The hotel is in fairly large estate surrounded by fields and just off the A75 a few miles east of Dumfries. It is an imposing building. We found the decor bland and beige in the reception area and also the room. The bedroom is well laid out with a modern bathroom. However the position of the TV on the wall made it impossible to fully see the screen while lying in bed. The bathroom had an over the bath shower which is not accessible to oldies like us. Also no grab rails on the walls beside the shower making it even more difficult for us to use. Tried to get a change to a room with a walk in shower but no luck. Better to book room with one in advance. The staff were all very friendly, helpful and attentive. Meals generally good, but sometimes coffee or tea not warm enough and breakfast items like bacon not crispy enough for our liking. We would probably return but making sure we booked a room with a walk in shower.
