Fleetbank Reviews

Jacqueline
Lovely house in a beautiful situation for exploring the beauty of Galloway. Tastefully decorated with plenty of space & bathroom facilities for our party of seven. Welcome pack excellent & very useful. Hot tab a real standout! When an issue arose with a bedroom doorlock the owners were very quick to help us. Dishwasher too small for large party we'd have preferred a full size dishwasher to a washing machine. Especially when the dishwasher could only take three of the large, rimmed dinnerplates at a time.
Shaunna
Lovely property, beautifully restored. Good location next to shops & places to eat, nice walks nearby . Just wish it was kingsize beds in the ensuite bedrooms . Hooks for dressing gown at hot tub would be good. Would definitely return
Beautiful house. As I'm from an interior back ground there was a few things. Missing from bedrooms more storage tv in rooms a console unit with mirror and chair in the main bedroom upstairs for doing your hair and makeup. Sorting out the curtains mainly upstairs they need lined .shortened and make in to eyelets. Nasty mark in top bedroom carpet looked like a pooh stain needs attention. Back garden has holes were our big dog kept escaping we had to up chairs around to make it safe. Couldn't find ironing board. Could do with a bigger fridge and freezer. Parking outside the house was like winning the lottery .mainly people going to the ship for food would park in front of the house and think nothing of it. Was very impressed with the good bedding and mattresses and towels.and shower products used. Sofas were nice apart from horrible nylon covers over them. For the price there is a few things that need to be done to be 5 star rating.
Corinna
