The front bedroom is bigger and lighter, and could perhaps be made the main bedroom? Otherwise, facilities are excellent. Gatehouse of Fleet is a lovely place to stay. Lots of nearby walks for the dogs, special mentions for Iron Brew for breakfast, and yummy cakes, and the Masonic Arms for a teatime drink and some delicious food. Both very dog friendly, canât wait to return.

Very warm, cosy and comfortable. Great position with the town, very central. Needed to contact the owner because I locked myself out

GroÃer, gemütlicher Wohn-Ess-Bereich, Küche angrenzend. Küche ist ausreichend ausgestattet, obwohl wir ein Schneidbrett und einen groÃen Topf vermisst haben. Die beiden Schlafzimmer verfügen über gute Betten und zweckmäÃige Wandschränke. Das Bad ist ein bisschen spartanisch, ohne eine Steckdose, Licht am Spiegel und Handtuchhalter, aber man kommt klar. Sehr angenehm der Kontakt zu den Eigentümern, als wir eine Einweisung für die Bedienung der Heizung benötigten. Im Gegensatz dazu die Agentur Sykes Holiday Cottages: Mehrfache Anfragen aufgrund einer notwendigen Ãnderung unserer Buchungen blieben unbeantwortet - komplett ohne Reaktion!
