Lovely Hotel

The staff were very friendly and the hotel is very dog friendly. In fact there is a large park within 5 minutes of walking from the hotel where the dog can be exercised. The food was also excellent and was freshly'home cooked'.

Lovely hotel in Castle Douglas

We loved this hotel. The staff and owners were all so lovely and helpful, giving us some bread so our daughter could feed the same at the nearby loch. The meals were great and the rooms comfortable. Wholly recommended.
