James & Anna Reade

As we are in transit, we stayed for just one night - arrived to a warm welcome from Paul our host, who at once made us feel at home. Our requests were met immediately - we were very comfortable - all is 'spick & span' here - mainly we were made to feel at home.

The standard of decor and cleanliness is second to none.

Rhins would put the majority of hotels I have stayed in to shame.

It would be an injustice if I did not mention this on Expedia so I hope you have no objection.

I am truthfully astonished at your hospitality. Thank-you.

An absolutely brilliant B&B.

A large bright and airy room & en-suite.

Immaculately clean & tidy with complimentary's and special touches worthy of any 5 star hotel. Breakfast well cooked and well presented with plenty of choice, with the owners on hand to help you in any way they can. This is really worth the money you pay and more.

As a B&B/Guesthouse, the Rhins of Galloway exceeds all our expectations!

The level of service, decor, & comfort are better than some 4 or 5* hotels that we've stayed in. In addition, my husband (a connoisseur of such things!) said the full breakfast was the best he'd had in terms of quality, freshness & presentation. We'd love to stay again & thoroughly recommend to others!

B & K Bryant

From the moment we rang with our enquiry, we have been met with friendliness. We have enjoyed our stay and only wish we had booked for more than the one night. The local knowledge was brilliant and information given very helpful.

The hotel itself is very welcoming. The rooms are first class for cleanliness and comfort, our early morning breakfast excellent. We would certainly recommend a stay here to anyone visiting the area.

Thank you. We hope to come again (we will come again).

Steve McGrath, Frizington Cumbria

Brilliant! Friendly! I would go as far to say the best nights stay in a B&B ever (although it felt like a 4 star hotel). I travel away to work 3 times per week and this is the most relaxing stay over ever.

Too many good points to list.

03/07/2009

Lynn & Derek (Bedfordshire)

This is without doubt the best B&B we have ever stayed at. We cannot fault anything. The accommodation is of the highest standard & tastefully decorated, modern and spotlessly clean. The owners, Paul & John are welcoming and extremely friendly, helpful and informative. An excellent breakfast and comfortable bed. The attention to detail says a great deal about the thought and consideration invested in this not to be missed B&B, Well done John and Paul!

The apartment was ideal for us with a  young family. being able to put the boys to bed and sit and relax was great. The beds are really comfortable. All the complimentaries are very impressive and make life a little easier. Breakfast was fab.

Apartment would benefit from folding table & chairs for longer stays and maybe a highchair. Recycling facilities would also be useful.

A very comfortable stay in roomy accommodation. The well fitted out interior belies the slightly untidy exterior. A real gem !

Breakfast topped off a most enjoyable overnight stay.

We really enjoyed our stay. The atmosphere is very welcoming here.

The garden flat is perfect for families with young children.

We would definitely stay here again.

Staying in this superbly appointed Guest House is more like staying in a 3 star hotel. Furnishings and equipment are of a  high quality and the taste cannot be faulted. Attention given to guests and their needs is personal, caring and totally professional.

There's nothing better than a warm and friendly welcome after a 5 hour drive, or so I thought. This was even better, a warm welcome, stunning room and very comfy bed have re-invigorated me. They say that it's all in the detail, and there is not even the tiniest detail that has been overlooked. It's like a pot of gold at the end of a rainbow.

This was my first visit to Stranraer and after my partners firm booking our accommodation, I did not know what to expect for one night.

My first impression was 'what a beautiful building', inside it was a mixture of 'Location, Location, Location' and on further inspection 'Grand Designs'.

The hotel is complete for guests to enjoy, welcome from hosts, friendly & warm, food fabulous.

I wish you well in this venture and will return with a trip to Ireland on my next visit.

Cannot wait to see the 'hall' finished.

Great reading in the room on history.

The warmest of welcomes awaits you.

Lovely relaxing atmosphere, nothing is too much much trouble.

Attention to detail e.g. the tiny scissors on the tables to cut open the sauce sachets. And of course the wonderful food.

Rhins may have a 3 star rating but you can be sure of 5 star service.

After misinterpreting the directions, arrived to a very warm welcome, good parking (if a bit bumpy & uneven), lovely room, pristine, beautiful bathroom and no shortage of anything. It seemed nothing was too much trouble.

Lovely freshly cooked breakfast. Only grumble (and we had to search for one) is the bed has supports underneath and so has made mattress like a small mound and so not a very good nights sleep. However this can soon be rectified and would stay here again.

Overall, very comfortable, well presented and thought out and welcoming stop.

Thank you.

1 night stay. Recommended. Fantastic.

Room warm, clean, all amenities expected, plus nice touches such as bottled water & Sky TV.

First class en-suite facilities.

Breakfast most impressive, hot, freshly cooked and presented in a manner that would not be out of place in an upmarket restaurant!
