"Lovely flat, really clean and beautiful conversion."
Great to have two bathrooms for the four of us. Moffat was a lovely town and easy access for surrounding areas.
-
"The property illustrations show a lovely brightly lit flat in a delightful old church set amid well tended flower beds."
Reality. It suffers from years of neglect. The shrubbery and flower beds are overgrown with weeds and what lighting within the flat remains working provide a maximum illumination equivalent to 40 watt. The apartment was very cold. The underfloor heating is either cut off or not working. 2 out of 3 safety doors do not fasten nor does the shower room/toilet door. There are other faults in the shower room, bathroom and kitchen.

"An excellent location and clean apartment with plenty of space for up to four people."
The appliances were good and the internet signal was strong. The parking is good even for a large car or SUV. Easy to walk into town where there are some really nice restaurants and there is usually some event going on in Moffat. On the downside we arrived to find a sink with a plug jammed and a light not working which we reported to Sykes since there was no other contact listed. We were assured the owner would fix these but heard nothing from them. The heating had a message that it was to be left set at a certain temperature and not adjusted. In fact the thermostats were at different temperatures and the place remained cold all week. The stairwell is uninviting and the maintenance on this part of the building is very poor. However, if you want somewhere convenient to explore southern Scotland then give this place a chance and hopefully maintenance and communication issues will be addressed.

"Lovely property in the heart of Moffat and minutes away from the motorway and a great base to explore the local area."
A couple of issues at the start of our stay were quickly sorted by the owner and did not impact on our stay overall. The apartment was well equipped and the under floor heating and washing machine were welcome after a days walking.

"This is a stunning property with all the essentials and more."
This had a very luxurious feel to it and was right in the heart of Moffat where there are lots of amenities. We also loved all the local walks. Would recommend to everyone. We had the most wonderful stay!

About the location
MOFFAT
Dumfries 21 miles
Nestling in the Annandale valley, Moffat developed in the 17th century from a village to a spa town where the sulphurous waters of the Moffat Well were held to have the power to heal and this led to an influx of visitors throughout the 18th and 19th centuries. Many of the buildings in the town date from this period and the present Town Hall was originally developed as a Bath House. The original well can still be visited and is a 1.5 mile walk from the town into the surrounding countryside. In addition to its renown as a spa town, Moffat also grew in stature due to the wool trade and also its position as a stopping point on journeys between England and Scotland. Today the town is popular with tourists and not just because of the superb scenery affording many opportunities for great walking, cycling and fishing. Situated 50 miles from Glasgow and Edinburgh, Moffat is the ideal base for travelling to events in the cities. It has a range of attractions including the Moffat Museum, theatres, art galleries and a selection of shops, cafes and restaurants. Treat yourself to some famous Moffat Toffee and don’t miss the annual Moffat Gala in July and not forgetting the renowned Moffat Sheep Races in August!
