What travelers say
A snapshot of guest ratings and stories behind the stay.
“We had a wonderful experience here. The accommodations were spotless and offered plenty of extra space to relax. It’s a very nice, quiet property with a welcoming atmosphere.”
“stayed here on our way back to Belfast. Room was absolutely lovely, service was above top notch and the food was absolutely to die for. Litterally couldn’t recommend this place enough . We will be back as we are back and forth to Newcastle upon Tyne a lot”
“Large country house style hotel with good size rooms, lots of parking, decent cooked Scottish breakfast. Set away from the town a little in huge grounds. Felt like there should be three times as many guests for the size of the place.”
“Went to an event and great room for our Historic Dancing and stayed overnight . Unusual unfinished building near car park but dont be put off by this . You need a car to explore Dumfries you cant walk there.”
