Guests that stayed at this property said
The cottage received mixed feedback on cleanliness. While not mentioned by all, one review highlighted concerns with dust, mould, and unclean kitchen items, suggesting room for improvement.
The location is highly regarded for its excellent views and proximity to local attractions. However, some guests noted inconvenience due to nearby hotel activities and vehicle movement.
Most guests found the cottage to be warm, cosy, and well-equipped, contributing to a comfortable stay, though there were minor concerns about noise from a nearby hotel.
Facilities are generally good, with the property being well-furnished and equipped. However, the lack of internet access and some maintenance issues like mould and cleanliness detract from the score.
While there are mentions of a lovely welcome pack for guests and their pets, as these are personal touches that may vary, it's important to note that such gifts are not guaranteed for every stay.

We had a good time and enjoyed the cottage and Kippford. However the out look from the cottage was to the back of the Hotel, which should be made better, not a very good experience, and had a lot of vehicle movement from the back of the hotel
