"This is a lovely place to stay. The Cornmill is right down by the shore of the Cree estuary and Garlieston is a fabulous old village with the Harbour Inn providing good food (advisable to book, though, as our landlady kindly told us). Lovely walks, bike rides and places of historical interest in the vicinity. Katy at the Cornmill was kindness itself - her breakfasts are fantastic and if there's anything else you need, you only needed to ask. Hoping to go back, not least to take advantage of her...

"Location was perfect for walks we wanted to do (including Merrick). Accommodation was new and so in perfect order. I had asked before arrival if bedding was included since the photos didn't show. Answer came back yes. What they didn't tell me at that point was that towels/shower gel/dish towels were not included and so we wasted time going into town to spend £34 on towels. Reception did promise my wife a dish towel so we could dry their cups and plates , but it never appeared. Just let people...

The Garret

10/10 Excellent

"It was a basic but clean room and the staff at the hotel were very friendly. Had a lovely stay"

The Ship Inn

10/10 Excellent

"When we arrived at the hotel it didn't look anything special from the outside. On entering into the small reception we received a very warm welcome and given some local information. We were directed to our room which was very spacious, clean and a nice outlook . The bed was very comfortable although I found the room warm but my husband slept right through the night, which is unusual for him. We opted to have dinner in the hotel and although a bit pricy we were very happy with what we ordered. A very pleasant stay and I would definitely return"

Barholm Accommodation

8/10 Good

"Staff was awesome"

Cally Palace Hotel & Golf Course

10/10 Excellent

"Hope you all enjoy your stay as much as we did, excellent hotel, wonderful and polite staff, fantastic views and good food."

Cottage with stunning views over Kirkcudbright Bay, a short walk from the beach.

10/10 Excellent

"This is a beautiful cottage, in a stunning location. The cottage is so comfortable and well equipped and beautifully decorated. Especially loved the window seats along one side of the house to take in the amazing view.Just a short 5 minute walk down to Dhoon Bay and a 10 minute drive to Kirkcudbright. We were lucky enough to be staying over the August Bank Holiday weekend so we could attend the amazing floodlit Tattoo and Fireworks event. And it's a very pretty town with a lot of interesting history.The gorgeous coastal villages of Kippford and Rockcliffe are a bit further away by car but well worth the visit, and there are lots of other walks in the area too.Thanks very much Moira, for a wonderful stay. We highly recommend."

Booktown Bunkhouse

10/10 Excellent

"Stayed here on a visit to Wigtown in late August 2026. Communication was great with multiple emails confirming reservation and instructions. Although there are no staff of duty the instructions on how to get the key were timely and detailed and we had no problems at all getting in and checking out, and we arrived late. The bunkhouse is clean, smelled fresh, and the rooms were nice. We stayed in rooms 1 & 3 and it was lovely. Also very quite! The bathrooms were modern, very clean, and well equipped. There is also a large common room where we had group meals and an excellent kitchen with everything we needed including fridge. Beds and linen were clean and smelled fresh. Owners have thought of everything...they even have boot dryers! I highly recommend the Bunkhouse! If ever anywhere near Wigtown again I will definitely stay there. I would especially like to thank the very nice young lady who came to clean up. She was very pleasant and even carried a bag out to our vehicle for us. Oh, and there is a great fish & chips place just a few doors down that stays open pretty late. A great overall experience!"

Craigmount

10/10 Excellent

"Nicole & Mal are a lovely couple and couldn’t do enough for us. Gave helpful advice on local places to eat as well as knowledge of Wigtown. The property was very homely, lovely room with book theme and comfy beds. Nice bathroom with modern shower. Living room downstairs to use was also very cosy and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, all local produce and even went out of their way to get the Rice Krispies that we asked for because they had run out. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area to stay here."

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous property - luxurious and well appointed, great hosts who were friendly and welcoming. The house is ideally situated in Wigtown so right by some lovely pubs, bookshops and nice areas for walking. We were a group of 6 adults and 4 young children (and a dog) and it perfectly suited our needs - plenty of space and ideal for a group get together. We can’t wait to return!"

The Bladnoch Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely country pub with beautiful rooms upstairs. Really friendly staff and the view on the way to my room were the best I had all day, and I had covered 270 miles 😳"
