Absolutely fantastic. Great views, enclosed patio for the dog and the cottage was clean and really well equipped.

Rachael

Perfect holiday for myself, partner and boys (dogs). Beautiful location away from all the hustle and bustle of every day life. Wildlife was stunning and we loved it so much already rebooked.

William

The website does not do justice to the place. Plus there were plenty of brouchures and information leaflets about local areas. Owners were vey discrete. The quality and standard of equipment and fittings was 1st class. We were also allowed in early which helped. i do not normally take time out to do these surveys.

Jennifer

Really enjoyed our time, we were able to just take a break and relax from everything. We will definitely be back for another visit

Phillip

Lovely accommodation

Catherine

Excellent lodge. Been twice now. Lovely walks. Lodge is spotless with great facilities. View is awesome. Def 5 star. . No owner contact so full privacy.

Gary

This was our second stay and was every bit as good as the first. The lodge is immaculate, comfortable and has everything you might need. The location is beautiful, right on the waterfront where we saw a variety of birds and a seal. And deer right next to the lodge in the mornings. Highly recommended

Karen

lovely sea views from lodge very peaceful and relaxing

Lorna

Amazing property (Platinum 4) at the far end of the Platinum lodges. Really dog friendly, with easy access to the coast path, and enclosed patio area, meaning our dog was safe whilst enjoying the hot tub. Hearing the waves and seeing the sea is lovely and we were lucky enough to have a clear view over to the Lakes on a few days, including the wind Read moreturbines in the distance. Hide

Barbara

We had an excellent holiday in Lodge Platinum Four. It was very clean and comfortable. A big appeal of this lodge is its isolation and tranquility , surrounded by exquisite nature with views and accompanying sound of the sea. We plan to return again next year.

Alexander

Floor to ceiling windows give a fab view of surrounds and wildlife.Enclosed glass verandah keeps pets secure .My wife really enjoyed hot tub.

Calum

Amazing week away in Platinum 4. A home away from home (plus a hot tub), the equipment is all there for you, right down to the cupboards being stocked with any cleaning or kitchen essentials! The view was incredible and the area around about was all gorgeous. Castle Douglas is only a 20 minute drive away if you fancy some retail therapy in its stor es or need a top up of supplies. My girlfriend and I were already planning our next visit to here next year. Amazing holiday, would highly recommend

Bruce

I would recommend these lodges absolutely beautifully waking up to the sound of the waves breaking on the beach lovely walks around the bay lying in the hot tub gazing at the stars amazing.

Sue

Fabulous location, nice and quiet. Loved watching the night skies in the hot tub. Plenty of shooting stars. Great walks from lodge with the dogs. Nice touch of chocolate, biscuits and wine on arrival.

Mark

We love this place and have already booked for our third visit, the lodges are superb, the surrounding area is beautiful and remote enough to make you feel youre in your own little world, but a small village shop is close by for for when you need supplies, or Castle Douglas is only a 20 minute drive for any bigger shopping trips or takeaway meals y ou might fancy, without doubt our favourite pet friendly destination!!

Susan

Wonderful holiday home, and lovely quite location. Second time we have been, we cant wait to go again.

Absolutely fantastic holiday. The location is stunning and the lodge itself is luxury at the highest level. It has everything you need. The perfect place to get away from life and just relax and reset. Would love to return at a different time of year.

Catherine

Great location, so nice hearing and seeing the sea on the Solway Firth. Gorgeous cabin, loved the snug area. Nice and remote for peace and quiet. Great for walks. Will be returning to experience it in the summer.

Jayne

What a piece of heaven in this location of rascarrel bay, it is absolutely beautiful, and so peaceful and quiet, the lodge was ideal to sit and watch the sea and birds from the little decked area, the lodge was impeccably clean as well as the hot tub that was checked and topped up every morning by the owner who was lovely and keen to help with anyt hing we may have needed, she left us a nice welcome of fresh cut flowers, a bottle of wine coffee and biscuits which was a nice touch, lots of walks.

Maureen

the lodge was spotles a few wee goodies for people and dog on arrival bathroom was bigger than my kitchen you have everything you need at hand including washing machine and dryer so no need to over pack sitting out on the patio under the mood lighting at night just listining to the sound of the sea was relaxing as was the jucuzzi after a days walki ng in the stunning countryside over all we had a great time will def go back

Julie

Our second visit to Platinum 4 at Rascarrel Bay. Beautiful well equipped lodges in an amazing location. The views are outstanding especially from the hot tub. Great walks from the doorstep. Very dog friendly. If you want a peaceful, luxury, dog friendly lodge then this is the place for you. Will definitely be returning soon.

Lisa

The lodge and the location were both absolutely stunning. The lodge is very well equipped and spacious with great outside space with a hot tub and sun loungers. We had the most perfect week, it was so enjoyable we have already booked our next visit.

Alexander

Excellent luxurious accommodation with so much attention to detail , a haven of peace and tranquillity . Its so easy to become hypnotised looking out over the Bay . Located in a lovely unspoilt part of the country . Definitely hope to return .

Andy

Just spent a week in the Platinum 4 Lodge. The main thing for us was a good secure area for our dog. The enclosed patio was superb for him. No chance of him getting loose and he could see everything going on nearby. The lodge is immaculate and the location stunning. We couldn't have asked for a more peaceful week. Spent many an hour just chilling i n the sun during the day after walks in the morning. Kipford, Kirkcudbright, Castle Douglas are all worth a visit. Would love to return in the future.

Karen

Spent a week in July. Had a fantastic holiday. My husband and dogs were looking for a quiet beautiful location and found it here. Small travel in the car to lovely wee villages. Spotless and well equipped lodge. Will be going back

Kim

Amazing property and very well equipped. Delightful welcome pack (thank you). I would not hesitate in recommending to others. A property well away from the rat race, views to die for, nature all around - AMAZING.

Samantha

This was our second stay at Rascarrel bay lodges and we are already planning to book a 3rd for next year. This place is 100% perfect for us. Quiet location, very private, stunning views, hot tub, safe and secure for the dogs, beautiful walks straight out the front door, the lodge is clean and extremely well equipped there is lots of info on the loc al area. Beautiful beaches close by. We went to Sandyhills beach and Southerness beach. This place is just perfect. We love it.

Heather

Fabulous property very clean and welcoming. The views were amazing and the hot tub was fantastic to view them from. The town Castle Douglas was only approximately 7 miles away and had everything you need. We went for our anniversary meal at a restaurant called Mr Pooks it was amazing highly recommend going. Dumfries town centre is approximately 45 mins away and Port Patrick was 1hr 20 mins away getting to both very easy and straight forward. Well definitely be coming back to Rascarral Bay
