Nice location but felt outdated and unclean
Pros:

Nice quiet location tucked away. Right next to the river. Okay parking

Cons:

The photos are deceptive in my opinion. They look a lot warmer, cosy and well kept. The place felt unloved and in need of a deep clean. Lots of cobwebs, dust, mould and a smell of damp.

A lovely cottage with a the sound of the river
Pros:

A lovely cottage with the sound of the river. The cottage was a good size and well equipped with a great shower. The beds were comfortable. We were only there for one night so didn't have time to visit the area but it seemed very peaceful.

Cons:

Unfortunately one room had a definite "doggy" smell, which is maybe expected in a pet friendly place but was a bit off-putting for us non-doggy folks.

Nothing.

Pros:

Nice location, plenty of room in accommodation... the owner was very helpful when we complained about the mattresses he replaced 2 of them.

Cons:

The place needed a good clean, the mattresses were old and lumpy needed replacing the fridge was dirty and there was no toilet paper...for what you got it was not worth the price.

Nice comfy cottage
Pros:

Nice spot with comfortable accomodation down a quiet road. Everything we needed for a one night stop on a cycling trip. Plenty of space and good facilities.

Cons:

No complaints though the shower does leak a little onto the floor if you're not super careful.

Spacious and attractive cottage by the Nith
Pros:

It’s very spacious and the location by the Nith is attractive. It was very clean and well furnished. Plenty of tea and coffee with some complimentary biscuits which was nice. The beds were very comfortable. There was plenty of parking. All very good.

Cons:

A trivial point - a hairdryer did not seem to be provided but this is a very minor niggle.
