Stayed five days at Ghillie's Cottage in mid-May. Made very welcome by Laura & David and the dog. The welcome pack is very well stocked. The property is an absolute delight, everything available as if you were at home and probably more. You are very near Penpont and Thornhill but the situation of property and the silence is a joy, very peaceful. Great to just sit in garden and relax and watch the cows and rabbits on hillside. There are plenty of things to do in area and we spent time travelling byways of Dumfresshire. Looking forward to returning again in the future.

We travelled to Scotland as a group of 8 people, 4 couples, looking to have a relaxing 5 days away. We had an excellent time! Laura was so friendly and the welcome basket was very appreciated! The rooms were spacious and of very good standard, the kitchen was equipped with everything we could possibly need and more. The garden was huge and we had a great time playing with all the different garden games available. We had long walks in the beautiful countryside and found inspiration on what to do in all the brochures in the cottage.
We are already planning our next visit. Highly recommended!

Excellent directions, very warm and welcoming reception. House spotless and to a very high standard. We were sorry to leave after only 2 nights and will definitely be back! Thoroughly recommended.

Had another amazing stay here, our 2nd visit, a finished work for Christmas get away with the girls and the dogs. The house is so beautiful with everything you could ever need. Its setting is so peaceful yet not a million miles away from anywhere if thats what you want. The Christmas tree and decs make it feel so homely. Thanks so much guys, hope to be back next year.

My second visit to Ghillies Cottage with the family. Not only is it in a beautiful spot but its a lovely and comfortable cottage. Nicely designed and well maintained with all the things you need even a couple of sharp knives.
The kids loved their rooms and the large bathroom with its stone floors and big views is a rare luxury. There are lots of local walks including a walk through the woods to the Castle Gardens. A short drive gets you to lovely old ruins, walks and villages. Caerlaverock Castle on a sunny day has to be one of the most enchanting ruins in Brittain.
In short Ghillies is an exceptional cottage in a lovely area.
