• "Loved it! We didn’t want to leave."

  Peaceful location off a drive on a really quiet country lane. Lots and lots to explore in the vicinity, lovely walks: fields, streams, lochs, waterfalls and moors. Cottage was fitted and decorated to a high standard and had everything we could possibly need and thoughtful welcome goodies on arrival. Lovely friendly owners too. Recommended

  Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback, we couldn't ask for any more. We are so happy you enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the area. Property Owner

  There were all mod cons, well equipped and it was really cosy and comfy. We found some lovely walks nearby. Mostly though it had the peace and quiet we craved. Our dogs were made to feel really welcome and were well catered for which was important for us.

• "Really cosy cottage with fresh decor and every comfort thought of."

  When we booked there wasn’t a picture of the shower room so was slightly anxious but I shouldn’t have worried, the shower room is lovely too - with good water pressure. A very comfortable cottage that is well cared for and the owners really go the extra mile to make it a special little sanctuary.

• "A beautifully maintained and spotless cottage."

  From the bowl of free range eggs to the jar of delicious chocolate cakes and biscuits to the basket of dog toys in the cupboard, not a single thought had been forgotten to make us feel truly welcome. The hosts, Pauline and Derek were so friendly, even to Derek kindly coming to find us in the local village when we had got ourselves well and truly lost in deepest, darkest Dumfries-shire and leading us right to the cottage. The bedrooms were spacious and the beds/pillows very comfortable. Our two large Golden Retrievers slept with us on their vet bed in the twin bedroom and there was stacks of room. The dogs loved the totally secure garden. I would gladly give more than 5 stars if I could! We've rented quite a few cottages over the years and this was undoubtedly the best of the bunch. We'll be back!

  It was lovely to have you staying at Marr Cottage, we are so happy you all enjoyed yourself. Many thanks for taking the time and giving us fantastic feedback. We would love to see you and the dogs return.Many thanks Property Owner

• "Lovely cottage."

  You’re made to feel welcome as soon as you arrive. Fresh eggs from the farm were delicious. The kitchen is really equipped for cooking a meal. The garden was perfect for our two boxers dogs. There was sheep and lamb in the field right next to us so we got to watch the lambs playing around most mornings. The beds were comfortable and the whole cottage was clean/spotless. We all felt right at home. The weather wasn’t the best but we made the most of it and hopefully can return in the summer. If not for the rain I would have been in the garden most of the time. We went to the Thornhill inn for dinner one night which was great pub grub food. Not far from the cottage only about 15/20 mins. We also drove to Sandyhills beach one day with was about an hour away. But worth the drive even if it did rain. The beach was lovely and the dogs had a blast. We went for dinner to the birchtree hotel when we left sandyhills and the meal was amazing. Must visit if your heading down there. We will defo visit again soon. Thanks to Pauline and Derek for being amazing hosts. Kelly Kev Charley & The Girls Tilly Billie xx

  Well furnished and very comfortable. The enclosed garden was great even for a larger dog as I have a German Shepherd so I could relax with her sniffing around the garden.The location is very scenic with only the sheep and pheasants in the neighbouring fields. Added bonus was a trip to the farm with Pauline the owner to see the newborn lambs, definitely the highlight for me. Can’t wait to visit again.

  The most dog friendly environment.We went to explore and advise you get out and about - you will be incredibly rewarded, even out of the door. Walks we did and recommend ( do some research) Penbont to Kier Mill river walk, Tynron ( park in village hall car park) to Tynron Doon ( Iron Age settlement) well worth the slog- its beautiful. Rockcliffe on the Solway coast - beautiful coastal walk and drive to Steamboat inn at Carsethorne for a yummy lunch, lovely friendly pub with a stunning local real ale! Our favourite though was a drive through the Delveen Pass to the Gray Mares tail and waterfalls ( spectacular) then drive north about 1/2 way along St Mary’s reservoir and take the road to Tweedsmuir along Meggit and Talla reservoirs - about 18 miles of complete beauty and we passed 1 car and a cyclist! There is a walk just at the bottom of the hill with a board and a gate- park up and take the path up and view the river and scenic waterfalls- STUNNING, you will not want to stop going on! then drive on to lovely Moffat , we visited the distillery and bought a few bottles. On top of that you have Drumlanrig castle and it’s beautiful walks ( blue is best) on your doorstep.The hosts Pauline and Derek are lovely, unobtrusive and helpful when and if needed. We ( and the 2 Labradors) had an epic time.

The cottage was well equipped, spacious, clean and everything had been given attention to detail. Pauline and Derek couldn’t have been more helpful and welcoming. The little extras were a lovely gesture and so thoughtful. It was a fantastic holiday and we have made some lovely family memories which we will cherish. Thank you, Ian, Rachel, George & Star

  That is so kind of you, we are so happy you all enjoyed your holiday here in Dumfriesshire, it is an honour to have you choose to stay at Marr Cottage. Property Owner
