Quiet and peaceful
A very nicely refurbished cottage with all necessary equipment and appliances. 50 metres walk to the mostly deserted beach. Not much to do in Powfoot itself, so driving is essential. Caravan park cafe very good and Powfoot hotel good if you don't have a dog.

Absolutely perfect holiday cottage
Luxury accommodation right beside the sea. The attention to detail in the cottage is amazing- from large comfortable bed and bathroom, to bin bags and cling film! And the icing on this cake is the wood burning stove ! And the impressive views of course . Altogether a wonderful place and we will definitely be back!

Tranquil and homely
Beautiful victorian terrace with all modern conveniences and spotlessly clean. Everything we needed was there in the kitchen and space in garage for the bikes. Awesome jacuzzi bath and beautifully decorated. Handy dishwasher.

Our stay at Shoreside in Powfoot
We chose to stay at Shoreside as my wife and I were celebrating our Golden Wedding Anniversary with a Marriage Blessing at Gretna Green. From the moment we arrived and met Carol to the last moment, our stay was absolutely magical. The property was immaculately presented with plenty of space and comfortable and comprehensive fixtures and fittings. From waking up to spectacular views across the Solway Firth from our bedroom window, irrespective of the weather conditions, walks along the shore and around the pretty village which we and our 2 dogs Toby & Tess thoroughly enjoyed to luxuriating in the bubbles of the spa bath, our whole stay has given many, many memories of a very special trip. We are determined to visit the area again and I would urge others to do the same and give Shoreside a visit,

Family holiday
Fantastic place to stay. powfoot great for dogs and kids. So much to do, did not have to drive anywhere for the 5 days there. There is min golf and bowling on the green next door to street. Our boys loved it there playing. Lots of wood walks and beach is fantastic as well. There is 2 parks and small football field as well.There is the hotel and caravan site along beach road. For food and drink. The cottage is fantastic, so homely. Home from home, our host. Left some lovely treats for boys and milk and cheese, thank you for that. The locals are so nice to talk to. Our oldest son who is austic, has trouble sleeping other places and can be a nightmare. He slept like a log all nights in his own bed. So we had a good night sleep to. We have booked for next year again, for our family holiday. As we enjoyed it so much. I can say the cottage and powfoot is fantastic for austic children. Thank you so much for the best holiday we have had for years ❤️

Everything you needed . Comfy cosy clean with excellant views. Prime location
Loved this place. What a beautiful property and village . The birdwatching is wonderful just from the window. Saw deer on the beach once and every day in the nearby woods and golf course. Played mini golf and bowls every evening. The community have the village immaculate. The beach is incredible. Great base for visiting historic sites. The house is beautiful withcomfy beds , luxery towels and bedding , great powerful shower , good internet and everything you need. Ideal for our wee dog or children with the fenced in front and rear garden , obvious beach and outdoor hose for washing off mud. The addition of a garage meant no dirty or wet outdoor gear in the house.
