Vacation rentals with beach access in Dumfries and Galloway

We stayed here on our way to the Highlands as a stop over and it was perfect. There was myself, my partner and our 9 year old daughter. Deborah was very welcoming to us after such a long drive, she had prepared a lovely lunch of sandwiches and cake for us and left some milk in the fridge for a very welcome cup of tea and coffee. The place was spotless and had everything we could possibly need. The weather was not fantastic but in the summer the garden would be lovey to sit and relax in. The highlight for my little girl was the jacuzzi bath which was fantastic! The place was very cosy and we easily could have stayed for longer had we had more time in our trip. The beach was very close which was much appreciated by our dog Bella. We will definitely consider staying here again on our next trip to the Highlands.

myself and my family had a wonderful stay in Ayr at Catherine's apartment only downfall was the weather but everything else was fabulous hopefully we will return again soon

A delightful property that met all our needs. Wonderful view of harbour, and rooms thoughtfully designed and furnished to make the most of this. Helpful owner — nothing too much trouble. Comfortable, well equipped and utterly peaceful. Not to mention high quality cafe downstairs.

Absolutely perfect stay! The place was pure luxury relaxing, spotless, and exactly as described in the listing. Everything was thoughtfully prepared and made us feel right at home from the moment we arrived. The attention to detail and comfort was top-notch. Highly recommend this host and would definitely love to return!

The place was great,spotless,peaceful and had great tv. the bed was so comfy,room spotless. the only thing I would say is need a wee lamp in bedroom. all the house was amazingly clean and fresh. Nice touch to have tea and coffee with milk there for us. Sher was easy to contact and replied quickly. would make a great base to travel from. we will return. thanks Sher

The flat suited us perfectly. We know the area well and were lucky to be able to make the booking when our family were staying nearby.

We had an amazing long weekend in Kildonan. The apartment is even better than the photo's, was very clean and had everything you needed. The shower was especially good, wonderful pressure and lots of hot water. We had dinner in the bistro below the apartment and the food was delicious. There are also lovely restaurants in Whiting Bay and Brodrick. It was a wonderful stay and I would highly recommend staying here.

great place would have loved ro soend more time there, we were only there for 1 night but already looking at next year

Two words to describe Bonshaw Grange - "Flawless" and "Perfection." This is no ordinary stay, this is a unique experience that transports you to a magical place. Everything was perfect from start to finish. John was incredible from start to finish, with all the comms, responsive to messages, accomodated all requests. Went above and Beyond, and really contributed to making a 40th Birthday weekend celebration so very special. Everyone was blown away by the house, the gardens, the decor, the facilities - all truly luxe with no expense spared. The love, care and attention to every single detail is evident. I really congratulate John and Dan for creating such an amazing and beautiful space. I want to gatekeep this beautiful place but have already told so many friends & family. The children did not want to leave and already discussing our return and when we can book again and for longer! Truly Outstanding! Thank you so much for Everything!

Gorgeous home and yard! Loved it!

Erin has enhanced the smart, clean accommodation with her beautiful original artwork. The house was equipped with all those extras you either forget or have to shop for, especially in the kitchen. The bed was extremely comfortable and the shower was exceptional. We were pleasantly surprised to find the tv included prime and was easy to use. There was a wealth of local info including a new OS map. Our bikes were safely stored in the garden and parking was ideal, right outside the front door. A real home from home for us! We hope to visit again.

We had an absolute blast at the cottage. It is a special place. It is small but somehow just spacious enough to make our stay very comfortable. The kitchen has all you might ever need and the AGA is magical! The cows outside are very friendly and the walk to the beach is beautiful and convenient. We fell in love with Scotland also thanks to our experience in the cottage. Thank you very much!

I loved my stay in the Studio at Courtyard Cottage it was great from start to finish x Betsey was incredibly helpful with everything and there if I needed anything but gave me privacy too! It was really cosy but felt roomy with everything you need. I loved the old stable features as I ride horses💕 The dog had a great time at the nearby beaches and the Spring Fling in Kirkcudbright was fabulous. I would definitely recommend Betsey’s place and I will be back for sure! Thank you Betsey for a great stay x

A beautiful, well-equipped property in a stunning location. The welcome pack was a lovely addition and perfect start to the following mornings breakfast. The owner came to introduce himself and the girls who tend to the house, are all lovely and attentive. We very much look forward to another holiday at Dunskey estate.

Was such a lovely place to stay! So cosy and comfy! Really felt at home here and the surroundings were so lovely! My wee boy loved watching the horses in the field. Would definitely stay again.

From the moment we stepped through the door, the place was perfection. Everything we needed and wanted was provided for, from the kitchen to the lovely garden. Louise was wonderful to work with and I with not hesitate to stay here again.

2nd time in Port Logan and will definitely be back for a 3rd. The cottage is just beautiful and the views are second to none,. Great hosts and welcome basket was a lovely touch. Had a great time!

Have stayed in a many B&B's, Hotels etc over the years and this is one of the best. Hosts have provided an immaculate, comfortable home away from home. If you want to stay in or near Portpatrick then this is the place. Book it NOW!

what a little Gem this apparently is. I will definitely be stopping here again. It's a fabulous base for visiting the islands or The cities. I managed Isle of Arran, Edinburgh and Glasgow. The beach is literally on the door step and the shops round the corner. Alison is super helpful and very friendly. alround a fantastic 1st experience using Airbnb. I have already recommended this apparment to my friends and family. I can't wait to come back again very soon. 😀

Great host helped me last minute with booking and a lovely little flat everything you need and clean host communicates very well

John was an excellent host - the accommodation was perfect for our workers needs. Highly recommended. Will defo try to book if back in the area.

Three of us stayed for a couple of nights on a golfing trip, the location is excellent with street parking right next to the front door and just a couple of minutes walk from the town centre and to the local pubs and restaurants and the accommodation itself was perfect, with plenty of room. We asked if we could check in early and it wasn't a problem and we were met by Jimmy, who was very helpful in explaining everything that we may need. If you are staying in or around Stranraer, then I recommend you stay at Lorna's place.

David & Tia's place was perfect, everything as described. It is a lovely quiet location, tastefully furnished, and very homely. We were very comfortable and David & Tia are great hosts. They are easy to communicate with and most helpful. We would highly recommend this stay. Thankyou David and Tia

Olena's Appartment is in the best part of town, within walking distance of the beautiful beach and sea and within easy reach of local areas to visit. Olena was so easy to communicate with, replying almost immediately to any questions I had, she met us on check-in and gave us a guided tour of the property and having Olena standing at the door to welcome us with a friendly smile was lovely. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Olena's place and if I visit Ayr again I would certainly book it.
