The house was exactly as described on the website. However, the website photos could not do justice to the actual views and setting. Absolutely stunning. The house is situated in the heart of the town and only 5 minutes walk to cafe and restaurants. Perfect for a family short break. The kids loved the two games room.

Braesyde is a great house for family gatherings and taking time out to recharge the busy life batteries. Lots of space. Loads of equipment which was really useful. The welcome packs? Well what can I say? Both exceptional. We hope to return to Braesyde, Kippford in the future. Thank you Stuart for hosting.
