The hotel is old but has character - some of the furnishings were a little tired but there was a bit of a cleanliness problem with grubby banisters, doors and lightswitches. Also we had a few cobwebs in our room.

The food at this hotel is amazing both breakfast and evening meal. All the staff were friendly and helpful. The location was marvellous and there is so much to do in the area for all abilities.

Really friendly staff. Comfortable country hotel with plenty of relaxing space. Lovely suite on the top floor which was very quiet and had all we needed. Excellent breakfasts and evening meals all freshly cooked to order.

Nice room with a spacious bathroom. Staff friendly, welcoming and helpful. We ate in the restaurant and the food was excellent and service great. The included breakfast was good and the room also had tea/coffee facilities with a kettle and biscuits which was useful. Great private parking and the hotel is only a short walk from Newton Stewart centre.

I imagine the car park could get very full if there was an event on.

Excellent well presented food. Very friendly and helpful staff.

The attic room was too low for me ,,, my head touched the ceiling easily,,,and the stairs were tricky and tight when carrying a suitcase … not a room for a pensioner but that is all they had…

Evening meal was good and they coped with 2 restaurants and the outside picnic area which was full ,,very well..breakfast was good as well..

Nothing to dislike

The location is perfect, a grand country house in a lovely area. Our room was very spacious with very nice decor. The shower was powerful, and there is even a spa bath! The restaurant served excellent food and the staff were very friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and plan to .stay again.

Nothing, everything is great - unfortunately didn't get the amazing lemon pavlova the 2nd night 😢 😅😅 due to a large party who ate it all 🤣🤣. Just have to come back & stay again & hopefully it'll still be on the menu 🥰

Fabulous Hotel, this was our 2nd stay and we will be back. Was even better this time around, staff are really friendly and helpful. As are the locals - great craic in the bar. Lovely play area for the kids with a mini zip line. Food is excellent with lots of choice available. Plenty of parking availble. Can't recommend it enough

Nothing I did not like

We had dinner and breakfast, both were very good. Bar area is small but cosy and barman very friendly and welcoming. Rooms slightly dated but very clean and comfortable. Would recommend and definitely return, this was our second stay.

Staff were superb - warm, friendly, and courteous. A minor hiccup at checkout was dealt with cheerfully and efficiently. The food was excellent - delicious and presented with care. The room was quiet and comfortable. Great location and the hotel itself is a beautiful building full of character. Would gladly recommend!

This is a comment, not a complaint: it is an old property and some of the fittings are getting rather tired but this did not in any way detract from our enjoyment.

Friendly and attentive staff: reaction to, and treatment of, a confused guest were very impressive. Stornoway black pudding is delicious. The location is quiet and peaceful and the weather was amazing!

The entrance drive is off a side road, unbeknown to Google, but a local pointed us to it.

Traditional hotel and pub in a grand building with friendly staff and a relaxing atmosphere.

A wonderful old hotel close to the bridge going into Newton Stuart. A large pleasant beer garden with equally large play area for the traveler with children. The age of the premises adds to the atmosphere, with wooden floors and nooks and crannies. Beds and bathroom are very good. The restaurant does great food and an excellent breakfast.

I greatly enjoyed my stay:-)

Breakfast was lovely as always😀

If an even is going to be on, we would have liked to know, and adjust our stay. A disco until midnight was extremely loud in the upstairs wing above it. Better soundproofing needed if guests are staying who are not attending the event.

Just a lovely ungentrified place to stay. A place with real character. An excellent location and a good base for many walks in the area. The food is excellent and it's easy to have something ketogenic (low carb, high good fats). The staff are the best.
