Croftjane Cottage

  Great host and stay. Clear and friendly instructions. A well cosy and equipped cottage with great views over the valley. Pretty much everything you need there, but of course make... read more sure you bring enough food and drink with you as it’s a drive or long walk to the shops if you run out of wine! This is the part of Scotland people miss. Stunning scenery, quiet and very good quality Galloway food to be found.

  Claire was an incredible host. She left us some beautiful local shortbread, milk, tea and coffee which was greatly appreciated.
The cottage was an absolute dream to stay in... read more and had everything you would need for a weekend or long stay. The location was perfect, so quiet and tranquil. We would definitely return on our next trip to Scotland.

  Perfect stay! Beautiful beyond words, clean and Claire is a wonderful host. Responsive within minutes and very caring to anything you ask. Very child friendly.
A few things we did... read more with our young ones are the castle up the road, Kilnford shop for foodie lovers (an absolute delight) and for a deep fried Mars bars go to the Palmerston Cafe; both in Dumphries.
We got our eggs down the road from Jennifer Watt who is a very very talented sculptor. There is some incredible art at your doorstep here!!
A couple of trip tips: beautiful Coalface for a sort of art installation landscape, very soulful, and the castle ruins at Morton castle.
We did not even scratch the surface with things do locally I think. Amazing! So grateful we found this gem of a place.

  We had a great time at the cottage! The views are great, the house is very comfortable. The weather was great too so we were outside a lot. Claire is... read more a very friendly and helpful host.

  This is a lovely clean and spacious Cottage set amongst the rolling hills of Dumfries and Galloway. Its location is set in farmland in a quiet environment with cows... read more and horses in fields nearby. There is a lovely space by the side of the Cottage where one can eat on the picnic bench and use the swing seat on a sunny day.
The village of Thornhill is nearby and we liked the shop called Thomas Tosh with gifts, jewellery, books and beautiful stationery.
Also the Chinese restaurant called The Jade Garden for takeaways was lovely food and saved us cooking.

  We've stayed at the cottage a few times now and love Claires place so much we gave it as a gift to my in-laws who had an absolutely wonderfully peaceful... read more time, what a brilliant anniversary gift!
