Beautiful quiet setting but loved hearing the sheep. Cottage well equipped and well thought out. Lovely to chat with the owners Sue & Graham about the farm and the area. We chose this location so that we could visit lots of places in Dumfries & Galloway. Gatehouse of Fleet is very convenient with the local Spar and places to eat. Good walk at Wigtown and Clint’s of Dromore in-by walk. Would love to return.
