Although it wasnt really cold, we had to light the fire. Nothing better on a dark night, windy night. Loved looking through the pictures of the cottage renovation.

A historic cosy cottage in the town centre convenient for the shops, restaurants, trains and buses which we used often during our week stay and was the main attraction of booking this place. High standards of cleanliness and maintenance of the property.

This cottage felt so special. It's been lovingly restored to It's current condition. So beautiful and steeper in history and character. We were lucky enough to be staying over New Year and the place was decorated so beautifully. Picture perfect. Felt like we were in the movie 'The Holiday'. It's a wonderful gem of a place to stay. Amazing welcome pRead moreack from the owners of wine and cheese and cake, we were honestly blown away. Location amazing. Just had such a memorable time. Sitting in front of the fire with wine and cheese. Holiday heaven. Perfect wee place. Would 100% recommend and return. Hide

This is the second time we have stayed in the property, both occasions were very enjoyable. The property is beautiful and situated in a fab location. We had a slight issue with the shower, on contacting the owner it was rectified immediately and we were given a complimentary bottle of wine. We will definately book Bagdale Cottage again.

THE COTTAGE IS FABULOUS. THE LOCATION IS UNFORTUNATE, SET BELOW A BUSY ROAD AND ONLY SIX FEET AWAY. ALSO IMMEDIATELY BEHIND A BUSY /NOISY PUB. MAIN PROBLEM IS THAT PARKING IS A NIGHTMARE !!
