As a child, I used to spend my Summer Holiday's here, at The Ross with my Aunt Maisie and Uncle Bob, who lived in the Dairy House. Sadly both passed away many year's ago, so, to be able to get to stay here once again was like a Dream Come True for me. My Fiancé Alastair, Our 13 year old Granddaughter Kalli and Our Labrador Luna booked into the Old CheeseLoft, (where I used to watch Uncle Bob and my Cousin Andy making huge amounts of the Best Farmhouse Cheddar you could wish to eat), which is now a Luxury 5 Person Holiday Cottage. I only wish we could've stayed far longer, as it was as Magical ...more

Second visit to Byre by the Sea and every bit as good as last one. The house exudes calmness and comfort - a very special place to visit in a glorious area of Scotland.

Had a lovely restful week away at Dairy House. Everything as described Sue was lovely a d made us a wonderful lemon drizzle cake for our arrival. We were so lucky with the weather in Feb. A perfect getaway to recharge and relax, clean, comfortable and welcoming. The back garden was nice and secure for our lurcher who loved it. No light pollution so stargazing was amazing we had lots of clear nights and managed to get some great pics including the northern lights. Didn't want to come home and will definitely be returning

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely hut on the farm. It was tranquil, private and very special. Sue was so welcoming and accommodating, which started our short 2 night stay off perfectly. We ended up staying a 3rd night, due to a storm hitting the morning we were to leave we. It was fun hunkering down, cosily watching telly, and reading while winds blew. The underfloor heating kept us warm. The main day of our stay was gorgeously sunny. We drove the 20min to Kirkcudbright spending most of the day getting brunch, looking around the shops, walking our spaniel along the river, admiring ...more

Must have stayed here five or six times now! Every time we feel so at home, and find new places to visit. Really can't recommend it enough. The village is picture perfect, peaceful and friendly. Have already booked for next year.
