Machars of Galloway Vacation Rentals

"A 2 night stay, part of a longer vacation. Tucked away in spacious grounds in a quiet area, yet still easily accessible with the A75 nearby. The staff were very friendly and helpful on our smooth check in. The hotel itself was a grand old building set in spacious grounds, with its own golf course and plenty of woodland walks, and a 3 mile walk to the beach. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, well appointed and clean. We enjoyed an evening meal, the food and staff were very good. Breakfast was a bit hit and miss. A good selection of fresh fruit and cereal and juices. But the buffet hot breakfast was a little disappointing. Some of it had obviously been out for a while and was cold. We are familiar with the area so it was a good base for exploring. There is good walking and cycling in the Galloway forest. Plenty of beaches to discover nearby. The area is also a Dark Park and on a clear night the starry sky is quite impressive. Overall we had a very good time and will return. "

Very big room with a huge bed and also seating area which was a surprise. We dined in the bar both nights and food and service were excellent. We would highly recommend this hotel and we will definitely be back,"
