"We had a wonderful family holiday in this beautiful house, it was spotlessly clean and comfortable, we were greeted with box of chocolate biscuits, tea, coffee, milk and lots of other condiments as well as lot's of lovely apples."
The garden was really pretty, plenty of space in the house and the garden for everyone to enjoy.
The owner was very attentive and communication was great. We would really recommend staying here and wouldn't hesitate to come back.
Jason, thank you for a terrific review. It was a pleasure having you stay - and yourself and family will always be welcome back.

"Berryburn was absolutely perfect for our group - a mix of adults and kids celebrating a birthday for the weekend."
The place was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Set in beautiful enclosed gardens where we felt confident letting the children run free. Communication from the owner was 10/10. Would highly recommend.
Thank you so much Andy. Yourself and family will always be welcome back. Property Owner

"House and gardens beautiful, full of character and provided all we needed and more for our stay as a family of 9, spanning 3 generations."
Communication with owner Bradley was excellent both before and after the stay. Many positives we could share but probably most fitting is to say this was our first visit to Berryburn and within 24 hours of leaving, we had booked our return for the summer!
Dear Louise and James. thank you for a wonderful review. You were the first guests to visit Berryburn after seven months of the house being closed - and I am over the moon that you have decided to return
Take care

"We had a lovely weekend at Berryburn."
The house has been beautifully restored and is really well equipped with plenty of toys and games for our grandchildren. We all enjoyed the beautiful gardens and loved watching the wildlife in the surrounding countryside. It was lovely to relax in the evenings round the large dining table, then by the fire in the lounge. I would suggest that the back staircase needs a gate, as its not suitable for toddlers.
Thank you Rosemary for your lovely comments. I'm so glad you enjoyed the house and gardens. Property Owner

"We had a great stay at Berryburn it’s an ideal property for a family get together."
The house has a lived in feeling and you feel relaxed from when you step in the front door and it was great for the six grand kids ,between the games room packed with games and the outside space for the kids to run about and play on the swings and play football on the lawn , a wooden playhouse in the bottom garden also equipped with outdoor toys for the kids. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you could possibly need especially as we were a party of 10 adults and six grand children.The dining room was a great room for us all to sit ,eat and have a breather and a few drinks . The main sitting room was big enough for all the adults to relax when the kids eventually got to bed . Overall we had great couple of days away in a comfortable period house and the owner could not do enough for us and was on the other end of the phone for any queries. Overall great place to stay for a family get together in a lovely setting and lovely to watch the rabbits on the lawn.
Bradley has thought of everything to cater for everyone’s needs adults and children alike even placing bowls of apples in various rooms throughout the house which were delicious by the way!

"Large house which served our family well for a holiday venue after a wedding."
Lots of lovely rooms and great dining room to share family meals. We tried a barbecue one evening but it was windy and so moved into the house. The host was readily available and helpful. The Station pub was nearby and we walked- food was very good and we had preordered for the Sunday evening. Our other recommendation for eating out was The Crown and Thistle at Rockcliffe. Lots to see in the area.

"Berryburn House is the perfect venue for a group of friends/family to get together."
Our group of 10 were more than happy with the space, comfort and facilities on offer. The house is spacious, spotlessly clean and lots of outdoor space. While the house itself is set in a peaceful area it’s less than 10 minutes drive to Gretna. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay and would have no hesitation in recommending it to others.
Thank you Susan for your lovely review. I do hope at some point in the future you will be able to return as you will always be welcome. Property Owner

"Ideal property for family holiday."
We were a group of 10 including 4 young children and 2 dogs. The house is roomy and the games room has plenty of games to keep children amused. The dogs loved the freedom of the large enclosed garden. Gretna is close by and easy to get to with a good choice of carryouts which at a time like this is a bonus. Plenty of places to enjoy for all in the area. Easy access to the Lake District which we love. Bradley, the owner, we found very helpful and friendly.

"This house was truly excellent & worked really well for our family (9 people) gathering."
It is extremely well stocked with everything you could possibly want. We would all now happily recommend this house to anyone & all the 6 bedrooms worked very well with 5 of them having excellent en-suite facilities. ALL the 3 log burner stoves worked really well & we did use all of them! The heating & hot water both worked very well at all times. A real 10 out of 10 score from our 3 x Clans for every aspect of our 4 day weekend. A big thank you to Bradley (Owner) for this. He was available at any time for contact if needed. (We did not, but knowing he was there at the end of a mobile was great comfort).
Thank you so much for this wonderful experience & we would all happily return anytime, if we could. Kind regards & best wishes - Steven Kennedy (Huddersfield).

"We had a great holiday at Berryburn even though we arrived with the storms."
A nice gesture was the owner checking we were all ok after the gales. Thank you Bradley. We booked the holiday for my daughters 40th birthday surprise, she was even more surprised when she saw the beautiful 4 poster bed and the size of the bedroom and on suite. The house had everything you would want, the grounds were lovely and the children enjoyed the wendy house slide and the swings. I would recommend Berryburn to any family or group of friends wanting a lovely house to get together.

"What a fabulous house and grounds."
Very well equipped inside and out! We were a group of kids 4/6 up to 75 year olds and 2 large dogs. The kids loved the play areas outside and the games in the play room and snug. We had many great nights around the massive dinning room table finishing with a few drinks in the sitting room with its very welcoming log fire. Brendan was great, answering any queries we had very promptly. We were very lucky with the weather with beautiful sun rises and sunsets with not a cloud in the sky, even though it was only about 5 degrees we sat out on the lawn looking over the farm land watching a rabbit or two with a Prosecco or two!
Can not praise this property highly enough.

"The garden was wonderful and the grandchildren had many happy hours playing there."
The barbeque was great too.
The bedrooms had en suite bathrooms or access to an adjacent bathroom.
The location is handy for the newly refurbished Station pub which does good pub food.
We visited Birdoswald on Hadrians wall an the grandchildren loved dressing up in Roman costumes.
We also visited the Tullie museum in Carlisle, well worth a visit and easy parking in the castle car park.
The castle at Caerolock was good too.
Managed to get in a bit of carp fishing near Annan.

"This superb country manor is an absolute gem."
Beautifully manicured garden as you enter the imposing gates but once through you enter a property suitably and tastefully restored to former glory. We hired this for my partners 50th birthday celebrations with life-long friends, who dipped in and out throughout the week. The property was exactly what we needed and so peaceful - even with a houseful. The kitchen is well equipped with everything you need. The 2 living areas are tastefully decorated and give guests the freedom to find a tranquil space. There is also an extensive book library for even the most prolific reader! Bedrooms and ensuite’s are so beautifully decorated. Bed linen was spotless and pristine white! So much to do in the area too. From The Burns Trail to Bike trails and from beaches to forests! Something for everyone! 5/5

"As a family of 10 ranging in age from 9 months to 80 we had a lovely stay at Berryburn."
The house is exactly as described but the shop and pub nearby have now closed so you could do with updating the info. (Not that either mattered to us)
The *real* fires In ground floor rooms are great and throw out plenty of heat.
The only complaint I can think is the WiFi isn’t very good at all

"Although quite secluded, Berryburn is situated in an area which is easy to access from all parts of the country via motorway links."
This made it a perfect venue for an adult family get together in a splendid Victorian house set in peaceful surroundings. The house was occupied full to capacity, but the huge rooms allowed everyone to either congregate, or to find their own space.
Despite the unpredictable October weather, our memories will be of spending warm comfortable evenings in front of the log fires. Good company, good food and drink, much love and laughter.
Perfect!
