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."

Recent Reviews in Kippford

The Kings Arms Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were friendly and helpful and seemed to genuinely want you to have a pleasant stay - which I did. Breakfast was excellent."

The Garret

8/10 Good

"Hotel staff extremely nice and helpful. Only complaint really was I ordered a deluxe double room. This was pretty basic for deluxe! (although very clean) needed an upgrade on bed and general appearance rather tired looking."

The Golf Hotel

8/10 Good

"Nice location very friendly staff, nice food and decent breakfast."

Holiday Inn Dumfries by IHG

8/10 Good

"The Dumfries Holiday Inn was an overnight stay for us. The room was large and comfortable, and in the new part of the building. It was clean and functional and we had no complaints. The dinner was of a good standard, and the staff handled a change of order mid-way well. We had wine served in a slightly dirty glass, but that was dealt with promptly and with an apology and minimal fuss. The bar staff, waitress and waiter couldn’t have nicer. There was a suggestion made about a walk round the really interesting grounds of the university that the hotel sits in. The waitress knew about a map that reception had but the receptionist did not. That was sorted, so an early morning walk was taken and enjoyed. Breakfast was good and very much enjoyed. Check out was simple. A good hotel, that we would recommend and would stay at again."

The Huntingdon B&B

10/10 Excellent

"Nice property, scrupulously clean, with quality fixtures parking off-road outside the property breakfast choices were good though we didn’t eat"

The Golden Lion Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"I think it was the third time I have stayed here and as in the previous occasions I have nothing negative to say about it. My single room was spacious, the shower was good, the bed nice and firm. I didn't have my room serviced each day by choice but was asked if I wanted it to be. The hospitality tray was topped up well too. Breakfast was plentiful so yes all good."

The Hill Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The Hill Hotel is located in a quiet location, but is only a 10-15 minute walk into the center of Dumfries. The building interior has been lovingly restored, and is very clean. The owners are very friendly and gave us lots of great advice about places to visit in the surrounding areas. A very good breakfast too! Highly recommended."

Cally Palace Hotel & Golf Course
