Like a home from home only better.
Pros:

From the moment we arrived the young lady at reception treated us like family. The heating wasn’t on in the room so she organised a space heater. My daughter and I were visiting my mum. The property was so homely and beautifully decorated and styled.

Cons:

Nothing. We loved it all.

The Market Inn will be my choice for any future visit to Castle Douglas.
Pros:

Our room was spacious, clean and nicely decorated. The hotel restaurant was convenient and cozy with a variety of options on the menu. The food was very good. The best part of the Market Inn was the staff. Everyone was exceptionally friendly and helpful.

The Market Inn is conveniently located to numerous shops and restaurants in town. Castle Douglas is a great central location to explore the area.

Cons:

There was nothing to dislike.
