Excellent, convenient location to stay during the Wigtown book festival. Particular highlight being the friendly, informative staff. We were delighted to experience the delicious Scottish breakfast each morning, ingredients sourced from local farms.

Very run down and tired. Everything in the room was past its best or broken. Bed was dreadful, very thin old sprung mattress, felt every lump! No bar, no restaurant, no beer garden. Breakfast was the only plus point.
