A very enjoyable stay, very clean, spacious and amenities 1st class.

Will definitely be back. Breakfast was tasty and plentiful. Highly recommended accommodation. I will definitely be spreading the word on this place!

Mr Gray

Couldn't ask for a better room or better service.

Clean, tidy, quiet and everything I could want already in the room.

I have stayed in many hotels and this has been the best for both quality & price.

I will definitely visit again.

A unique establishment with a fascinating history. The sincere kindness, consideration and service extended to our weary party was much appreciated.

The accommodations are spacious, spotless and tasteful.

By applying the B&B concept to an unconventional setting, the personable proprietors have created a refreshing experience. Will not hesitate to return or to recommend to others visiting this lovely part of Scotland, so conveniently located to the Irish ferries.

All the best.

p.s. Great Breakfast

As a business user who usually uses travel inns and not B&B's, I was pleasantly surprised. The pics on the web don't do it justice.

Lovely surroundings and well kept garden area. reception is small but very clean & tidy and well maintained (didn't even see a chipped skirting board). Everything looks newly renovated. This continues in the bedroom. My single room was well sized and modern with Sky & LCD TV.

Could benefit from wireless internet and bar/restaurant on site as business user.

Appreciated being greeted by Paul, despite our arrival being at 11.00 pm!

(love the small touches, e.g. scissors on the table to aid opening the sachets of sauce - simple, but makes all the difference - demonstrates real empathy for the weary traveller!). Thanks loads.

Elaine & William Gilchrist

Beautifully clean, well furnished accommodation in a peaceful, picturesque location. Paul was waiting to greet us on arrival and explained the layout, even suggesting a good quality 'eaterie' close by for dinner.

Iona MacRitchie / Douglas Beck

Wow! This is the nicest B&B we've stayed in for quite some time. We wished we could stay longer.

I stay in around 80 B&B's, guest houses or hotels each year, and it's really unfortunate that you come to expect mediocre service and quality. You guys have got it just right - I honestly think that this is one of the best B&B's I have ever stayed in. Very comfortable, a wonderful welcome, a great laid-back attitude and very reasonable prices.

Do you fancy opening more places in other parts of Scotland?

Once again, a lovely welcome from two warm and friendly people, and with only a small step to negotiate, the flat is ideal for anyone with mobility problems.

The well-equipped kitchen, lounge double bedroom and the twin room are immaculate, the bathroom is huge with all the facilities needed for a wheelchair to move around with ease.

Our large delicious evening meal and breakfast were served in the flat, and are great value for money.

Rhins of Galloway is ideally situated for the Irish ferry at Cairnryan, and Stranraer ferry is only a short distance away.

I think it is fairly obvious that "we shall be back"!

Having been a 'self-caterer' for more years than I care to remember (more than 60), I have experienced many changes and enhanced standards but I can honestly say that none have bettered the Rhins of Galloway.

The number of things that are normally subject to an extra charge but are included in the basic price and the thoughtful little extras make a stay here exceptionally pleasing and comfortable.

An absolute delight. Good friendly service, superb food and excellent accommodation.

The standards are superior to many 'so-called' first class hotels.

First impression of walking into the building was the friendly owner who was there to greet us on arrival. He showed both my husband & myself around the communal areas and the "developing bar room" is very impressive. Our room was clean and was cleanly decorated to give a fresh and "airy" feeling. Bed was very comfortable. It had all the hallmarks of a 3 star hotel. Well done!

Our fifth visit and yet again, the welcome and excellent accommodation along with our choice of evening meals - superb! We'd better book our next visit now while you've got a spare room or two!

We enjoyed our stay very much. Great hospitality, good food, beautiful location with nice views. We will certainly be back. A lot of information about the area is available. A shower curtain (for the bath) would be nice, after showering your new carpet is very wet.

Had a wonderful visit from start to finish. The room was lovely and the gentlemen running Rhins of Galloway were so welcoming and helpful. I would recommend a stay here to anyone.

We will return very soon.

If you are in the area as a tourist, on business or catching the ferry, this is definitely the place to stay. The location is excellent, and the accommodation spacious, allowing guests to 'wander around'. I loved the subtle decor, fabulous bathrooms, stylish lounge and a few nice antiques placed around. Our host gave us such a warm welcome, we felt we had just arrived as a dinner guest! The function room is being renovated and will be great. This is definitely going to be the place to stay - watch this space and book early! Many thanks.

I would like to thank you for my stay on the 24th February, It was way better than I had expected, I had a great nights sleep which is not something I can normally say when I am staying away. Breakfast was excellent especially the vegetarian option, I can honestly say it was the best vegetarian brekkie I have ever eaten out. The rooms were really clean and very comfortable. Keep up the good work.

I received a warm welcome, a well-equipped & comfortable room, and great food.

The furnishings are well-chosen & interesting - how often can you say that about a B&B?

Joyce Kiejda & Dave Dutton

Excellence in every way - great accommodation, great food, great company - we'll be here for our 5th visit before summer. Thank you both.

It was a cold winters night when we arrived at this place. They were very accommodating to us and our dog. The apartment we had was nice and warm and a very comfy bed - had a lovely nights sleep, and the surroundings are fabulous.
