We stopped at this beautiful riverside setting on our travels around Dumfries and Galloway. Warm friendly welcome. Shown to the field next to the hotel. Electric hookup at the pitches, fresh water, rubbish and disposal point. We parked near to the road to get a level pitch but the road was quiet overnight. Access to toilet and shower in the back of the hotel and decent WiFi. Perfectly adequate although the facilities could do with a good clean. There did not seem to be usable washing up facilities, but maybe because it was winter. We had dinner in the hotel which was lovely. The hotel and bar seemed oddly quiet for a Saturday night. Great location and with some investment and tlc, this could be transformed into a wonderful camping spot.

Awful excuse for a 'man' was rude and insulting when asked about room rates and to see a menu. Utter oaf in his mannerisms, use of language and demeanour. Perhaps simply a lack of intelligence is to blame and not anything more sinister; we left. An utter twonk! No wonder the place was empty and not a car parked there. He shall soon be bankrupt and selling on. Then perhaps some decent type may do the building and area justice? We can hope...

Great overnight stay at this friendly little hotel. Ignore the previous reviews and see for yourself as I was pleasantly surprised by the friendliness and hospitality received. Decent pub food in the bar/restaurant and good breakfast the next day. I had a nice, comfortable room overlooking the river which was spotlessly clean. The rooms are decorated in a traditional style which suits the age of the building etc but everywhere was clean and tidy. Would definitely stop over again if I was in the area.

Stayed here before and its a great location to stay when biking in the area. On arrival there was no problem booking in. We had already pre booked 5 of us to eat on the evening but this booking did not seem to be in the diary. Thankfully they could fit us in. Our room was really nice. Lovely and clean with very comfy beds! Very quiet and didnt hear any other guests. Food on the evening was nice. Every meal comes with ALOT of chips!! But everything was tasty. Breakfast was good. We had been asked to pre-order which we did and specified a time but still we had to wait half an hour from our time slot before our food came out. Thankfully we were not in a hurry but that was a bit strange! Only dealt with the female there. There was a lot going on at times and she seemed to be covering a lot of things. It would have been good if she had had more help - someone to clear the tables, take drink orders, deal with bookings coming in. She coped well but a helping hand would definitely make things run a bit more smoothly at front of house.

Another Wonderful Stay. This is the fourth time we have stayed at this lovely place since October last year. This was just a month since the new owners got the place and each time we have visited since it just gets better and better. With a lovely old fashioned feel and a quirky layout of up and down stairs it feels just right for the beautiful surroundings that it is located within. There is always a warm welcome with good food, (the curry dishes are a favourite of ours) and drinks at very reasonable rates, comfortable clean accommodation. We are always sad to leave, but that only makes us more excited to return again the next time. The ideal place to stay if like us you want to explore the beauty of the local area. There is a very well kept beautiful looking campsite to the side which is also owned by the Hotel.

Six of us stayed here for two nights. Three of us arrived slightly early, and were greeted by a very pleasant lady who was very apologetic that the rooms were not ready yet which was fair enough. The the owner arrived and asked us what we wanted! We just asked if we could leave our luggage somewhere whilst we waited in the bar with a drink whilst the rooms were being prepared. He looked at us as if we were a bit simple and gave us a resounding 'NO'. So we duly returned later having looked for alternative accommodation which was impossible at this late stage. The rooms were basic but comfortable enough, and most importantly clean. We had dinner out, and on returning we asked the owner for some drinks at the bar. Once again he looked at us as if we were stupid and just dismissed us with a 'bar is closed'. The one saving grace about this place is that the lady manager was outstanding. She tried her best to make our stay comfortable and she had an excellent demeanour and worked like a slave. She was seemingly available 24/7 and did everything. Literally everything. The owner just seemed to want to make guests miserable. She does not deserve to be in a place like this - she would be better employed as a senior customer services manager in some 5 star establishment elsewhere. If she wasn't there, then I would say avoid. She is the one saving grace.

Visited this evening, brilliant location, good parking facilities. That's where it stops! Waited around to get served in the bar, eventually a lady appeared and whilst serving another customer shouted to us "are you checking in?" To which I replied No. The lady then said "what are you doing here then"!!! I eventually ordered our drinks and we carried them outside once in the daylight you could see all glasses were filthy one still had someone's lipstick around the top! The building is tired, the atmosphere was non existent and the staff not interested. Avoid and carry on to Dalry three miles further on, there are two good pubs to choose from there.

Called to make a dining reservation, was asked to call again in 10 minutes time whilst they found the booking register, phoned back multiple times and did not pick up again, left a message requesting a table for 6pm the following evening, left our name and contact number. Didn't receive a call back so assumed all was OK, turns out it was just bad manners on the owners part and after driving over was told there was absolutely no chance of being sat without a reservation, a reservation that could never be made if they don't answer the phone after telling you yo call back. Have visited here many times over the years but will not be coming back.
