Beachfront vacation rentals in Dumfries and Galloway

We loved our stay here. The house was perfect with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. We appreciated the blankets so we felt cozy on the sofa at night and the beds were so comfortable. There were plenty of spaces to park and there is easy access to the beach. A great place for sea glass hunters or if you just want to watch a beautiful sunset. We would definitely recommend Chad’s place. Thank you for a great stay.

100% recommendation for this property. Fantastic hosts, superb accommodation and fantastic surroundings. Looking forward to returning in the near future.

A real find this place, beautiful surroundings fight next to the old harbour and a couple of doors up from the Steam Packet Inn with it's excellent food and micro brewery. Quirkily decorated with an added bonus of a games room made this really stand out. If I had to make a very minor point there was no microwave however we coped very well without. We shall definitely book again to the Smugglers for another short break again very soon.

The cabin was superb, although the midges came out to play every day. You can avoid the worst of them by avoiding dawn and dusk, & using Smidge and Citronella candles. The hot tub was a must although it does take a little getting used to. My tip would be to give yourself plenty of time, use decent quality dried birch logs and use the bubbles to mix the water regularly. Keep an eye on the temperature as it can get REALLY hot. The cabin was great for spotting wildlife - we saw Ospreys, and had a spotted woodpecker eating off the bird feeders, though sadly no red squirrels. One thing worth a mention is that there is a SMALL fish farm just 'round the corner on the Loch. This might put some off, but the Loch was lovely and clear and we swam and paddleboarded without incident. Clachan Inn in Dalry well worth a visit, but be prepared for a very laid back evening - they aren't in a hurry but the food is worth waiting for.

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 excellent stay in Powfoot! The house is much bigger than the pictures and fit 4 adults and 2 children comfortably. The area is fantastic- although we weren’t blessed with the best weather, the proximity to the beach meant we could wander out whenever the sun shone. Carolyn was great at getting in touch and the cottage had everything we needed.

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.

We had a fantastic trip, the accomodation was clean, comfortable and well equipped - meeting all of our needs. Having two shower rooms with shower cubicles was ideal, and there was enough space for the three of us and our hound. The hot tub was such a delight, we enjoyed the simple pleasure of floating around in the open air, watching the swallows dart around in the evening sky. No night-time stars for us on this occasion, but maybe next time. The summer house on the shore was a selling point from the listing photographs, and the views are even better than the photos show. Really comfortable furniture in there, we idled many hours in this cosy space with the tide coming and going. There's a beach to walk the dog along, and a pub a mere five minutes walk away that serves good value meals with excellent customer service (we enjoyed their seafood platter). I even brought my guitar along and joined with the Wednesday Jam Night. We had a delightful time, couldn't have expected any more.

Beautiful two days at the caravan .. Jonathan was so welcoming and showed us round , where to find everything and where we could walk in the park etc . Hot tub was all ready , spent most of my weekend there . Perfect location on the park , just lots of sun , peace and relaxation as was needed . Hope. To be back soon !!

We had a lovely family stay at George & Connor’s caravan. Greeted with a warm welcome, the caravan was spotless, homely and comfortable. Beachfront location, short walk to the central points (entertainment etc) and lots of activities to book and do. We had a great time and will definitely book again.

We had a lovely stay at Gillian’s caravan , it had everything we needed and the communication with Gillian was great .

Brilliant host very easy to communicate with all very easy plus some food stuffs in cupboard can use. Bonus up to 11am check out wee bit of a lie in to. Part of Scotland I've never been to so will definitely recommend and will return.

Spotless, beautifully decorated, smelt so clean and fresh on arrival. Lovely touches like toiletries, tea, coffee, hand wash etc. like a hotel but in a caravan. Beautiful surroundings. Had a BBQ on the beach. Tried the entertainment, arcade, restaurant and all very good. We, as a family of 4, had the very best time. Would highly recommend, Matt was on the end of the phone and everything was made super easy. Will definitely be returning and would suggest to anyone that this is absolutely perfect for a family holiday that you can do as much or as little as you want and matt’s caravan ticked every box. Cannot recommend highly enough. Loved it. Thank you

Fantastic stay at the sea cubby! A perfect place to recharge and relax, with amazing views, wildlife and lovely accommodation. It was a perfect size for us. Additionally, the cubby has been kitted out with helpful items that you need whilst away - tea, coffee, lovely linen and plenty of great local recommendations which we tried out. The place was super cosy as well considering the coastal location. Would love to come back.

What an amazing experience. Communication was fast, accurate and informative. The space was equipped to a very high standard with all you could ever need. The beds were amazing, comfortable with crisp white bedsing. 2 bathrooms were well designed. The garden is gorgeous and the local area has, possibly, some of the best views ive ever seen. Woke up refreshed to birdsong every morning. The welcome pack was generous and appreciated We'll be back!

Our experience at this property in Scotland was wonderful from start to finish. The booking process was straightforward, and our reservation was confirmed almost immediately, making everything effortless. Arriving at the property, however, turned into quite an adventure. We arrived in the evening amid heavy rain, with visibility low, and had to navigate a few remaining potholes along the way (though most had been filled in). Thankfully, we managed to find the key safe, unload our luggage, and settle in for the night. The next morning was a completely different scene. We woke up to clear skies and stunning views across the bay from both the bedroom and the lounge—it was breathtaking. Our first instinct was to get dressed and head straight to the beach for a morning walk, which was the perfect way to start the day. Inside, the house is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean, with attention to detail everywhere. Premium shower gels were stocked in the bathrooms—a thoughtful touch

My friends and I stayed at Cathy's place, the home is actually nicer than the pictures suggested, big table for dining and plenty of places to gather in the house. Plenty space for parking but be aware the road in is single track and narrow. Good location a short walk away from local cafe and pubs.

Great house with amazing views over the coast. The house is very clean and tidy, and has all the cooking equipment required for self catering. There is also an lovely garden with outdoor furniture. Auchencairn is a nice village with excellent coastal and hill walks, as well as a very useful shop/cafe.

if you like a beach front property then this is ideal. Property was as described clean well presented with great outlook.

Birds nest was the perfect place for my parents to stay ( rest of family was nearby) during our holiday in this beautiful spot. The wee cottage is very well equipped and appointed. Due to an oversight on our side we had rather a last min stress which Margaret was quick to help me resolve and she was wonderfully reassuring . A perfect get away spot for any couple or individual! We will certainly be back

Exactly what we needed. The garden was perfect for our 2 dogs. Lovely view over the golf course with the criffel beyond and a minute from the beach. Some very lovely touches left - tea, coffee, biscuits, wine in the fridge and ice in the freezer! The over enthusiastic spaniel popped the football which I assumed was there for their entertainment but we replaced it anyway - just incase!! Lots of games, jigsaws etc so check the draws. Great family place - we booked for our next stay while enjoying this stay! Look out for deer crossing the golf course in the early morning and the bunnies bouncing around. Be back next year.
