Well appointed ,very comfortable house
The property was in a good location which afforded good views and only a short walk from the town centre.
The kitchen had everything we could want and there was an excellent supple of DVDs and books as well as two sitting rooms, both with TVs..
We benefited from a bountiful supply of plums from the garden.

A week in Kirkcudbright
This is a very well appointed, modern cottage. In fact it isn't a cottage it's a family home with all the facilities that you would expect. Really well appointed, warm and comfortable. A great location for a dog owner with a walk in the woods 5 minutes away, and Kirkcudbright surrounded by beautiful coastlines and countryside. You could easily spend two weeks in this area and not see half of the things that you wanted to see. We loved Arakhova and would highly recommend it and the support that you get from Visit Scotland. I hope that you enjoy your stay here as much as we did.
