Grobdale Bewertungen 

The location is superb and lives up to its reputation lying in the moorland of Galloway Forest, but within 20 minutes easy reach of shops and amenities at Gatehouse of Fleet.
Sarah and Andrew met us on our arrival and she showed us around the Croft, explaining everything. The only thing which took some working out was the heating. In really cold weather the log burner is brilliant.
A great base to explore the surrounding area and experience the lifestyle of a working croft.
Would definitely consider visiting again …

We had a wonderful week staying in the Byre over Christmas.

The cottage is luxurious, comfortable and has everything you could need. The location is as rural as it gets, beautiful views and not a sound to be heard. Lovely local villages and towns to visit and walks/ beaches in abundance

Sarah, Andy and Lauren really go out of their way to make your stay a special one - taking our baby to visit the animals, giving us beautiful hampers, inviting us in for a mince pie

Truly a special place and special people

We stayed in the lovely Byre accommodation for the October holidays, with our 2 children and pup. What can I say? Top notch.
Accommodation was beautiful. Scenery and setting was beautiful. Our hosts Sarah and Andy were amazing, took our two children on daily adventures to the animals, let them get stuck in and have fun on their farm. A holiday my children still speak about and ask when are we going back to Grobdale? Thank you to the Hunter family for memories we will cherish. We hope to visit again soon. (Kids say hi to Jim, and Nora!)

Outstanding. Simply outstanding. A true gem offering cosy, high-quality well-appointed (and very tastefully presented) accommodation in an area of stunning natural beauty. This is a place for getting away from it all. No noise (other than the day-to-day sound of the lovely Hunter family tending to the farm); no light pollution (this is ‘Dark Sky’ country!); no stress. Just downtime in comfortable surroundings, with plenty of walks available if you want to stretch the legs with a bit of a rural safari. Plus the delightful village of Gatehouse of Fleet - with good local amenities - and the Galloway shoreline beyond are only a 20-odd minute drive or so away. So, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend the wonderfully monikered ‘Grobdale of Girthon’- sounds like something from Lord of the Rings… and Lord, is it worth the trip. Thanks, Sarah, Andy and Lauren.

Good people, quality accommodation, farm shop on site, nothing is too much including Christmas tree lights on for our arrival along with a welcome basket. Great to return and try another cottage as we had a bigger group. Sure we will be back again. Thank you.

Lovely place to stay. Very pleased! Top quality facilities! Mountain biking from the door a bonus. Would highly recommend if you want to get away for a week. We will return.

Super accommodation, really well equipped and in an idyllic setting.

A fabulous 5* cottage, location, and owners.
It's a great place if you have a dog as some great walks.
We will be back.

This was our second time at Grobdale and it remains a perfect location for the most relaxing holiday you could want.
Hosts Sarah, Andrew and Lauren ensure that the accommodation is spotless, comfortable and simply just a delight to stay in. Everything has been thought of very carefully, kitchens have all the equipment you could want, beds and bedding are super and the whole property is so lovely to relax in.
We have already booked our next years stay and can see this becoming a regular holiday spot.

We spent an amazing week at Grobdale. Thank you Sarah Andrew and Lauren for providing an opportunity for us to experience staying on your farm and to meet your animals. Our four legged friend became fascinated by the Tamworth pigs and insisted on seeing them every day.
We were accommodated in The Dairy which was extremely comfortable and luxurious. A welcome hamper with local goodies and treats with a toy for our dog were much appreciated.
A log burner with as much wood as needed
Under floor heating
Very well equipped kitchen including air fryer
Huge beds with beautiful linen
Outside furniture and fire pit pit.
It was so peaceful to come back to after a day out. Just the sound of sheep bleating in the distance. Sitting outside surrounded by beautiful scenery untill the sun set. Absolutely blissful.

Grobdale is in a stunning, peaceful location, with easy access to great places for walks and to visit. The Croft is beautifully decorated with everything you need for a self-catering holiday. Sarah and Andrew are lovely hosts and are clearly passionate about the welfare of their animals and sustainability of their farming and the accommodation they offer. Would highly recommend.

We stayed August Bank Holiday week in "The Croft". A one bedroom cottage which is a real home from home experience. You could easily live here permanently. Fantastic view from the picture window. Everything you needed was there, including a coffee machine & air fryer. Comfortable bed & fantastic powerful double shower. The sausage & bacon from the farm shop is great. We even brought some home. The welcome pack was great. The location is literally in the middle of nowhere, although you had the likes of Castle Douglas, Kirkcudbright, Gatehouse of Fleet, Newton Stewart & New Galloway not to far away. Andy, Sarah and Lauren, The owners are never far away & are very friendly people. Certainly recommend a stay if you want a quiet location.

Fantastic week at Grobdale! The Byre was top spec and had everything we needed, the welcome pack was especially appreciated.
Sarah, Andy and Lauren were on hand to provide information when asked, but weren't intrusive at all.
Kids loved getting involved helping out on the farm and asking random questions.
We'll be back!

Thank you so much
for excellent services.
It was smooth process no more hassle.
They very friendly and accommodating.

Right from the start, I knew Grobdale was going to be a special place to make memories again and again ..

My daughter has Sensory needs so finding somewhere suitable for everyone’s needs prior to booking is really important to our family. I can honestly say that grobdale went above and beyond anything I have ever experienced before in terms of customer care and experience. We were treated as individuals right from the second I enquired, and offered a bespoke experience to ensure that my daugher was given the best possible experiences.

A pre-video and photos/sensory story were offered as well as any other bespoke touches which would make our stay more comfortable. Even the cottages have been carefully designed to ensure that sensory overload is kept to a minimum, with a wonderful informative introduction to this should you need it and discussion prior about how the layout could be changed to help adapt to need.

Upon arrival , my little girl recieved a personalised sensory bucket of items which were such a special extra that really made us feel welcomed . Nothing at all during our stay felt too much trouble. Our elderly dog (13) was also treated like a queen and the little touches for her were also fantastic.

My little girl loves to be ‘hands on’ and this is something that Grobdale took in their stride. Everything felt really felt special and second nature to them and like a weight lifted from what would normally be a really stressful holiday lead up and starter:

We had the most magical experience from start to finish and made special memories to last forever - Grobdale has stolen a piece of all our hearts and I know that it will continue to play a special part in the memories that we make as a family in many years to come.

Thank you for everything Team Grobdale - your unique qualities are one of a kind.

Beautiful cottage in peaceful location. Very comfortable super king bed, great shower and fully equipped with everything you might need. One of the best cottages we have had for some time with regard to style and comfort. Owners lovely, helpful when needed but not obtrusive in any way. Would definitely book again.

Everything you could possibly need in a very comfortable cottage. Excellent hosts in a lovely setting

Gorgeous location very peaceful and out of the way . Properties are well designed and provide a pleasant Base to return to each day the welcimbe pack is much appreciated . Sarah ,Andy and Lauren are welcoming and very helpful nothing is too much trouble . The little farm shop sells excellent quality bacon and sausages etc .much to see in the area if you are a fan of the movie the wickerman and even if you are not . Old churches harbours villages and towns lochs to sit by only sound an occasional bird flying overhead . The cafes in gatehouse of fleet dog friendly and all do exceptionally good food. . We hope to return soon all being well x

We stayed in the Byre for a week. Everything about it was amazing. Even bigger and better than the pictures online. We were blessed with beautiful sunshine all week which only enhanced the picturesque setting. Sarah and Andy are fantastic hosts and made us feel very welcome. We (including our dog) loved the walks on the nearest beaches (Mossyard and Dhoon) especially when the tide was out. Our visit to the local Red Kite Centre was fantastic where hundreds of Red Kites are fed daily at 2pm. All within 20-30mins drive from Grobdale. Highly recommend and can't wait to return.
Tina, Andy and Maddie (the dog).

It was first class accommodation, with such lovely hosts. Absolutely perfect in every way.
