House holiday rentals in Dumfries and Galloway

Such a beautiful place so relaxing people on site were really friendly and helpful fully enjoyed my time will definitely return again also thank you to the hosts of this beautiful home for letting us use it and for being so lovely had such a lovely weekend can't wait to return

We had a fantastic stay as family. The views are just stunning. The cottage is very cosy and well equipped. We enjoyed being outdoors in the woods and on the beach when the weather was good. On wetter days the Aga and stove kept the cottage lovely and warm, and Wigtown and Kirkcudbright a delight to visit. A lovely spot.

The apartment is as pictured, comfortbale with beautiful views. It was the perfect spot for exploring the Lakes. There is also lots on offer at Whitbarrow Holiday Village making it a great place to stay.

Nice cottage nicely presented on site with many other cottages. Kids had almost exclusive use of pool and had proper unaided swim!

My second stay at this place. Was very impressed the first time. A very relaxing and very tidy place to spend a weekend with family. Very good view of the sea and Alisa Craig island rock. Caroline and Stuart were very helpful and accommodating with my scheduling of the stay. Highly recommend this place.

Great stay and location Lovley and clean I think we will be back

What a fantastic place to stay! Beautiful views from every window and so quiet and peaceful. Nice to have fenced in secure garden for dogs, lots of parking space and bike storage. Bedrooms comfortable, immaculately clean and provided with bath sheets and hand towels. Great showers and plenty of facilities. Kitchen with AGA and lovely big table for family meals, plenty of crockery and cutlery. Appreciated having two TV rooms for different generations and good Wifi for the workers. All in all a delightful place to stay, peaceful, yet near to local shop and main road and easy to get to everywhere. We hope to return...

It was a very peaceful location and the Lodge was very comfortable. The hot tub and pool table were a lovely bonus. Nigel the host was very helpful and made us feel welcome. The area is beautiful and there's some lovely walks including forests and beaches. Dumfries is just up the road. We'd definitely stay again!

Beautiful house and amazing host, will definitely stay again

We stayed in the barn for 4 days and absolutely loved the experience! It was cosy, peaceful, and full of charm—perfect for a relaxing getaway. Everything was clean and well thought out, and the surroundings were beautiful. We would definitely recommend it to others and hope to come back again! The host, Stephen, was easy to contact and often responded within the hour, which made everything even smoother. Thank you!

Yvonne added the personal touch with a welcome/happy Easter card. This was a one night stop after a busy week in the highlands. We needed a chill and Yvonne provided everything we needed and more. We enjoyed a board game in a very comfortable home. Lots of extras of a high quality.Thank you for your hospitality. Close to M6, close to all amenities. Welcome pack extremely well presented and everything considered. Wished we could have stayed longer!

What a great little place. Perfect for our family of 4 to stay in. Lovely and tidy and matched the photos and description perfectly. VERY, VERY helpful host, possibly the best we’ve ever encountered. I would, without hesitation recommend this place and its host and will hopefully return in the near future.

The place was absolutely beautiful, clean and had everything you need. The house was massive, the pictures don’t do it justice. The bedrooms and beds were super comfy and the bathrooms were spotless. There’s a spacious garden in the back and lots of space for parking. The location was perfect , not too far from the main locations in the Lake District. The check-in process was very easy and David’s instructions were clear and easy to follow. David was responsive and gave us lots of local recommendations. If you’re a big group traveling by car, I highly recommend this place.

Perfect. There isn’t anything Sue hasn’t thought of. The property has everything you need for your stay. Everything. Sue even has a dog drawer in the dresser, she really has thought of everything. Silloth is a lovely place, so quiet and Sue provided information on local restaurants, cafes, takeaways and pubs. I cannot recommend this property highly enough.

Rose was excellent. I made a mistake with the numbers of people staying and sorted it out promptly. House was soo lovely and it was a great stay.

We had a fantastic stay at this Airbnb! The house was incredibly spacious—perfect for a big group or family getaway. The garden was beautiful and well-kept, offering a lovely outdoor space to relax. Everything was sparkling clean, and the place had almost every amenity we could ask for. Clearly well maintained and thoughtfully prepared. A special shoutout to our host, Jade—she was amazing! Super responsive and helpful, always ready to assist with anything we needed. She wouldn’t even take a minute to respond to our questions. Truly made the experience even better. We would definitely love to visit again!

Thank you for the most amazing stay at Barnbackle Janice was the most amazing host and couldn't have done anymore to accomodate us. We were in Scotland on holiday and due to a medical emergency we had to stay in the Dumfries area. I found Barnbackle cottage on Airb&b and reached out to Janice. Straight away Janice helped us out with an earlier check in and was keen to help out in any way she could. The cottage was warm, welcoming and a much needed retreat for all of us. There were local shortbreads, milk in the fridge and even fresh flowers in a jug! Lovely, personal touches throughout. You have a wonderful home and are kind, responsive and helpful hosts. Keep doing what you're doing!

So glad we found this gem ! Perfect for our short stay while visiting family in Ayr. Beautiful and generously spaced property stylishly furnished. It was the cleanest Airbnb we have stayed at so far. Little touches (coffee, tea etc) were very much appreciated. Marcus was very responsive and communicated brilliantly. We felt very at home here and will hopefully be back.

Thanks so much for our stay and your hospitality, Chris’ communication was faultless and it is a beautiful home which was perfect for our stop off. I would have stayed longer!

Staying at Lorna's place was very nice. The space is warm and cute, it has the essentials. When we arrived we found bread, milk, coffee and tea for us. The bed is comfortable and everything works fine. Thank you for everything Lorna!!
