Pros:

I arrived from a late ferry after reception was closed, but the team put together a really helpful and clear video showing where my room was so it was easy to find. They even sorted out a later checkout for me as I was so late arriving. I was only there a relatively short period but I will be visiting again for sure. Room and Facilities were excellent.

Great location for the beach, spacious rooms, friendly staff and dog friendly
Pros:

Great location on the coast, friendly staff who make you feel at home, dog friendly as advertise, great not to be bombarded with a big set of rules, just a simple set of instructions to be respectful as you’d expect

Cons:

Breakfast, although there was a good variety of cold options and was as advertised, I always like the option of a cooked breakfast, especially on a farm

Amazing
Pros:

The rooms are very spacious. It's unusual to have a kitchenette in a room but so useful, especially when travelling alone as it is easy to prepare a meal. The selection for breakfast was very good. The room was spotlessly clean.

Cons:

I have used the hotel for many years. When I stayed originally it had a restaurant , I understand the financial implications especially in an area like Girvan but would love to see the restaurant back :)
