We are a small, dedicated team who pride ourselves on our commitment to our customers and owners. We have worked hard to achieve Feefo Platinum standard for delivering exceptional customer and we will continue to try and adhere to this even during the current crisis. We are trying to be socially responsible & morally fair in discussions with our holiday-makers and cottage owners alike.
We will be contacting all our holiday-makers who are not able to take up their holiday due to the COVID19 restrictions to issue a voucher which will allow them to re-book an alternative date. This is being undertaken on a week by week basis rolling forward. If you have a booking and have not been contacted yet then please be patient, please don’t contact us unless it is more than 7 days after your booked arrival date.
With thousands of bookings across 270 properties and their respective owners to liaise with, it’s a huge jigsaw for us to complete, particularly when we can’t be in the office due to the current restrictions. This does mean that we are not able to respond in our usual quick & efficient way.
Please be assured that we will be in touch as soon as possible and we are very grateful for your support and patience at this time

Free golf at Colvend Golf Club for Mossdale guests
Just a two minute walk to the safe sandy beach at Rockcliffe, the period house dating from 1908 provides spacious furnished holiday accommodation close to Rockcliffe beach and National Trust walking trails. This is an ideal property for a family or groups of friends looking for a comfortable base with no airs and graces so that you can relax at leisure and enjoy the countryside. Apart from the large living room there is a large utility area to the rear of the house containing the washing machine and drier and is ideal for drying beach wear and safe storage of canoes, bikes, golf clubs and wet weather gear.
Rockcliffe is one of the most popular holiday destinations in Dumfries & Galloway. The close proximity of the beach and the secluded garden to the front make this an ideal holiday base. The nearby village of Kippford, the sailing centre for the South West, has two pubs both serving food and there is a delightful walk between Rockcliffe and Kippford along the Jubilee Path through land owned by the National Trust for Scotland. Golf courses abound in the area and the local stage of the 7Stanes Mountain Bike Network is within a fifteen minute drive of the house, with another stage at Mabie Forest, about half an hour by car.

Guest Comments: July 2018 - 4 star review - Loved the property, lots of room, not too posh. Could do with letting holidaymakers know that there is no parking at the house. (note you can park outside to unload, free parking is close by).
June 2018 - 5 star review - My wife and I plus our daughter, her husband, their three lively children (aged 11, 9 and 6) and dog spent an idyllic week ate Mossdale. It was perfectly located and easy for the children to run up and down to/from the beach. The large main room easily accommodated the seven of us for meals and evening games. Three large bedrooms meant the four adults and three children were very comfortable. We didn't need to worry about the children making a mess. Having two bathrooms - one up, one down - was a great help.
