May 14, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fantastic find Bird watchers paradise, 14 different types of bird in one morning. The cottage was perfect, the hosts where friendly and informative. The user manual was extremely comprehensive. There was every thing you need in the form of utensils. With comfy beds. Well positioned for everything we wanted to do. Dumfries House is a joy to visit, the Isle of Arran, beautiful, don’t bother taking a car over just use the buses to get right around the island. So many superlatives to use about our week and not one miserable person, everyone very helpful and friendly. ##### John W. Stayed 7 nights in May 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Lesley A. Jun 12, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy #### Fabulous stay The Cart Shed is a really lovely place to stay with beautiful surroundings. It had everything we needed. The owners were friendly and helpful without being intrusive. We had a comfortable and relaxing stay. It was amazing to sit on the sofa looking out into the garden watching the woodpeckers, squirrels and chickens coming and going. Our elderly dog had a lovely time and wasn’t bothered about the chickens but a more lively dog might be difficult to manage as the garden isn’t fully enclosed. We loved it and would definitely like to return. ##### Lesley A.

Excellent base for visiting friends and family. We were not expecting such a great welcome pack! Best welcome pack by far. The place was clean and most things we required were there. we did not expect the wildlife in the garden on the first morning. We thought the owners were slowly releasing the animals/birds for us to enjoy. First we heard the woodpecker and then the lovely birds on the bird feeder, then a squirrel and then the hens came round and then there were ducks. (they seem to love the feeders). I didn't realise how peaceful it was watching birds in the garden. It was lovely the daffodils were out in the garden. The kids enjoyed playing with their dogs. Our dog loved watching out of the windows. despite the 8 hour journey time I usually don't sleep well anywhere for the first few nights. But we all slept amazingly well. The cart shed has been thought out really well with solar powered and spring water. The kids tried out the jacuzzi bath a few times loved it!!! Alex was very helpful in suggesting places for dogs and kids to visit. Dumfries grounds, Culzean country park, Ayr beach. All great!!! ##### Ani This review comes from a trusted partner site and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret Mar 31, 2019 #### W We had an excellent week, the location is perfect! ##### Margaret ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Holiday Inn Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Glasgow-Airport.h809324.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [Mercure Northampton](https://www.expedia.ca/Northampton-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Northampton-Town-Centre.h12543.Hotel-Information) > > [Old Course Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Andrews-Hotels-Old-Course-Hotel.h522846.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton by Hilton Hamilton Park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Hampton-By-Hilton-Hamilton-Park.h33810078.Hotel-Information) > > [The Green Hotel Golf & Leisure Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Kinross-Hotels-The-Green-Hotel-Golf-Leisure-Resort.h1130671.Hotel-Information) > > [Pinewood Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Ibstock-Hotels-Pinewood-Lodge.h17183221.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Bloc Hotel London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Bloc-Hotel-London-Gatwick-Airport.h6594190.Hotel-Information) > > [Heated indoor pool & spa, countryside holiday cottage near the beach & park](https://www.expedia.ca/Hastings-Hotels-Heated-Indoor-Pool-Spa.h18971402.Hotel-Information) > > [Hilton London Gatwick Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Hilton-London-Gatwick-Airport.h20753.Hotel-Information) > > [Bonkle House](https://www.expedia.ca/Wishaw-Hotels-Bonkle-House.h15996183.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [Windermere Manor Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Windermere-Manor-Hotel.h22280374.Hotel-Information) > > [Travelodge Gatwick Airport Central](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Travelodge-Gatwick-Airport-Central.h10160516.Hotel-Information) > > [Uig Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Portree-Hotels-Uig-Hotel.h2261957.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Hamilton by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Hamilton.h1889137.Hotel-Information) > > [Luxury Beach House Rental with Hot Tub, 30 meters to Beach](https://www.expedia.ca/Looe-Hotels-Luxury-Beach-House-Rental-With-Hot-Tub.h27313935.Hotel-Information) > > [The Stirling Highland Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Stirling-Hotels-The-Stirling-Highland-Hotel.h558482.Hotel-Information) > > [The Harlow Hotel By AccorHotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Harlow-Hotels-The-Harlow-Hotel-By-AccorHotels.h950.Hotel-Information) > > [Radisson BLU Hotel Durham](https://www.expedia.ca/Durham-Hotels-Radisson-BLU-Hotel-Durham.h2226171.Hotel-Information) > > [Days Inn by Wyndham Hamilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Hamilton-Hotels-Days-Inn-By-Wyndham-Hamilton.h3924670.Hotel-Information) > > [JA Mar Hall Scotland](https://www.expedia.ca/Bishopton-Hotels-Mar-Hall-Golf-Spa-Resort.h1077249.Hotel-Information) > > [Park Inn by Radisson Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Park-Inn-By-Radisson-Peterborough.h2254377.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express Glasgow Airport by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Paisley-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Glasgow-Airport.h519994.Hotel-Information) > > [Unique Luxury Escapes](https://www.expedia.ca/Diss-Hotels-Unique-Luxury-Escapes.h29745570.Hotel-Information) > > [Atholl Palace Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Pitlochry-Hotels-Atholl-Palace-Hotel.h63637.Hotel-Information) > > [Perle Oban Hotel & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Oban-Hotels-Perle-Oban-Hotel-Spa.h993007.Hotel-Information) > > [The Garrison](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-William-Hotels-The-Garrison.h24101351.Hotel-Information)
