A warm welcome was followed by a warm and cosy room. The kippers for breakfast were piping hot and the egg poached to perfection. Breakfast was included in room price, and served to you table. The location is very central to the town, and the host was most helpful.

Amanda, the hotel owner was friendly, kind, helpful and understanding. She searched for more taxi numbers online for me as the numbers I had called earlier stated no taxi was available due to being on Sunday. She even went on to say if no taxi (taxis on Sundays are difficult to get) she would drive me to my destination from 9:30am when the breakfast time would be over. This is a good act of kindness. Fortunately, I was able to get a taxi at 9am who took me to my destination.

Breakfast wasn't available, I think she overslept

I was greeted by a nice bloke who said breakfast was from 7:30am. I thought that was great as I had to leave at 8:00am. I went to the resturant at 7:30am and the lights were off and no food was available, there wasn't even milk or juice in the fridge! I finished chemo 2 months ago so it's so important that I eat to keep my energy/strength up. At 8:00am, I rung the bell on reception and 3 minutes later, a woman came to me and told me I was lying about being told what time breakfast starts! She didn't apologise. She was actually quite angry and flustered so I got the impression she'd overslept. I would recommend staying down the road at Dumfries Villa - I have only ever had good experiences with the host called Colin who is really welcoming (unfortunately, he was fully booked!) She said that she would ring me to refund it but never did!

Bedrooms & decor of good quality, (though mattress had seen better days) but peripherals could benefit from attention -just one eg waste bin outside entrance full of butt ends & planters would benefit from sprucing up, breakfast area uninspiring & a bit tatty around the edges Potential of being really nice stay with a bit more tiding up & attention to detail.
