Holiday rentals with a patio in Loch Ken

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.

Perfect little stay, felt right at home! Host contacted before the stay with comprehensive directions and check in instructions. Received a message on the day saying we could check in earlier if we wanted (no charge) - this is a rarity! Even went as far as to leave out some chocolate bars :) Highly recommend and would definitely stay again if in the area.

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely apartment. It’s perfectly situated in Gatehouse of Fleet for so many local attractions. We love walking and cycling and so it was a fantastic base for us. There’s off road parking and it’s about 1 minute away from Gatehouse’s Spar grocery shop, which sells so much. Everything has been beautifully and thoughtfully renovated, so that you have all that you’ll need for your stay. We would definitely recommend this property!

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

A beautiful home, everything we needed and super comfortable. The location is walkable to everything & right on the lovely beach. Would definitely stay again if we were in the area. Had a few questions before we arrived & answers were quick. Thanks Emma :) Imogen & Ant

Perfect location for our golf trip. The Caravan was absolutely perfect for the 3 of us. Plenty of space, parking outside, great terrace and facilities in the van were great. Site itself the sports bar was great for when we couldn’t be bothered to go into the town. Joanna as a host was fantastic, went above and beyond to help us and provide recommendations etc for our stay.

Perfect setting for pristine accommodation. The 'container' lodge was impeccably clean, very fresh looking with a cozy but modern vibe to it. Living area sliding doors are a nice touch, well equipped kitchen and all necessary utensils available. Another nice touch was how good the shower was ! The simple things in life ! Hot tub and fire pit area well thought out for both privacy and protection from wind on breezy nights, and like the inside of the lodge also impeccably clean. Highly recommend for escaping from the world for a few days, and will certainly look to book again . Every part hassle free and communication of instructions & help couldnt have been better. A well deserved 10/10

We had a brilliant stay at the Coop! We had travelled down for a swimming competition at Loch Ken, and the flat was perfect for our base over the weekend. Great host, with good communication throughout our stay, would definitely look to booking again in the future if we’re back that direction.

We loved staying here. It is an exceptional setting with stunning views whatever the weather. The cottage is beautifully done out inside and feels like home away from home. You can completely cut off from the outside world and relax and unwind. Absolutely worth the 5 stars and we’ll definitely be booking to go back.

We've been visiting Kippford for many years. This was a really nice caravan in a great location with gorgeous views. The only thing to be aware of is the approach track. It's one of the trickiest parking spots we've encountered in that holiday park, down a steep slope with a bend. Either a fair bit of manouevering to get turned round and reverse down the slope, or drive down and a fair bit of manouevering to turn round to drive up and out. apart from that, all was very good. We certainly enjoyed our stay.

We have just returned from a break at the lodge and it was superb! A gorgeous find where the photos don’t do this justice. Nigel was a fabulous host, communicated well and really friendly. We stayed as a family of four with a 7 year old and 2 year old. Nigel had left a high chair and travel cot for us. The view is fabulous. We made good use of the hot tub and the pool table. The lodge is well equipped, towels for the hot tub and bathroom use, we loved this as saved us so much for packing! There is underfloor heating in the hallway to two bedrooms and the main bathroom that heated the whole lodge, it was super cosy! The kitchen has all you need and the finish in decor and furniture is beautiful. We had a lovely few days out, Mabie farm park is local and great for kids and a walk along the river at dock park. We will absolutely be back and had such a great few days! So pleased we found this place!

We absolutely loved our stay at Ruthwaite Farm. The property is large, spacious and very peaceful. Although the property is large, the design and furnishing means it still feels very cosy and homely. I particularly loved the sofa on the landing area upstairs with views of the mountains. The kitchen is large and very well equipped. There is a large dining table with a big ordnance survey map of the Lake District behind which was extremely helpful (much easier than laying a map out on the table!) and a personal touch that I loved :). The village location is so peaceful and idyllic, and means you get a taste of real Lake District life away from some of the more touristy areas. David is a great host - the most friendly, helpful and responsive host of all airbnbs I have stayed at.

A fantastic place to stay… off the beaten track in and amongst the trees surrounded by nature. Very private! The lodge is well equipped, comfortable, warm and with spectacular gardens. We had a lovely long weekend and even saw a red squirrel a few times doing a nut run. Recommend others going to the Butchers and Fishmongers in Kirkcudbright to stock up. Fantastic produce and a great price! Please note the Sat Nav does NOT take you to the right place so follow the detailed instructions (including photos). You can walk from the Lodge to Rockcliffe and Kippford through the forest which is a stunning walk (perfect for dogs off lead) and takes about 30/40 minutes. Bring your own dishwasher tablets, oil and everything else you might need to cook with.

Spotlessly clean, comfortable, spacious, handy for restaurants and galleries and Kirkcudbright harbour. We really appreciated the excellent folder full of notes and recommendations about trips to make and places to visit etc. Eric and Cathy were unfailingly helpful.

This was our second lovely stay at Gina's and we had a great holiday. Moniaive is a beautiful little village and the cottage is perfect- we even had some sunshine this time so could enjoy the garden! Gina is a great host and made sure we had everything we needed and very kindly left us a little gift to thank us for rebooking. We would love to stay again- thank you Gina!

Honestly one of the nicest Airbnb's I've stayed in - would 100% recommend booking. The cottage itself is gorgeous with everything you could possibly need for a week away, comfy beds, fully equipped kitchen (even an air fryer) and lovely peaceful garden/surroundings. I felt right at home and did not want to leave! It's in a great area with lots to do, whether you like sight seeing, hiking or days at the beach. I will definitely be looking to book here again in the future!

James was always very quick to respond.

An absolutely amazing stay, Adrian and Stefania were so welcoming and even hung up some decorations for my partners birthday as we went up to celebrate! Such a friendly couple and so informative and attentive by alerting us when there were interesting animals in the gardens to see. Just all round fantastic experience and the annexe was so stunning and felt right at home 🫶🏻 Most definitely would go again! ☺️

What a fabulous find! The Studio is perfect in all ways. The kitchen is well equipped and easy to use. The bathroom is great - lovely shower!! The bed is so comfortable meaning a great nights sleep. The view from the large picture window is stunning and the sunsets amazing. Thank you Janice, a wonderful stay and a lovely welcome with the goodies you provided. Definitely a place we would stay again.

Fantastic stay at Caroline & Frank's place - definitely a WOW moment as we stepped through the front door! 4 large en-suite bedrooms ideal for our 4 couple group (3 family generations aged 24-80), beds mega comfortable. Bright & spacious living room with well stocked board games cupboard (loved the seats in the windows), separate dining room, kitchen has everything you need for self-catering. Beautiful patio & garden area with a tennis court which my 80 year old Dad loved as he hadn't held a tennis racket in decades. Short drive to Troon, plenty of restaurants & tourist attractions in the surrounding area. Highly recommend and hope to be back at some point !

James was very attentive and friendly. When we had a problem he arrived within minutes. The flat was spacious and had recently been modernised with new kitchen and bathroom. We chose this accommodation as we were at the Jazz Festival and were only a few minutes away from the venues and the town centre. Have no reservations in recommending this accommodation

Wow! Where to start? I took a long time looking around to find the perfect last-minute break away for us. My wants really should have been impossible at the price we paid. However, it was absolutely perfect and fit our needs completely. it's a beautiful little property that is spotlessly clean The king-size bed is so comfy and it has all the amenities you could want. The spa bath unit with all the additional functions is just incredible. location is perfect. You can walk to restaurants and shops easily and there are so many lovely places to visit close by. Richard and Davina are wonderful hosts. I can't recommend this property enough. Thank you for an amazing stay.

We were met by Tracy, who took time to explain all the features of the flat, which was excellent. It was very well stocked with just about everything we could think of, and the seating was very comfortable. Our stay was as good as we could wish, and the help with our luggage was much appreciated (we are in our 70's)

The place is in walking distance to the town centre and it is a good drive to the Lake District. Would recommend staying here 😊
