Coming from Townsville in Australia, we found the Mull a tad cold... ummm... tad more than tad... stronger word comes to mind but not on here. Cottage was impeccable... every conceivable item had been thought of... minus just a few... wonderful kitchen and mod cons... wonderful living room... couches to die for... open fire... great bed... etc. etc. My partner...

Thank you for your review on Auld Smiddy Cottage. The weather all over Scotland was really windy the week you were here and our television reception was the same - out of our control. We provide Wi fi access up at our house - East Muntloch Croft B & B - and cottage people on holiday are welcome to come... More

Like many who have written reviews before us, we can honestly agree that the photos of Auld Smiddy on their website, http://www.mullofgalloway.co.uk/self-catering-scotland-sleeps-2-couple.html, really don’t do it justice...and I know my pics don’t either. Needless to say, I fell in love with Auld Smiddy at first sight. Deceptively small and quaint from the outside, the renovations and interior design have been... More

Thank you for review re: Auld Smiddy Cottage. We have no control over the weather and the week you were at the cottage was a really wild, windy week all over Scotland. We are really disappointed that you didn't come up and let us know if you had any problems during the week and on your leaving date you advised... More

We stayed in the Auld Smiddy - and other reviews have said it all. It is more like staying in a friend's house that a holiday let, absolutely brilliant place. And what a location - amazing walk to the Mull of Galloway lighthouse and RSPB reserve along east and west coasts; and wildlife watching from the conservatory as the sun... More

We were married at Gretna on the 16th February, and had booked Auld Smiddy as our romantic getaway for the following week. Arriving on the 17th, and staying until just the 23rd, we wished we had booked longer away from work, to allow us to stay that bit longer. On arrival, the door was unlocked, we went in to find...

We have just returned from a most enjoyable week in the beautiful Mull of Galloway. Our break away from the hustle and bustle of city life was all the more enjoyable due to staying in the delightfully quaint and cosy Auld Smiddy Cottage which exceeded our expections. Situated in lovely open countryside with fabulous views of the sea it was... More

This was our second stay with Diane and John at East Muntloch. We had stayed for one night in June on a coastal trip and was suitably impressed that we booked a couple of nights earlier this month for a longer stay and to take in more of the Rhins and the Mull of Galloway including a visit to the...

Unfortunately East Muntloch Croft could be easily overlooked if you are trying to track down good places to stay on the Mull of Galloway. In preparing for this review I tried various entries in Trip Advisor including Drummore, Mull of Galloway and "East Muntloch Croft" but could only gain access to the TA entry via the B & B's own...

A wonderful, charming cottage with everything one could ever need. Great reception from Diane who helped us in finding suitable visits in the area. Warm, peaceful place to come back to after a day out. Highly Recommended.

We had a fortnight at the start of August in this lovely cottage, and it was just what we wanted. Well-appointed, comfortable and surprisingly homely. Anybody who sets out for the Rhins of Galloway will expect a vista of gently hilly country set about with cliffs and sea views - so being able to enjoy it from the conservatory is... More

We have just returned from a week in this beautiful cottage. It was everything we hoped for and more. The cottage is a lot bigger than it looked in the pictures. It has a very well equipped kitchen (even with a blender) and the views from the conservatory are amazing, you can watch cows and sheep as well as birds... More
