Dumfries and Galloway: soggiorni in B&B

Anita was a fabulous host. very accommodating & helpful. wonderful vegan breakfast. Really comfortable & quiet stay. Great access to Buttermere. thank you!

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at Motherby House and am so grateful to the hosts, Jacquie and David, for making me feel so welcome. They’re both kind and engaging—and they gave me some great recommendations for places to eat and visit in the area. Breakfast was delicious and Jacquie kindly made me a tasty packed lunch for my hike! I’d be very happy to stay here again.

Had the best time there breakfast was fantastic bed was really comfy bathroom was spotless and Simon and wife cath was the perfect host we arrived as guest felt like we left as friends

Celia and Richard were so welcoming, staying with them was like being home from home and I truly was invited to make myself comfortable. My room was beautiful, with a 6ft double bed and a corner bath, I felt like royalty! There was plenty of space, I could have had 3 more people in it with room to spare. The rooms face into a central courtyard with a strategically placed water feature so that the rooms remain private. They have an honesty bar so that you can help yourself to drinks and pay for them on departure, which I loved and was able to sit in the sun reading with a gin and tonic. Celia asked me if I would like to eat in, and being on my own this suited me as I hate eating alone and the dining room has a table big enough for 20 or so, which everyone sits at together. The food was delicious, home smoked salmon, wild venison and a sumptuous pudding! I was given directions for a lovely walk with my dog after dinner, so I got to see more of the farm, particularly sheep and highland cows. Breakfast was pure luxury, things you would never treat yourself to at home, cereals, fruit compotes, juices and then cooked too if you wanted. I met some lovely people at dinner, and the whole experience is one I would gladly repeat. Thank you for a wonderful stay, I hope to return soon.

Great peaceful stay in beautiful location, opposite the marshes... a stunning sunset walk! Delicious breakfasts, Raphaela went out of her way to cater a tasty vegan breakfast. One of my favourite breakfasts in a long time! Thank you for a warm and friendly stay, would highly recommend :)

We rocked up to Jill s after a long drive from London. The house is picturesque and comfortable. Her welcome was very warm and she was really helpful getting us somewhere to eat as we hadn’t given a thought to booking anywhere. Breakfast was great I particularly liked the cheese on toast with fried eggs! Jill also helped us with directions and suggestions as to how to get sorted with our catbells climb. All in all a lovely stay.

a delightful place to stay, perfect r location for walks along the beach and close to some great places to dine smd drink! Julie was a fab host, communicating with clarity and made you feel at home with a beautifully curated space that helps ypu to relax and feel at ease... I would stay again in a heartbeat!

good all round views privacy good rooms and contal breakfast fresh maid and dog friendly also out door seating with stunning views

We thought we were going to love it here and we were right. Sheri’s hospitality and willingness to go the extra mile (accommodating my husband’s dietary requirements for instance) only enhanced our stay at this very special location. We’d love to go again!

Thanks for a wonderful and memorable visit to Cockermouth! The space was lovely and I appreciated how responsive and accommodating Amy was during the 5 night stay. The bed was very comfortable and the shower was amazing! Hope to return to Cockermouth again soon!

Excellent location, very smart neighbourhood, kind and friendly host and staff. The rooms were very well turned out with lovely linen, soft beds, spotlessly clear and classy artwork lining the walls on the way up to the bedroom. Flexible response to providing an early breakfast. Breakfasts were delicious, especially in my opinion the porridge with berries, honey and cream. I would like to come back again very soon!

Lovely family room with comfortable beds and spotless bathroom. Great spot at end or start of Hadrian’s Wall trail. Breakfast great as was the food in the Bistro in the evening. Only minor downside was room was very bright as blinds didn’t block light.

The Holly room was lovely with dual aspect windows. A lovely view across to the ŕiver. Appreciated the lift and on site dining, but would have preferred to be able to order just a main course. The pricing was for a 2 or 3 course meal. The lounge with huge fireplace was lovely and the snooker table in its own room a nice touch. Enjoyed the stroll to Robbie Burns Hermitage before departure. The surrounding countryside is beautiful.

Eric and Judith are fantastic hosts and are very welcoming. The accommodation is clean and comfortable, the breakfast was lovely and the views out over the Solent are stunning. We hope to be back sometime. Thank you for having us!

Good little place to stay near the start/end of the Hadrian’s Wall Path, which is a 20-30 minute walk away. Room was spacious and had a handy kitchen space.

We stayed for one night. Beautiful view from the window seat in our bedroom. Super comfy bed, lovely powerful show and all beautifully decorated. Tracey is friendly and made us feel v welcome. We also enjoyed the breakfast. We will look forward to visiting again.
