Every effort is made to ensure guests are made as comfortable as possible and I recommend them to all my friends who are planning a holiday in this part of the country. I am flexible with my trips and... More

It was a bit of a last minute decision to visit Dumfries and it was a case of Lucky Dip that we stayed here. But it was an excellent choice. The hotel is close to the centre and train station but also has plenty of car parking available. The owners were very welcoming and their passion for hospitality shone through.... More

We stayed for 1 night to break up our long trip from the Midlands to Oban and chose this B & B based on the good reviews. We weren't disappointed as the place was lovely and clean and cosy. We were warmly welcomed by the owners and shown to our room which had a large bed and a huge en-suite,... More

Well, where to start with this one? I think I've stayed in anywhere worth staying in by now in this wonderful little town, and you will do a lot worse, and I sincerely mean a lot worse than this wonderful establishment. Situated a comfortable 5 minute stroll from the centre of town, it's an easy and comfortable walk to get... More

Wow!!! I arrived at the hotel very late at night and was greeted by very friendly staff member. The room was outstanding! Spotlessly clean with anything you could want. Anything that wasn't available I am sure staff would get! A bar is available at the hotel with a lovely beer garden, sadly I was not able to use these facilities... More
