Top Cardoness Castle Hotel Reviews

Booktown Bunkhouse

8/10 Good

"Poor contact in arranging further bookings. Person in charge could not be contacted for further booking. Phoned 2 days after enquiry when l was at home."

Cally Palace Hotel & Golf Course

10/10 Excellent

"The period furnishings and decor in the lounges were very impressive. Some areas of the property are looking a little tired, but the Cally Palace have an abundance of excellent staff. They were all so friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble for them - definitely 5* staff. We had a lovely large bedroom, with great views at the rear. We had four evening meals in the dining room which were really good and the Cullen skink was excellent. Cally Palace was a great base for our four day break in a really lovely part of the country. Thank you to everyone at the Cally Palace."

Cottage with stunning views over Kirkcudbright Bay, a short walk from the beach.

10/10 Excellent

"Cosy cottage in spectacular location with stunning views. Ideal for visiting the various attractions that south west Scotland has to offer."

The Bladnoch Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Overall excellent...fair price, nice and cozy room, amazing owner! Nice location and not far from the man road ways and a gas station. Thank you!"

Tom's Place - a bungalow that sleeps 4 guests in 2 bedrooms

8/10 Good

"A spotlessly clean very well appointed bungalow. Lovely bathroom and great to have a wood burner. It's located in a very quiet cul de sac which, if I'm honest, let's the property down. Some of the neighbouring properties were a little run down cosmetically. Don't be put off. There were no problems whatsoever during our week's holiday with any neighbours or the on street parking. The property is very well located for walking down into town (there is a short length of hill to climb to return) and a medium sized Tesco is only 5 minutes walk through the housing estate. Similarly, to the rear of the property, further up the hill, in there is a lovely wood within 5 minutes walk if you're a dog owner as we are. On that point, the garden is very secure. The bungalow has been very nicely refurbished and has everything you might need other than perhaps a few more pans and utensils if you enjoy cooking. The internet signal was a bit patchy on occasions. Nice TV with several streaming channels. We had a small problem with the shower on the first day, and the host couldn't have been more helpful. Overall a lovely property and ideal for a restful break or as a base for exploring Galloway."

Sleeps up to 14

10/10 Excellent

"Fabulous property - luxurious and well appointed, great hosts who were friendly and welcoming. The house is ideally situated in Wigtown so right by some lovely pubs, bookshops and nice areas for walking. We were a group of 6 adults and 4 young children (and a dog) and it perfectly suited our needs - plenty of space and ideal for a group get together. We can’t wait to return!"

Providence Cottage Kirkcudbright

10/10 Excellent

"Heerlijk, comfortabel huis, goed voorzien en dicht bij alle bezienswaardigheden en winkels. Fijne keuken en geweldige regendouche, lekker royaal bed."

Beautiful house on private estate with hot tub, nature and adventure.

10/10 Excellent

"House itself is in need if a little TLC Didn't stop us from having a brilliant time here.The "hot tub" has to heated with logs, which are provided, left to heat for about 1 hour before going in. Water is brown, dirty looking, from tap but drinking water is provided. Loved the holiday. Host was very helpful and friendly. Dogs were very friendly as we're the horses and sheep. One thing we did miss were mats in the shower as one of the ladies slipped and fell in shower, gave herself a really sore bottom and back. Overall we Loved it. "

Crofthouse - UK43405

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely cottage. Totally spotless, very comfortable and well-equipped. Good outdoor seating area if you're lucky enough to have sunny weather! Easy parking. Located in a side street just off the main square of Wigtown, just 2 or 3 minutes' walk from a well-stocked Co-op. Great base for exploring Wigtownshire and the wider region of Dumfries and Galloway. Wigtown itself is lovely to stroll round, with it's many bookshops and a couple of nice cafes. Where it does fall down is an absence of restaurants for an evening meal, so be prepared to drive, or to make use of the nearby fish & chip shop or (as we did) cook your own meal!"
