• "Amazing location and so private with many walks & fishing within the Estate … would definitely recommend a visit to Bloomen for delicious cake & coffee … we really enjoyed on our church/village walk."

  Extremely welcoming & accommodation has it all including really good beds & top quality bedding & towels … we all slept well & were not expecting the ‘walled garden’ toiletries … additional quality extras. Very dog friendly & hose available to wash down … downstairs utility & wc/bootroom such a bonus! Loads of storage including two fridges & a freezer … what is there not to like … already looking at booking for next year.

• "We had a lovely stay at the Mews flat."

  The accommodation is very spacious. Beds are very comfortable and the kitchen / lounge area is ideal for a family of 5 (plus a big dog). We thoroughly enjoyed the walks around the estate and venturing off to explore the local area. The owner was very friendly and helpful and we had everything we needed and more! If you’re looking to play golf I can recommend Thornhill, loch Maben and the County course in Dumfries. All were excellent.

  The Dalswinton Estate is extremely beautiful and the most lovely setting for a relaxing stay. The host, Mrs Sarah Landale was very helpful in replying to a query before we arrived and there were many brochures and informative maps of the area in the apartment.

  We were a family of 4 adults and 3 children, plus we had visiting hairdressers and a make-up artist on the day of the wedding. There was stacks of room for us all, including extra people who were just visiting for hair and make-up appointments. The beds were supremely comfortable, as were the sofas in the sitting room. The kitchen was equipped with everything anyone could possibly need. In short: perfect.

• "Excellent host and accomodation."

  Super setting and environment, ie private estate. Presented in a spotlessly clean, neat, warm and most comfortable way. Accomodation is however on two levels in former stable block with other residents and business (not an issue). Primary living space is on the first floor so there is possibly some restriction on access, which is up staircase. Ideal spot and location for outdoor sport enthusiast - even has shower room for pets! Planning to visit again.

• "My recent stay at The MEWS, DALSWINTON, was my 11th."

  or 12th. week there....all fishing related. From an angling point of view it is a real shame that YOU now let the property Friday to Friday and not Sunday to Sunday as it always used to be. In Scotland it is illegal to fish for salmon on a Sundays so we effectively lost a salmon fishing day. Previously we would travel to and from THE MEWS on a Sunday and enjoy a full 6 days salmon fishing. I feel that future salmon fishing folk would MUCH prefer a Sunday to Sunday let. THE MEWS was as good as it ever was. My last visit here was about 3 years ago.

  Good variety of birds for those who like bird watching. The whole area is lovely and lots to do and see especially for walkers. The roads are almost traffic free apart from round Dumfries itself. Plenty of historical sites and Scottish National Trust properties to explore. At the time of writing this I would say beware the pot holes when driving. Even the main roads have them!!
