What guests say
“Our stay at Flag Cottage was very pleasant. The cottage has been beautifully finished to the highest standard. Violet our dog loved the garden as she felt very safe. Lots to do in the area, walking from Kippford to Sandyhills is a must. We will definitely return.”
“We have enjoyed our time here, the walks, the people, the food, and this gem of a property which has ticked all our boxes. Our collie loved the garden, her treats and the fresh air. Thank you for the attention to detail; the small touches made us feel so cosy.”
“We had a lovely stay and were made to feel very welcome. We enjoyed the sun room, watching the sea and the local wildlife. Flag Cottage is beautifully decorated and a great base to explore the countryside and beaches. Kippford, Rockcliffe and Carrick beach are worth visiting.”
