"I stayed here for a week for a cycling holiday with my husband and sister-in-law."
The cottage is extremely comfortable and well equipped, one of the best we've had. The weather was cold, but the pre-set central heating kept us warm. Very comfortable beds, great kitchen equipment, no problem making full meals. Plenty of free parking in the street. Very quiet. There is a clothes airer, and we also hung washing out in the garden. One thing, if you bring a bike, the (excellent) lockable storage area is down a vennel where the wheelie bins are kept. It was a squeeze to take the bikes in and out, and if you have very wide handlebars you'd struggle. We loved Kirkcudbright and the surrounding countryside and would definitely return to this accommodation.

About the location
KIRKCUDBRIGHT
Dumfries 25 miles.
The historic and picturesque town of Kirkcudbright sits on the banks of the River Dee on the north Solway coast. Established as a Royal Burgh in 1455 this small port town has always been supported by a busy fishing trade and is home to a blue flag marina. Behind this working harbour, its wide streets and pastel-coloured houses, a mix of Georgian and Victorian town houses make for a very attractive town centre. Particular places of interest are the Tolbooth Museum, Broughton House and Gardens (National Trust for Scotland), the Stewartry Museum, MacLellan's Castle, and the newly refurbished town Art Gallery. Kirkcudbright is also known as the 'Artists' Town'. From the 1870s onwards the town has both produced and attracted a wide range of talented artists and crafts people, and there is a fine collection of art galleries and arts and crafts shops. If you want your holiday to include some breaks from cooking you will find plenty of cafes and restaurants to choose from, including the historic Selkirk Arms Hotel, and, near the harbour, Throughout the summer the town organises a wide range of activities including the four day Arts and Crafts Trail, four-day Jazz Festival, a weekly Scottish night with pipe band and dancing (especially for children), weekly town tours, farmers markets, a vintage car rally... the list is endless. Visitors can also use the town's swimming pool, bowling club, golf club and tennis courts. Further afield there is the Galloway Activity Centre on beautiful Loch Ken, which offers a range of water sports, or perhaps best of all are the opportunities for walking, cycling, fishing, or just driving along the coasts and in the hills and valleys in some of Scotland's loveliest unspoilt scenery.
