We had an issue with the car, and didn’t arrive until after 8pm. Our host was extremely understanding and helpful, and she gave us a room on a lower floor. The room was clean and spacious, with a comfy bed and bedside lamps with USB ports in the base -ingenious! The en suite bathroom had everything we needed, the small radiator keeping the temperature perfect and the towels cosy. The breakfast was amazing. We would stay again.

The only issue we had, we are not small and struggled getting into the shower, with the corner opening on the shower screen. That was our fault for being on the large side though.

Lovely warm welcome from Amanda, and the guest house was just a short stroll from the station. Pleasant, quiet, clean room and an excellent night's sleep. Magnificent breakfast, and Amanda let us breakfast a bit early so we could catch the ferry. A great stopover.

The en suite bathroom was quite small and the shower was tricky to use (unpredictable hot water flow). Nice big pot of tea at breakfast but not the strongest :-)

The location was ideal as it was halfway between the train station and the town center which both were easy to get to and a short distance away. The twin bed room I stayed in was comfortable and nicely decorated. Breakfast options where variable and the host was more than willing to meet dietary requirements.

Could hardly fault the place. Only thing I would ask for is a mat in the shower to prevent slipping.

The bedroom we were allocated was very spacious and comfortable and the property was very convenient for walking into the town centre. The parking on site was very convenient and we received a very warm welcome when we arrived.

The breakfast was fine but it was served in a very dispiriting room with no windows and very basic furniture.

The rooms are basic but clean and the woman at reception was friendly and helpful. It's a basic, functional place that serves the purpose and gets the job done for a very reasonable price. There is also free parking located directly in front of the property. The location is walking distance to the centre of town which is also nice.

The guesthouse is very close to the town centre yet in a calm neighborhood.Amanda is a lovely host, attentive and a good communicator. I loved the high ceilings, the crisp white decorations and especially the view of the game of bowls across the street!

No complaints.

Good value for money. Spotlessly clean. Near the train station. Amazing breakfast options. Friendly staff. Loved the cotton wool pads in the bathroom and shower gel and shampoo were lovely.

I'd put a non slip mat in the shower or a wooden slatted thing to stand on as it can be slippery when you get out.

Very welcoming, friendly and helpful owner. Lovely breakfast. Clean room.

Despite being quite a large town, Dumfries seemed to have very few options to eat out in the evening (within walking distance of the B&B). Found a great place (The Hitching Post), which was not too far.
