The host is super helpful, we were sent a copy of the information prior to our arrival, so we knew a little about the cottage before we arrived, such as where to park. We were then messaged on the day with the codes we needed yo access the property.
The location! This is a great place for exploring the local area. Handy for places like Dumfries, Lincluden Collegiate Church, Caerlaverock Castle, and Drumlanrig Castle. As well as a bit further afield.
The size of the cottage is rather deceptive. It feels a lot bigger inside than it looks from the outside.
It has a washing machine! Although we didn't use it, I can imagine it would come in very handy for anyone staying longer than we did who experiences a few muddy walks around Scotland.
The enclosed garden, if the weather had been warmer this would have been a lovely place to sit and have a BBQ.
Pet friendly, although we didn't bring a pet, I loved the thoughtfulness of the items provided for any dog owners.
We also loved that the first set of logs for the fire were included.
Just a tiny little inconvenience, really, there was no dish cloth or kitchen roll. As there is a dishwasher, this wasn't an issue for washing up, but it did make keeping surfaces clean when cooking or wiping down the table difficult.

Boggle Dyke Cottage is situated in a lovely location. Upon entering the cottage it was exceptionally clean and tidy with a cosy welcoming atmosphere. The log burner was beautiful and made the evenings particularly lovely. Very comfortable large bed. Pretty enclosed garden. Everything we could possibly need was provided and the hosts communication was first class. We highly rate Boggle Dyke Cottage and hope to return again some time in the future. Thankyou for providing us with the perfect stay.

It was clean, comfortable and very well equipped. The little enclosed garden is a great place to sit in the sun and for our dog to play in. Massive comfy bed too!
Nothing to dislike

Beautiful little cottage, one of the nicest we have stayed in. Well equipped and very comfortable. The enclosed rear garden was a real bonus for our dog and we even managed to sit in the sunshine one evening. We only stayed for two nights on our way home from Skye but would happily have stayed longer.

Great area for walking and sightseeing. Plenty of cafe’s with good food. Can recommend Jinty’ b’s in Thornhill and Kilnford Farm shop near Dumfries. Very pet friendly cottage.
Occasional early morning traffic noise can be heard.

Although on a main road (which we knew in advance) the bedroom was on the back so we were not disturbed. The bed is enormous and super comfy. The kitchen facilities are first class, we had everything we needed during our 4 night stay. The host left excellent detailed and clear instructions how to operate all the equipment in the cottage, plus other useful information. The cottage has central heating and a small log burner.
Our main concern was the condensation in the bathroom after a shower due to the lack of a extractor fan, if not possible to install a fan because of wall thickness try a cheap portable (99p) dehumidifier in there. Personally I would have liked a blind on the back door. Hope theses pointers may help your business. We enjoyed our stay.

Spoke to owner, txt when cottage ready with instructions.
Cottage 12’ from the edge of A76 main road! This NOT made clear on Booking.com, one review said she knew the area and the road but didn’t mind as bedroom to the rear. TV reception not very good, neighbour said there are problems because of the hills in the area. Oddly, perhaps 65% of the electric sockets are blocked off! Bizarre! Not possible to have bedside light on whilst radio plugged in! Cottage hot, am not easy attempting to sleep with windows open on ground floor, poor night ~ awake early, showered and left at 09.20hrs, not due to leave Boggle Cottage for 24hours.

Well equipped comfortable cottage
The cottage has a busy A road close by which we knew about when we booked. However, it quietened down in the evening and overnight so didn't disturb our sleep.

This delightful cottage is tiny but beautifully proportioned. It contained everything we could need. It was immaculately clean and tidy
If you are noise sensitive it is quite close to a busy road but this was only noticeable at rush hour times

Good location with everything you need for a stay. Warm and comfortable.
Traffic noise at first but after a day it just becomes background noise.
4.7
The cottage was lovely and well equipped, the perfect size for 2. Having read reviews and checked location on Google maps before booking we knew to expect a little road noise which was easily drowned out by having the TV on/playing a little music, so it was barely noticeable, and not at all from the bedroom. The shower was amazing! The host was quick to respond to a query I had before staying and checking in was simple.
The mattress was a little soft but that's personal preference.

It was clean , fresh and modern. the bedroom at the back of the bungalow cut out any traffic noise and it wasn’t a problem. Providing wood for the log burner was lovely.

Well equipped, clean and cosy cottage. We felt very comfortable and relaxed there. Julia's communication was excellent. Very dog friendly - the enclosed garden was ideal for our elderly dog to potter around. We would stay again!

Very clean and well-equipped. Nice little log burner to create a nice ambience. Regular bus service to Thornhill.
Close to the main road but not really a problem with traffic noise especially at night- little traffic
4.7
As I'd been in touch with Julia she told me where the keys would be located.
Nothing I didn't like... if the keys are safe and readily available then there's no need for the host to meet guests on arrival!
4.7
Lovely little cottage, very well equipped. Pretty sunny garden. Great location. Would highly recommend. Julia really helpful and easy instructions. We loved our stay there.
4.7
Beautiful clean little cottage, really well equipped, genuinely a home from home experience. A little garden that you can enjoy if the weather is nice too! Really modern interior feel, within a very traditional Scottish cottage. A huge bed that was very comfortable was a bonus!
Nothing! The only drawback is that cottage sits next to a main road, meaning you sometimes get big trucks rumbling past, however, it didn't bother us at all, they don't seem to go by at night, and anyway the bedroom is in the back of the cottage and we had 3 very restful nights. Its also super convenient to find, and explore from there!
