    Booked a table for dinner and glad we did as it was really busy. They are dog friendly so we were allowed to bring our two dogs with us. The staff were wonderful and brought two bowls of water for the dogs. Service was quick and friendly food was amazing and great value for money. Highly recommended. Remember to call to book a table.

    Great base for exploring the region. Close to Castle Douglas and Kirkcudbright as well as Gatehouse itself. Comfortable, well appointed rooms, friendly staff and good restaurant. Highly recommended.

    I wish I could give the location an even higher rating. We stayed in the family room with a teen, a tween and two small dogs. We were all so happy. The accommodations were comfortable, the staff could not have been lovelier, but the location! We found Gatehouse of Fleet a bit accidentally whilst looking for a place to stay that was near the places we wanted to visit. The next time we are in Scotland, it will be the destination. Gorgeous and QUIET. Just what we needed!
