Family-friendly holiday rentals in Newton Stewart

We had a lovely stay with our 3 dogs at heron view, we enjoyed the spacious living area and comfortable beds. The utility space was a great nook for the dogs if they were wet from walking. Lovely local pub (the Masonic) with friendly people and bar staff. The hot tub was a massive bonus! Thanks Donald We will be back!

Lizzie was a fantastic host, she responded to messages and even allowed us to extend our stay into the afternoon. The house was lovely we will definitely look at booking again in the new year. Thank you

What an incredible stay have had - the cottages are just incredibly beautiful The location perfect for exploring - on the door step are waterfalls - routes up to old man Coniston and the lakes Cottage was spotless, warm and cosy - would highly recommend !!’

Thank you Lisa and Mark for a lovely stay to attend The Lakesman triathlon. Being walking distance into Keswick proper, but slightly out of the ‘hubbub’ of the town was ideal for us. Your responsiveness and proactivity on communication made the weekend for us. Thank you again 💚🙏🏽

What a wonderful stay - Diane was so helpful with her information Nothing was too much trouble Eggs delivered ready for breakfast Views stunning from Garden and hot tub All round just great

What an amazing place! Susan’s home was lovely and located on a beautiful dairy farm. We were immediately welcome by her cats Lucky and Clover (who we adopted for our stay). Susan was always available to answer our questions and took us on a tour of the farm to meet the cows. The house was about 7 minutes from a great village called cockermouth which had pubs, restaurants and many bakeries. A little further and you are in keswick which is one of the bigger towns. We took a boat from there across derwentwater to the famous Catbells and also took a rowboat out on the lake. We also went for a beautiful walk around buttermere lake and a hike into the borrowdale valley. And we even popped over the border into Scotland. It was an amazing trip and a wonderful place to stay. Thank you Susan!!

The stables exceeded our expectations, and Margaret was an incredible host! already looking for when we can come back and visit again, this place is amazing!

The Mouse House, is great accommodation for two people. It has everything you need to enjoy your stay and it is warm and cosy . The outstanding feature of the property is its location, we parked the car when we arrived and never touched it until we left . The view from the cottage is fantastic looking straight across to Cat Bells , which is just over an hours walk from the front door to the summit. The Swinside pub is an 20 minute walk. If you’re into walking the fells of Newlands then this is prefect.

Absolutely stunning location!! The best in the entire Lake District! The Buttery is beautifully laid out and decorated, with possibly the best equipped kitchen I've ever seen in an airbnb. The knives are sharp, there's good quality cookware and even a dishwasher! The bed is super comfortable, and the bath is lovely and deep, and the freezer compartment in the fridge actually keeps things frozen! The livingroom/diningroom area is lovely, super comfortable sofa and a fold out diningtable. We ate outside most of the time, but this was much appreciated for when the midges descended! All the info you could possibly need is provided in the welcome folder, and Jella lives right next door and is always happy to help out with anything. The stunning Devoke Water is only a 15 minute walk away, and you can easily climb the seat (big hill) next to it for amazing sunsets. I could see the Isle of Man from up there! I couldn't recommend this place enough! We're already planning the next trip!

Another great week at Hightae

Lovely spacious cottage with enclosed garden in a beautiful setting. Great for the dog with a useful dog walking field in the campsite on the farm. We were only there for two nights but we enjoyed a visit to the nearby castle which has lovely gardens and grounds.

On the outside it looks like your average home but when you go inside its perfect, very spacious and the photos were beautiful and they even provided us with some biscuits to enjoy with a cuppa in the morning, which we has outside in the back garden enjoying the sun and sounds of sheep😊 absolutely lovely! and the shower is top notch, very good shower! 😂 beds were comfy and so was the sofas! thank you for letting us stay :))

The cottage was absolutely lovely, it is spacious and really comfortable particularly the sofas and bed. Everything is spotlessly clean and Penny is a superb host. The cottage is a joy to spend time at and it also has a lovely enclosed garden and you can see down to the bay. Penny and her husband Archie are really friendly, helpful hosts and there is also lots of information about things to do on the beautiful island of Arran. We had a fantastic holiday. Thank you

We stayed for a month to work remotely and explore the local area. It’s a beautiful cottage with amazing outside space - we often worked outside on the upstairs terrace! Great location in the centre of town but still felt private. We had a couple of issues over the month but Alan was extremely responsive and did what he could to resolve ASAP. We would definitely return!

We were only passing through Moffat and arrived later than expected so didn’t have much time to enjoy. Had everything we needed including a very comfortable bed. Ideally situated, about a one minute walk to the centre of town. Would highly recommended.

We absolutely loved our Christmas at Seaglass Cottage. The hosts were great, answered any questions, gave us detailed instructions for check-in and even put up a Christmas tree and decorations for us. We were very lucky with the weather, enjoying walks along the beach right outside, we even found some seaglass (we felt like children!). The property was very clean, the bedding smelled so fresh, the kitchen had everything you might need, very clean bathroom and handy downstairs loo. Every evening we would sit in the cosy conservatory enjoying a glass of wine, watching the sun go down, people walking along the beachpath with their dogs and then into the lounge for a real log fire. It was perfect and we can't wait to return!

We had such a lovely eater weekend at lodge 54. The park is gorgeous and the lodge has everything you need. All the home comforts! The pool was great and the kids loved it. Lots to do in the surrounding area, we loved it. Kippford is definitely worth a visit. We had a meal at The Anchor and breakfast at the tea rooms there. Would highly recommend. The place is beautiful, as is all of the surrounding area. We are already planning our next visit.

Highly recommended. We had an amazing stay. Thank you.

What a lovely, lovely place to stay. The lodge manages to be both cosy and spacious at the same time. There are three really nice bedrooms plus three bathrooms and the main living space is big, with plenty of space for lounging, reading, playing games or watching the tv after a day at the beach. The thing I always love when I go to stay anywhere is great bedding and the lodge was not a disappointment! The downstairs double bed had the most incredible duvet, huge and fluffy and warm - lovely for lying in bed in the morning looking at the great view from the french doors with a cup of tea. We used the swimming pool, using the booking system, which was nice. You book a session in the pool, which you have for your own use during your session. Having the pool to ourselves was a bit of a treat! There is a lovely pub on site too, although we sat outside due to the current situation, we went in to order drinks and it was really nice inside. Though no local beer, which would have been nice. The lodge is within walking distance of a really amazing, amazing beach - just beautiful. You can do lots of really great walks from the lodge, along the beach or the coastal walk, as well as through the many lovely forests in the area. We were lucky enough to see red squirrels! Despite some slight issues with communication (down to a problem with technology and not on their part) we had a wonderful time and are very much looking forward to returning. We would really recommend Barend as a wonderful place to visit, the lodge was absolutely gorgeous (did I mention the amazing duvet?!) and just a few minutes walk from the most incredible beach. A perfect trip away. We will absolutely be making a return trip

Great place to stay with families with dogs.Kids loved it and didn't want to go home.Great for relaxing our being more active,would definitely stay again maybe try the summer this time.

Peaceful, private, spacious. Walking distance to beach, shop, restaurant. Kitchen is well equipped. We loved our stay here. Fits 8 comfortably.

We had an absolutely superb stay at this cabin! The hosts have thought of everything—every household utensil, cleaning product, and appliance we needed was readily available. It truly felt like a home away from home. We also appreciated the thoughtful extras, like the collection of games, DVDs, and books, which made for cozy evenings indoors. The stuffed toy dogs were a lovely touch for the children, and they adored them! The cabin was spotless, and we were impressed with how well-organized everything was, including the garbage disposal system. The private pool was a fantastic addition, and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. Overall, this was one of the best stays we’ve had, and we wouldn’t hesitate to return. Highly recommend!

Great cabin, very clean and well stocked with everything we needed. The sofa was so comfortable we all fell asleep several times! It’s very quiet on the site which is nice and the views of the loch are lovely. The site is in a great location with the loch just a short walk away where you can enjoy a short walk round & you can also fish. The beach is a short drive away with lovely soft sand and there’s a few shops & restaurants nearby. The on site pool is available for private hire which was fantastic, we loved it. We also ate at the beagle pub which was really nice, plenty to choose from and there was colouring stuff, books & games for the kids which they enjoyed. Really reasonably priced meal as well. Would really recommend & would come again ☺️

Lovely clean lodge and lovely area for a short stay!!
