Tillie the dog was a delightful bonus! Much more homely and welcoming than a hotel and had fantastic views over the water to the mainland. If you are short on things to do, Ken is very knowledgeable on places to visit and how to get there. Highly recommended!
• Kay (10/5): Exceptional -

• Christine (10/5): Beautifully located at the famous Marine Parade, attractive house - Situated at the Marine Parade, the location couldn't be better. Off street parking is very appreciated. The house looks beautiful and the rooms are comfortable. Vegan options for breakfast are no problem for Ken, who is the perfect host. He keeps discreetly back, but does everything, if you need help. And - surprise! - the room rates are very attractive for what you get. Absolutely nothing.

The house is absolutely spotless top to bottom with everything the guest would need for a comfortable stay. Breakfasts were well-cooked and tasty, and ample enough to set one up for the day. Bedroom was well-appointed, with numerous thoughtful details. The bed was comfortable with spotless bed linen. I will return!

• Michael (10/5): Short weekend sray - A welcoming greeting from Ken and Room 4 was excellent with fabulous sea views. Ken was very knowledgeable and offered great advice for a trip around the Cowal Peninsula. Breakfast was plentiful with a varied choice. We had shown an interest in the Holy Loch and the US Navy in the 70s and Ken went out of his way to find a copy of a book all about it and the experiences of locals. Couldn't fault anything.
• Ian (9/5): Superb - Kenny was a very pleasant, knowledgeable and helpful hoist. He runs a lovely establishment. From a personal prospective, the bed pillows weren't supportive enough, both were very soft.
• Jan (10/5): Douglas Park Dunoon Kirk - Very nice and comfortable guest house with a beautiful view from the breakfast room and lounge room. The driving distances in this part of west highlands are longer than expected.
• Amanda (8/5): Recommended - Super friendly host (with a cute dog). Good size room with lots of natural light, and the B&B is right by the water. Good and generous breakfast. Host can recommend places to go and to eat locally. Nothing really.

I will have no hesitation in booking again for a return visit. Nothing

• Elaine (10/5): - Douglas Park was an incredible property. It was immaculately clean. Everywhere. The whole guest house looks like it has just been newly refurbished. The decor is modern and elegant. The rooms were spacious and if you choose to get a front room the view is spectacular. There is free parking but if you don’t have a car there is a bus straight outside the door that takes you into town, to the ferries, to your next destination. Ken, our host, was so helpful. He recommended places for dinner that were excellent. He new the bus and ferry schedules off by heart he helped us organize ordering flowers for a friend we were going on to visit. Breakfast was included and was absolutely delicious. Service was prompt and attentive. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to everyone!!
• james (10/5): Room with a view - From walking in the door to leaving Ken &Shona made your stay great. Made a pot of coffee so we could relax after our journey,we had this in lounge facing the Water. Sat watching boats and wild life Bedroom large with panoramic windows and a big shower cabinet in bathroom. Large bed. Ken advised on eating out offering to book for us. Breakfast lovely and Shonas home made marmalade was delicious. A fond fair well. We will be back. Jim&Shona. Many thanks
• khalil (10/5): Better than any 5 stars hotel in London - Very beautiful location, nice view, fresh air, very clean, would love to book in again
• JANE (10/5): Excellent stay. - Wonderfully comfortable guest house. Very friendly hosts. Lovely bedroom/shower room. Fluffy towels and very comfortable bed with lovely linen.
• Jonathan (10/5): Service & Experience - Excellent experience and exemplar Service. Best Breakfast in Scotland!!
• Ann (10/5): Friendly staff, very welcoming. - Good experience. Owners could not do enough to help you make your stay enjoyable. We hope to return again soon
• Gabriele (10/5): One of the best accommodations we ever stayed at - We booked the twin room for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious and tastefully decorated with luxurious touches. We had lovely views onto the garden and the beds were very comfortable. Our private bathroom was a few steps down the landing, which was no problem as bathrobes were provided. The breakfast room and guest lounge both offered stunning sea views of the Firth of Clyde, ideal for spending a rainy afternoon with a good book. We found plenty things to do during our stay including hill walking and visiting interesting and picturesque places like Tarbert and Inveraray. Some of the landscape and nature was just breathtaking. Dunoon had all the amenities and plenty of good restaurants and pubs. However, our drive to Otter Ferry to have lunch at the "Oyster Catcher" pub/restaurant was well worth it. The guest house owners Shona and Ken were the perfect hosts and went out their way to make our stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. They provided us with local information and suggestions for things to do. We appreciated the little treats we found each night in our room and the breakfast was very good and varied, with fresh fruit - strawberries and blueberries! - provided every morning. We can highly recommend Douglas Park Guest House and would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks again Shona and Ken for looking after us so well.
