to stay in that area. If it was perfectly clean, we would have given it 5 stars.

We really liked the cottage's location and the surrounding area.
The cottage is a good base to explore from, with many attractions & things to do being within close proximity or not too far of a journey to get to. We also enjoyed seeing all the different types of wildlife in the garden, fields & surrounding woodland. This was definitely a highlight. However, our stay was sadly affected by a few things. For example, there were issues with cleanliness. On arriving, there were dog hairs all over the living room furniture and in one of the downstairs bedrooms, with the smell from the bedroom being particularly bad. So we had to hoover the furniture & use air fresheners to try & remove the smell. We accept this cottage allows dogs, but this still isn't something we should have to do. There were also quite a few cobwebs around the house which we had to hoover up, which had been there for a long time as they were quite thick. Other issues besides this were that the velux windows in the top bedroom had holes in the surrounds and leak when it rains. The additional fridge in the outbuilding had lots of dead flies in it, even though the door was closed? A lot of the pans in the kitchen are way past their best & could do with replacing. However, the worst point is regarding the midge infestation in the top floor of the house, which led to my wife & I having to sleep in the living room. The midges were everywhere and we had no windows open at all. We had lots of bites & they just kept appearing. It was awful, very stressful and soured the whole stay. We accept midges outside as we have been to Scotland quite a few times, but we shouldn't have this issue inside the cottage.

Due to covid not the family holiday we had planned but the cottage was superb although a little large for our much condensed party Everything worked really well and there was nothing missing from the inventory in fact lots of extras.
The nights were quite chilly but the cottage was really well insulated and felt really cosy with its impressive central heating system. It was great lighting the wood burner at night which made the lounge really homely. All fixtures and fittings are of a high quality and the instructions left by Clare, the owner were really easy to understand and gave us all the info we needed. The situation of he cottage is quite remote but there are lots of lovely walks right on the door step and everything else you need can be found in Newton Stewart about 7 miles away. Its also worth trying the local pub/hotel in Bargrennan "House o'Hill" which has good bear and fabulous food. Great week we will be back in the spring hopefully with all the family

We had an amazing week at Borgan cottage, a lovely quiet retreat.
The cottage has everything you need, a seriously well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and sofas. Watching the wildlife was an added bonus and the house martins are mesmerising. Yes some parts of the house could do with an update but it makes it quirky and lovable. Great location for exploring the Galloway forest and beaches a little further away. We loved the Galloway smokehouse had some delicious meals. After reading some of the reviews I was a little apprehensive about some of the comments but we didn't need to worry just remember you are staying in a wooded location with peace and tranquility, flies and birds will visit! Thank you for a great week and we will be back.

Lovely week at Borgan Cottage.
Great property. We travelled as two families 4 adults and 4 children and it worked really well. Plenty of space around the house for children to run about and ride bikes etc. Outbuilding great for bikes, beach stuff storage & an extra washer, dryer and fridge in there...very useful !! Great location for biking, nice runs from the house and forest walks....remember the Smidge for the midges.....! Must visit Glentrool & Killoughtree for biking. Must see beaches, Mossylands beautiful, Kippford great for crabs, Rockcliffe super too. Remember plenty of pound coins for carparks as a lot of them don't do cards. We will be back !
