Reviews

Dion 10/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Fantastic property in a lovely wee village with great pub 😂

Pros: The property was excellent and extremely homely. The whole place was extremely clean. Plenty of room for both of us and our labrador. Being at the rear of local pub was very handy. Lots to do in surrounding area. Jamie was a good host and replied to any questions very quickly. All amenities were provided down to tabs for dishwasher. Will certainly use again.

Cons: The pub. Was far too handy and food was so good we ate there the three nights we were there. Fantastic menu.

Sally 9/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: The Auld Byre by the Beach was a wonderful & cosy place to stay. Well equipped & spotlessly clean. Being in the grounds of the pub, it was lovely popping in for the evening. Staff were extremely friendly & helpful, definitely making us feel at home. Enjoyed the delicious pub meals. Perfect after a busy day exploring the area.

Cons: Possibly a little remote, although that also added to the beauty of the stay.

Perfectly peaceful

Pros: Love how quiet and peaceful the location was , ideal near the pub for good food and drink. Staff friendly . Accommodation had everything needed . Location was out on a limb but on a bus route but we don't mind driving and touring, along to see and do in the area. Highly recommended.

This was a clean and cosy cottage excellent what we needed (beach and visiting family). Great pub food next door

Pros: Really clean, warm, comfortable. Brilliant location wonderful pub next door with excellent food.

Cons: I would have liked a welcome guide with useful local information (such as closest shop, good beach suggestions of things to do etc.) I forgot milk so although tea, coffee and cleaning products were all provided, some emergency milk would have been very welcome

Steve 8/10
United Kingdom 🇬🇧

Pros: Location was good with views over the solway coast, the Auld Byre was clean and well equipped with a good enclosed grassed area to the rear for the dogs to be let out easily.

Cons: Might be an idea to fix the handle on the door from bedroom to outdoor area, as it was very stiff and difficult to lock.

Great place to stay and our dog loves it too

Pros: Lovely clean and cosy cottage in an attractive, quiet location. Had a very relaxing few days in the cottage and enjoyed a couple of good meals at The Steamboat Inn. Very happy that our dog was welcome too.
