  Extremely well equipped, lovely cottage in a quiet edge of village setting.

  Southern Upland Way passes right by the door. Nice touch on arrival; milk, teabags and biscuits provided and much appreciated. Rear garden gravelled throughout with table and chairs to enjoy the view. Bedroom is a little narrow as described and care is needed. Kitchen has everything for a comfortable stay. Placement of the toilet roll holder made us smile, located on the wall behind the toilet. For convenience, suggest moving it to the wall opposite, next to the radiator. We didn't use the wood burning stove in the lounge, but can see others may appreciate it. Cold times of the year however, may require adjustment of the electric heating timings. Overall a very pleasant stay and would not hesitate to recommend the cottage. Plenty of interest in the area to keep visitors entertained. Thanks for the stay from Anne, Stephen and the dogs.

  Handy location for my activities at Forest Lodge where I needed to come and got at random times and have food preparation facilities.

  Didn't have chance to use the log burner due to being out most of the time so not worth lighting the fire, but noticed that although there were a reasonable number of logs there was no spare kindling for a second fire if I had used it. Thankfully the storage heaters just about kept enough warmth in he cottage to allow me to be reasonable comfortable in the cold weather. Only real issue was that the bedroom was rather cramped and I found it impossible to walk down the side of the bed especially with arthritic knees and being a large person. I ended up having to move the bed to one side to increase the space on the other side so that I could squeeze into and out of the bed. In general the cottage was good for my purposes and I am probably looking to book it again for next year - just sad to notice a sizeable price rise for next year.

  We were made very welcome with milk & biscuits both fir humans & dogs.

  Sofa large & comfortable. Nice sized garden with good seating area & table, south facing & the weather was very hot so well used. Great shower, ample towels. I know the listing made it quite clear the bedroom was narrow but the bed frame sticks out so on the first night I managed to bash my shin and because the weather was warm it was like sleeping in a shoe box. But the worse thing was the sheet, thick & woolly, really uncomfortable. (Probably due to the unusual heatwave). There is no door between the kitchen & lounge either so it was difficult to get the dogs to sleep in their beds in the kitchen. Having said all that we did have a lovely week, the kitchen was great, lounge really comfy, good porch to dump your walking stuff. Nice sized garden with interest for the dogs & great shower.

  The property was as described and we enjoyed our stay.

  We didn’t use the hot tub and perhaps this should be offered as an option so that if it is not used, the cost of making it available is saved. We noted the request to keep the bathroom ventilated and quickly understood why as we had some wet weather and the atmosphere outside was noticeably damp to us. Perhaps the bathroom should have an independent electric radiator that can be left on when the rest of the heating is not needed, just a thought. It is a lovely property and suited our needs well. The area has a lot to offer and we had no difficulty filling our days. The area is generally quite flat and the side roads are well signed for walking and cycling. There is good information in the Bothy about local walking and cycling routes. Recommended.

  Edge Hill is a super little cottage, it is spotlessly clean, warm and comfortable.

  It is the perfect base for visiting Galloway and surrounding area. The bed is comfortable, the bed is tight in the bedroom, as shown by the photos but dont think a lot can be done about that. I hit my toes on bed leg as I was getting into bed and it hurts but I learnt to be careful lol. I wanted for nothing more in the kitchen, everything was there. We visited both The Clachen and Lochinvar Hotel both were excellent. We went to see The Red Deer Range and fed the deers (they love carrots) and saw the Wild Goats. Raiders Road and Otters Pool well worth a visit. Also as a Liverpool supporter went to Glen Buck where Bill Shankly was born. Would we come back to Edge Hill.....you bet we would. Thank you for the treats you left us.
