A friendly, beautiful character hotel in a lovely part of Scotland.
Pros:

The staff were very friendly and could not have been more helpful. The rooms and public spaces were tasteful, clean and comfy, the garden was an absolute delight especially as we were lucky enough to have had very warm sunny weather for our 2 night stay. The bar and restaurant areas were very nice and the service spot on. There was a varied menu to suit all tastes and a good selection of local Galloway beers and wines from all over the world.

Cons:

Very minor things, the food looked good but was not very tasty, the quality of the meat was a bit patchy and a wee bit tough, the portions for dinner and breakfast were a bit on the small side BUT still was well presented and worth trying.

Overall, we had an enjoyable stay thanks to the beautiful setting, comfortable accommodation, and wonderful staff, but g
Pros:

We really enjoyed our stay. The property is set in a beautiful location with lovely surroundings that made it feel peaceful and relaxing. The staff were excellent, friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help. The beds were also very comfortable, which made for a great night’s sleep.

Cons:

There were, however, a few areas that could be improved. The bedrooms and bathrooms were on the small side, which made them feel a little cramped. The food was inconsistent throughout our stay. Some meals were delicious, with generous portion sizes, and the baked goods were excellent. However, other main meals and breakfasts were disappointing, particularly given the prices, and didn’t consistently reflect the standard we expected from this type of hotel.

We also felt there weren’t enough staff on duty to provide the level of service the hotel aims to offer at this price point. That said, the staff who were there were outstanding and worked incredibly hard to deliver the best service possible.

Recommend - hotel rooms beset options
Pros:

Staff are amazing, beautiful grounds, great food and super dog friendly

Cons:

We stayed in the new Shepards hut - I think it could be great if a fridge was added and a more comfortable mattress/topper and if possible moved so not so near the road. Hotel rooms were great last time we stayed.

Pros:

House and gardens are beautiful and peaceful. Staff friendly and attentive, food very good. Will definitely return if back in the area. Very dog friendly but also have separate dining areas for those with/without dogs so that people are not subjected to furry friends if they prefer not.

Terrible customer service
Pros:

Paid for a hotel room, hotel called to tell me it wasn't actually available and I would get a refund. Have email, gone thru PayPal and booking.com and have had zero comms from the hotel and obviously no refund

really comfortable small hotel serving good food, we hope to return.
Pros:

food was well cooked and had a good selection of options without being over facing, room was very comfortable with both bath and separate shower ensuite.

Cons:

a very minor matter, but wifi was patchy in our bedroom which might have been a problem if we had intended to work (we didn't!) as only 4G available.

Pros:

Loved the garden suit nice and clean and comfortable with everything you needed.

Cons:

The location of the garden suit was not the best as we had loads of crows above us in the trees it was not very relaxing , they made a noise all night. Maybe this needs to be put in the information when before booking or even change the location in the garden away from the crows.

Pros:

The friendly staff and general ambience of the Hotel. Very good location. Generally very good food.

Cons:

One night the food was overcooked but probably due to stand-in chef - otherwise good quality and variety. Pity about the racket from the birds but what you would expect with the hotel being in the middle of a rookery!!
