"Peaceful surroundings with interesting history and nature"

10.0

A beautiful location. We stayed here for a 1 night stop on our way to the Highlands. Staff were so friendly and helpful. The walk around the grounds is stunning; along the river and through a beautiful forest filled with bluebells. The cottage was really peaceful. We’ll definitely be back.

"Prijs kwaliteit is in verhouding."

7.0

Landhuis op een mooie plek. Prachtig uitzicht op de rivier. Lobby, Lounge en bar gezellig. Kamers netjes en zeer Hondvriendelijk.

Veel achterstallig onderhoud. Het pand verdient een grondige renovatie/ update. Zeer beperkt continentaal ontbijt

"Pleasant"

8.0

It's a beautiful property nestled in the countryside. Big car park. The food was really good. Set course meals. £35 for a 2 course and £40 for 3 course. The white chocolate and rhubarb dessert was probably one of the nicest afters I think I've had.

Our room hadn't been hoovered. Feathers and plastic wrapper on the carpet on arrival. No bottles of drinking water in the room either, I think they expect us to fill the kettle with bathroom tap/bath water. In the restaurant table cloths aren't changed between dinner and breakfast, instead they dust off crumbs. Our breakfast table had crumbs from the diners the night before. That wasn't pleasant, just change the cloths.

"I was really pleased with it. Would definitely return there if I'm back in Dumfries."

9.0

Good staff. Cleanliness. Snooker room.

Breakfast was described as 'good' on booking.com. It was ok as it was only a continental breakfast which did not include sliced meat and cheese. In Scotland, a good breakfast implies a cooked breakfast, but that had a £10 surcharge, so I felt a bit short changed there.
