"We stayed in the Byre, one of I think six accommodations on the premises."
I won't mark on the basis that it doesn't accommodate for disabilities, as we didn't mention it when booking for three persons.
The accommodation was excellent, lot's of space throughout, clean and tidy. Everything needed for a self-catering holiday is at hand and Carol will find you anything you need. This was a great weeks holiday, a walk from Newton Stewart, surrounded by beautiful countryside. Lots of nearby tourist landmarks if that's what you want, or piece and quiet in and outside the accommodation area. Perfect place to unwind. Thanks to Carol and her family.

"An excellent rental - the location is great, lovely countryside around and just a mile into Newton Stewart along the cycle path."
The house is really lovely, very modern and clean, lovely and warm and well-heated. The kitchen excellent too and very well equipped for home cooking, it has about all you could need. TV is good and there is reasonable wi-fi - fast enough for the basics. Highly recommended!

"We had a lovely comfortable stay at the byre, the only comment I would make is that in the double room the dressing table needs a taller stool and a mirror on it, when I sat on the stool to do my hair and makeup I couldn't see into the mirror, the table needed a lamp as the light wasn't great."

"Spacious cottage with fabulous views, yet in walking distance of the town (Newton Stewart)."
Very peaceful.
Usual shortage of pottery to allow economic use of the dishwasher.
Lack of cushions, place mats, napkins was probably due to covid 19 restrictions.
Plan to return next year.

"On arrival we were met by Carol who showed us around and told us what we needed to know about the property."
There were some minor issues but not enough to spoil our break which we enjoyed very much.
We let Carol, the owner/manager, know what we thought needed attention and these were
corrected before the arrival of the next guests.

"The Byre is a fantastic holiday cottage with a nice layout and all you need to have a great break away from home."
It is located very close to Newton Stewart, and there is a lovely bicycle path that allows you to walk or cycle right into the heart of the town without having to worry about traffic, which is great for small kids. The Byre also has fantastic views over the Cree estuary and Cairsnmore of Fleet, and with Galloway also being a Dark Sky park its great for photography too.

Carol was a fantastic host and our kids enjoyed playing with hers.
