After a gruelling ascent of the Nick of Balloch on National cycle route 7 we descended to Bargrennan and were greeted by Nicola like long lost friends. She was brilliant and soon had us ensconsed in the little cottage beside the pub which was immaculately clean. Our bikes were neatly locked away in a little dry shed next to the... More

We've been to the House o'Hill last March. After being welcomed at the bar, we were told the hotelrooms were being renovated. Instead of a room we where offered the cottage next to the hotel at no extra charge. One of the employee's helped us out planning our trip for the next day (due to weather-conditions we had to abandon... More

In a field of potatoes, this one really stood out. Nicola aka Tattie (or more formally Miss Potato) was above and beyond the perfect front of house - who else hugs the guests as they pedal off in pouring rain? Spent a repeat of my 23rd birthday here, one night, just off the National Cycle Route 7 and had a... More

Mrs Fringe and I dropped in for supper on Saturday night. The place is immaculately clean and smart as a new pin, and inside the main bar the place was buzzing with a combination of locals, trippers who'd been hill walking or touring and a smattering of army folk I like my beer and there was some excellent and well-conditioned...

After visiting a couple of times to the House O'Hill and both want to sample some drinks with our meal, we booked a night in the pub. Our accommodation was a small cottage next to the pub, which was very comfortable and dog friendly with a little yard behind the cottage. After our walk around Glentrool Loch, we deserved a... More

I booked this hotel as a surprise for my husband's 50th birthday. Nicola who I spoke to when booking was very friendly and very helpful. I'd explained I had booked the "starry skies" lecture in the school in Glentrool and she helped plan when to have dinner so we would have time to do everything. I am so glad we... More

We stayed just down the road at the caravan park and so the House o’ the Hill was recommended by the owner. We were made to feel very welcome the moment we walked in. On the Saturday it was fully booked out but we had a drink and waited. So glad we did. The food was to die for. The... More

Hi and thank you for such a positive and helpful review. Sorry you may have had to wait for a table but glad you felt it was worth waiting for. Your advice to other travellers about booking is a good tip - we are especially busy in the summer months so booking is essential. It will be lovely to see... More

Thank you very much for your lovely review. It is especially warming to hear that you enjoyed your veggie meal so much. We try our best to offer creative and thoughtful vegetarian options, even if we don't have many on the menu due to demand. As we are not in a position to move our wee pub to York, maybe... More

We had the most brilliant meal for valentines night, the service food, setting were all of an excellent standard. Its was heart warming to be treated with staff that actually treated you with a welcoming smile. The whole experience was beautiful, including the complimentary rose and glass of pink bubbly. Well Done , We will return.
