5 stars = Culmore Bridge Cottages

Reviewer: Lisa Emslie from Aberdeenshire, Scotland

Review

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this beautiful cottage. It was well equiped, spacious and definitely wheelchair friendly. The surrounding area was beautiful - a lovely beach just a mile away. Port Patrick is beautiful, and there is lots to do. Castle Kennedy is definitely worth a visit - although some of the gardens are not accessible in a wheelchair. We would definitely recommend these cottages to anyone - they are ideal for a relaxing, quiet break - and there is plenty to do for those looking for a more active holiday.
