The 4 of us, 2 adults and 2 dogs had an excellent time.
The 4 of us, 2 adults and 2 dogs had an excellent time. The welcoming pack was excellent and well thought out and much appreciated. There was plenty of information for local amenities and places to visit. The location was well situated for getting out and about and enjoying Dumfries and Galloway. We would consider using this as a base again for future holidays.
