Anstey is an amazing host, very welcoming and knowledgeable about the local area, and communication throughout was excellent. We stayed here as a family of four, two young kids aged 3 and 6, we all immediately felt at home, the cottage is spacious and well curated, as well as being clean and tidy. The cottage is well equipped with pretty much everything you would need, there was even toys for kids inside and out and great outdoor space for the kids to play, there is a nice decking area with a table, chairs and a parasol. Location is excellent and a great base to explore the local areas, it is close to castle Douglas foe food shopping and much more.
