Lovely apartment, just a short walk from Kirkcudbright centre. The apartment is very well equipped, with everything you need for a comfortable stay, bed was really comfortable and it was very quiet.

The extremely helpful owner. How clean and well kept the property was.

Suggestions NOT dislikes. Check cups, towels for occupancy - there were 4 of us and 2 towels, 2 cups, randomly only 3 forks 😊

This was once a residential care facility that is being retro-fitted as seven individual flats, using modern fixtures and neat furniture - much from IKEA. And they really are self-contained and could be lived in long term - and come equipped with kitchen basics in terms of both tools and the kinds of ingredients you don't want to buy at every stop: pepper, oil, tea, coffee, milk, sugar. There's a full stove, dishwasher, and a smart TV. It's a very nice development and in a wonderful position, within walking distance to all that downtown Kirkcudbright has to offer - with two supermarkets, multiple take-out food outlets, countless galleries, and lovely gift and flower shops. If you're coming for a family occasion, call ahead to Lily Knowles Flowers and ask for Adele. Access is by easy electronic codes and a lockbox for the key, so arrival times are flexible - which can be a blessing given how hard it can be to predict cross country trips in Scotland. Kirkcudbright is also the home of Scottish Photography Hides which is well worth checking out for their award worthy professional photography opportunities. Just a neat location overall.

The storage heaters were a bit of a mystery to operate, even with a manual. And the listing is 100% accurate in that it has a washer only - which may be limited in the winter months when drying clothes on a rack might be slow - unless you travel with the lightest of travel clothing. (However, if you're meeting family in the area this might not be a problem, and there's also a coin laundrette in the town center - but check the hours as they close quite early.) As it gains popularity, parking may be easier on-street than in the front courtyard - but street parking seems safe at this location.

Comfortable, everything we need and great location within easy walk to shops/pubs etc

Brand new studio with comfortable bed and lots of space

Could not find manuals

We stayed for 4 nights and used the accommodation as a base to explore the beautiful area. For this purpose the accomodation was perfect. Easy walk into the town which had everything you need. Very clean and tidy with all the appliances and utensils etc that you need. This meant we could have the freedom to cook or eat out and even better to be able to wash our clothes especially as we were travelling for a long time. We had some trouble working the washing machine but our host communicated quickly.

We struggled to work out how to use some of the appliances so a suggestion would be to have an instruction book to help. Especially for international travellers who aren't used to these brands. Also a dryer or clothes rack would be good to hang the clothes to dry.
