What guests think

Across reviews, guests describe The Fenwick Hotel as friendly and good value, with consistently praised meals and breakfasts, helpful staff, and a generally clean environment that makes short stays and stopovers comfortable for travellers passing through the area.

Rooms vary, with several noting tired decor, small or weak showers, and uncomfortable or joined-together beds, though some found them comfortable. Its roadside location by the M77 is convenient for drivers but brings noticeable traffic noise for some, while others report it manageable with windows closed and appreciate being outside a town centre. Parking is generally plentiful but can be strained during events, and the bar selection is reported as limited. Expect a straightforward stay suited to motorists and short visits.

As is stated in the hotel info, it's right next to the M77 so some traffic noise but it was OK. Food OK. Bar very limited. Room small, very basic and not very comfortable. Shower cubicle the smallest I've ever seen and shower itself was utterly pathetic. Really disappointing! Plenty parking and staff were all canny

When we arrived we were mobbed by over 100 little Taylor Swifties coming to an event. They had taken up all the parking and it was difficult to maneuver our luggage in the door. The staff took good care of us though.

A good hotel for travelers who need a break, but not in a town center. Very convenient to motorway. Good parking.

The bed in our first room was broken, we found out in the morning and told the hotel. They gave us a new room and said they would comp the first night. It was only After we left they told us they had changed their mind about comping the first night.

Had a very pleasant stay here! I noticed reviews of the noise of the nearby motorway however we stayed in a room right next to the road on the ground floor and unless we had the window open, the road noise wasn’t an issue! Room was very clean along with the hotel as a whole! Breakfast was a highlight, the selection was limited but was exactly what was needed! Everyone is very friendly! I would happily stay here again should I need to spend time in this area again!

Had a long terrible drive, turned up at the hotel few hours before checking in time. The lady was so understanding and kind, she let me have the room to rest. Room was extremely comfortable and clean. Plenty of choice for breakfast.

The room I was assigned was at the back and far end of the hotel. With the A77M running around 20 feet from the window, the room was rather noisy. The staff were all friendly and helpful but the breakfast staff were rather slow and ineffective. The tea took a long time to arrive and when it did the pot had less than one cup in it. When I asked for a refill, the tea came back so weak it was basically water. When asked for another teabag the staff looked as though I had asked her for her life savings. Not the best experience, but definitely not the worst I+'ve ever had.

Hidden gem tucked away in a beautiful village. Amazing staff and so welcoming and friendly. Thanks to Jamie and Connor for welcoming us so warmly and with great humour, we needed a laugh after a very long day of traveling from London Heathrow. Breakfast the next morning was incredible, and absolutely cooked to perfection. We will most definitely be back. Best regards from Paul and Joanne.
