It was our 4th holiday here at Ross Bay, and yet again we were not disappointed with anything! It is always spotless and tidy, cake and ice cream at the ready, and a warm welcome and goodbye from Sue. The weather was lovely and warm, and the views were breathtaking as usual. You can do as much, or as little as you want on this type of holiday. We had quite a laid back lazy break this time, but you can easily find lots of things to do, and places to eat, etc. Thank you again Sue and family for another wonderful holiday.
As always The Old Cheeseloft was spotlessly clean. The property has stunning and very relaxing views out to Ross Bay and a lovely outside seating area to enjoy them from. It is extremel tastefully decorated and in lovely condition with luxurious fittings. Nothing is too much trouble for Sue the host who might I add bakes delicious cakes which await your arrival. Dog friendly and walks from the door. Beach outside and within easy reach of other local beaches. Kircudbright approximately 10 minutes by car. This was our fourth visit and we plan to return.
This was our first visit to Ross Bay Retreat, so we did not know what to expect. However, from the moment we arrived we knew we had made a good choice. The house was very clean and comfortable. Someone once told that if the bed you are going to isn't as comfortable as the one who leave at home don't go. Well, the beds were "just right" as a certain golden haired girl said on trying the little bear's bed. As for settings, I put a picture of the bay on social media and there very many appreciative comments, some suggested it was suitable for framing. We found it a peaceful and restful place ...more
First class accommodation, beautifully prepared, every care taken, well beyond anything we have experienced before. The setting is superb, looking out over the bay, wonderful walks right from the door with no need to use the car. All in all, a most relaxing holiday.
