1. Caul View Apartment in Dumfries

Dumfries

"This is a cracking flat within a short walk of Dumfries town centre. From the outside, the flats don’t look too inspiring, but it’s clearly been renovated recently and it’s been done really nicely. The two rooms are pretty much identical doubles, and the living room/kitchen is a good size. Nice views of the river from most rooms, and a lovely small balcony coming off the main living area. Would definitely come back if in the area."

"A lovely county castle surrounded by Belted Galloway cattle and sheep. The castle grounds have a fruit trees, herbs and vegetables. Tobias is truly a wonderful gentleman and host. He prepared an amazing breakfast both mornings which consisted of local flavors ( haggis, blood pudding, potato cakes, eggs, bacon and sausage). Tobias gave us a tour of the chapel and grand hall with interesting history. Baron James prepared a formal dinner which was also delicious. We are Maxwell descendants by DNA...

Top Dunscore Hotel Reviews

Holiday Inn Dumfries by IHG

8/10 Good

"Excellent hotel in lovely historical grounds amazing value (dinner included in price - 3 course meal). Food very good, bar nice. Parking on site. Just outside Dumfries town centre. A former hospital site, which is also a University campus - lovely grounds for a walk"

Dumfries Villa

10/10 Excellent

"Colin and the Dumfries Villa was an absolutely delight! It was such an easy walk from the train station, incredibly convenient! Colin made us feel like we were family-the villa was quiet and peaceful, the room was perfect! As two traveling women, we felt incredibly safe and cared for. Colin also let us know about all the wonderful sites to see in town and gave us a map to be able to get around easily. The breakfast was a true/traditional Scottish breakfast, made to personal preferences, by Colin himself! I will definitely be staying here again if I ever happen to be in the Dumfries area in the future! Thanks so much, Colin!"

Aberdour Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"The room was lovely but the sink in the en-suite was tiny & hard to get a wash or clean your teeth in without getting water everywhere. The front of the sink unit was already water damaged. The shower was good & easy to use. The lady who greeted us was very helpful & friendly especially as we forgot to take our key out with us & had to ask her to let us in to our room. Nothing seemed like too much trouble for her. There was a good choice for breakfast which was cooked to order"

Imperial Hotel

8/10 Good

"My friend and I spent Wednesday night there, and received a VERY friendly welcome from a nice lady at the reception desk. Unfortunately, there are no lifts and the stairs are rather steep and spiral too, which as two elderly men with walking sticks we found quite hazardous with our luggage. When we got to our room, which was on the first floor, the light in the shower room and loo was broken, resulting in complete darkness with the door shut. I went back and spoke to the lady who had welcomed us and her surprise at the light not working seemed 100% genuine and she apologised profusely and said she would "get it fixed". Then she very quickly and efficiently got us moved to another room, also on the first floor, which was absolutely perfect. I would recommend this hotel for its cleanliness and friendliness but disabled people need to be aware of the stairs."

The Birchtree Hotel

8/10 Good

"We stayed just the one night. The staff were very friendly and eager to provide good service. We enjoyed a pleasant drink on the lovely patio overlooking the river followed by a tasty meal in the bar. Breakfast was excellent . Our room was fairly basic with quite a small ensuite . The WiFi was good. We were pleased with our stay which represented good value."
