Cob Cottage Reviews

Moira
The cottage was clean and fully functional, would recommend this holiday home to friends.
Rachel
Had the perfect break away staying here! The cottage had everything you may need and the hot tub was great! Our dog loved his stay here also! We will absolutely be back!
Chistine
Delightful cottage, warm and cosy. Garden very safe for pets but close to quite a busy road once the gate is open.
William
The cottage was ideal for touring South Ayrshire and only a 15 min drive from Dumfries House which is a must visit. The road is a busy shortcut across country but a high wall and fencing keeps the garden secure for pets. A pity that the landowner of the estate does not encourage visitors with appropriate signage but loads to visit all around
Thomas
Don't hesitate to call for help if you need it. We had great service when some lights failed.
Sarah
Very relaxing not much around thou so drove around to get to destination if you wanted to get away n escape the perfect place
Rosie
A beautiful cottage in an equally beautiful location. The large, enclosed garden was perfect for our children and dogs to run around in. The hot tub was a added luxary! Loved staying here and we'll definitely be back.
Stacey
We loved our stay at Cob cottage. Such a lovely location and the cottage was perfect. Very dog friendly with a lovely big garden to run around in. Owners obviously really think about what maybe needed during the stay which made it even better :) Having the hot tub ready to jump into after a long journey up was very much appreciated! We would love t o come and stay again. We were sad to leave.
Emma
Absolutely amazing and perfect for the dogs too
Fiona
Good location for visiting places of interest and walking sections of the river Ayr pathway. Dean Castle, Kilmarnock, worth visiting for significant collection of musical instruments and armour. Dumfries House and grounds should not be missed. Plenty of interest for fans of Scotlands great poet, Robert Burns.
Maria
Had a lovely weekend at the property but there was no internet access as listed. The hot tub was broken although we were allowed to use another on the estate. I had elderly parents with me and they found the property cold at this time of year. Even after heating the rooms cooled down quickly. Road can be busy and noisy. We still enjoyed our me stay .
