Michael

The accommodation was outstanding with a tremendous attention to detail and quality. Would highly recommend the apartment to anyone looking for holiday break. We were happy just to stay at the apartment and take in the activity overlooking the Loch. However, you cannot visit Scotland without visiting some of the outstanding sights and scenery. We hRead moread our dog with us who was a little confused over the upside down living, but soon got the hang of it she loved the balcony views too. Hide

Trevor

The appartment was idealy situated overlooking the park and loch. The room was spacious and the bedrooms comfortable. The hot tub was ideal to relax every day.

Lovely view of the loch, good walks. Playground in front of the house but that didnt bother us at all. Lovely place and lovely people

Leanne

Lovely upside down house, amazing view of the Loch. We all loved the hot tub, the place was clean and tidy and thank you for the goody box and cake

Dennis

The cottage was clean and tidy. Bed very comfortable. nice view from the balcony . Please be aware that there is a children's play area very close to the cottage. Overall top marks.

John

The lodge needs to be seen to appreciate just how high end everything is, right down to the Denby crockery. We were very fortunate with the weather but this was the most comfortable, relaxing break we have ever had. The bedrooms and beds are excellent, the bathrooms are amazing and the whole upstairs, including the bi-fold doors and balcony are fan tastic. Wed definitely recommend the lodge to anyone.

Carol

An excellent property, everything was to a very high standard, one of the best we have stayed in.

Julie

Had a fantastic stay , very clean ,Morden massive chocolate cake , hamper and fresh flowers such thoughtful touches .

Paul

One of the best holiday homes we have stayed in. It was my wife's 60 th birthday and she really loved the home and the hot tub. Ideal for base for touring the area. Owners have put a lot of work into the property. It had all the mod cons you need and was spotless which I liked as I am quite fussy. So thank you all.

Richard

Very clean and well appointed.

Alison

The apartment was very well equipped and had a high end finish. The bedrooms and bathrooms were excellent.

Nicola

A home from home but better. The apartment is stunning with views to match. Very very clean and well maintained. The information book that the owner supply is brilliant. Lovely shops on the high street that is minutes away with everything you need. Moores chip ship at the top of street with proper chippy chips amazing. Drove to Dumfries and another couple of places but we wanted a relaxing holiday so spent a lot of time in hot tub. Great walk around the loch and back along high street

John

Fulfilled all the claims and more from the brochure. Not very often that happens Thanks for your part in a lovely week

Gillian

A very comfortable, contemporary accommodation in a lovely location. We particularly liked the feature wall in the open plan living area. The bed was very comfy and we loved having a hot tub to have the use of at the end of a busy day. There was lots of extras, coffee machine, sandwich maker etc. There was only the two of us, so it was a great adva ntage to have our own bathrooms.

Fiona

I think everything was pretty perfect, thank you

Claire

The apartment could not have suited us better. The location gave us the best of many worlds - tranquil loch plus grassy park where we could walk the dog; charming main street for groceries, gifts and eateries; and a number of beaches and tourist attractions a stones throw away. The apartment itself was shiny, tasteful and kitted out with everything we needed and more. Comfy beds and a balcony where we spent many hours. Lots of lovely small touches too: guest slippers and a welcome basket. Fab!

Iain

Very spacious and comfortable accommodation with all mod cons. Great idea to have the house designed upside down which worked for the open plan living and balcony.

Hazel

The house was amazing with everything you could want for the perfect holiday. The owner's attention to detail was greatly appreciated, as was the excellent welcome basket & fresh flowers waiting for us on arrival. We all had an excellent time!

Steve

Fantastic property. Great views over the loch. Comfy beds. Well worth it. Great for a "chill out " break. Thank you

Gillian
