This is a lovely part of the world and a beautiful estate to stay in. Secluded gardens and great space for our dogs. Unfortunately, going in July meant that we were constantly attacked by midges and hose flies. Around the lake it was unbearable and even walking up the road of an evening was pretty dreadful. They just ruined our stay. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alison K.

Set near the coast with fresh air, lovely gardens, and a tranquil lake, it was the perfect place to unwind. The cottage is tastefully decorated, incredibly comfortable, and extremely well equipped—everything you could possibly need was right there.

Feb 24, 2016 #### Fantastic Family Weekend Our four day stay began with the warm welcome of cake and fresh flowers. The spotless Cutlar's Cottage was perfect for our family break, The comfy ground floor twin room next to the beautiful bathroom suited Granda to a T, a travel cot and high chair was provided for the baby, the kitchen with all mod cons was perfect and the snooker/table tennis room was a bonus. The grounds provide plenty of opportunity for a stroll - even in the rain, and the walks to the beach and around the surrounding countryside were not too taxing. All in all a lovely place to stay. ##### Alan D. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret M. Sep 30, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Beautiful Location My family and I loved our stay at Cutlar's lodge. The house is charming and comfortable. We enjoyed evenings by the fireplace. The grounds are attractively landscaped and maintained. The food shopping at local stores, as recommended by the hosts, was a big success, especially the community store in Auchencairn and Caterbirds in Castle Douglas. It was wonderful to be surrounded by views and a wide variety of walks. We went several times to the dramatic shoreline and the walk above the house. It was good central location for daytrips to Kirckudbright, Threave Gardens, and Caerlaverock Castle. ##### Margaret M.

Apr 29, 2015 #### Fabulous Break Excellent week at Orroland where both the accommodation and the estate were brilliant. We love this area of Scotland and it's great to know that gems like this exist. The lodge is especially good for dog lovers with fantastic walks right from the door and a huge variety of walks just a short drive away. Orroland is only 15 minutes drive away from both Kirkcudbright and Castle Douglas and only half an hour from the Galloway Forest Park (for dark skies experience). Thoroughly recomment Orroland for all lovers of peace and quiet. ##### B R. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Joyce D. Dec 29, 2014 #### Xmas at Orroland A fabulous cottage in beautiful grounds. Warm and comfortable. A warm welcome with thoughtful xmas goodies. Home made mince pies, seasonal hamper of jam, pickle, cheese, chocolates and wine. Decorated xmas tree and floral arrangement . Owners thought of everything. A very nice walk to the shore and lake. Would like to return in the summer. ##### Joyce D. This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent Aug 22, 2022 #### Our second stay at Cutlar's Lodge. This was our second stay at Cutlar's Lodge and the Estate was exactly as we remembered it. The cottage was cosy, clean and had everything we needed, including the large, secure garden. Loved watching the nesting House Martins! The grounds looked fantastic and we were lucky with exceptional weather during this stay. Our 2 young boys loved roaming around the Estate and walks down to the shore (as did the dog!). Had some great days out around Dumfries and Galloway - particularly memorable were the beach at Dhoon Bay and Alpaca trekking near Kirkcudbright. All round, a fantastic week!
