Hotels Near Mollance Farm Caravan Park in Castle Douglas

Lovely hotel. Some of it rather tired and dated and needs a good update. There weren’t enough staff for the number of guests but those staff that were there were very helpful. They were just struggling to do their job as there wasn’t enough of them and often you’d have to ask to get things a couple of times when dining as they’d forget, eg asking for mayonnaise/ketchup etc. The set menus for package deal were repetitive and pretty boring. Mushroom risotto 3 nights in a row for example. They accommodated dietary needs eg coeliac but sometimes there was confusion around what was and what wasn’t gluten free. The pool area was nice, unfortunately the jacuzzi wasn’t working. There’s a lovely outside seating area at the back with big granite like benches and tables. Plus a couple of tables and plastic chairs on a terrace by the conservatory and bar which were lovely to sit in the sunshine. Lovely grounds for walks or a round of golf. Lovely lounges with old comfortable chairs to relax in. We also used the table tennis and pool table. The bedroom we had was spacious, 2 large wardrobes, a bathroom and a separate shower room with toilet. Tea and coffee making facilities. The beds were comfortable. The room just needed some TLC but was clean and tidy. We were in the Forest Wing and were a large family group. Trying to get hold of reception prior to our holiday was a nightmare, they never answer the phone. Had to go through Bespoke Hotels. However they were very accommodating when asking for special requests as our family were celebrating a very special occasion.

What a great stay we had here, great location, amazing staff, lovely comfortable room with a great view . The staff were so helpful and could not have done more to make us feel so welcome. This hotel is situated in beautiful grounds with lovely walks. We can’t wait for our return visit

Stayed here for a birthday celebration long weekend with my partner. Freya was a fantastic host and very accommodating and helpful. Ample parking outside the property for cars, and grounds very clean. There was accommodation in a separate building in the grounds which can be stayed in also. Good location, we drove down but a hop, skip and jump from Dumfries train station. 10-15 min walk to town centre, 25 minute walk from Crichton park and 10 minute drive to Dumfries Royal infirmary. Room itself very modern, clean and quiet. Stayed in a double room and it had an en suite toilet and shower - well equipped and shower was fab; great water pressure and never wanted to get out! Bed was comfortable and lovely bedding. Very nice touches in the room for residents: coffee machine with nice Costa capsules, biscuits and equipped with iron and board. Got breakfast as part of our stay and was good quality full breakfast. Was just what we needed to set us up before Parkrun! Freya was very good at suggesting where to visit in the local area and we will be sure to visit again soon, we had a relaxing stay. Would recommend for anyone, staying for a work trip, visiting friends or family or having a break away. Thanks a mill!

In the heart of Robert Burns history is this little piece of history. I would advise you to take the walk around the grounds following the crystal clear lake around to the hermitage where the poet penned some of his famous lines. Previous reviews I read worried about my room being tired in decor but found it well furnished & well kept. Yes the building is old it's a historic place so some floors are uneven etc . There is fishing on the river if that's something you would like to do. Amazing nature around the grounds unspoilt area. The staff were really friendly and accommodating and the food was lovely. Would definitely return, we were booked in Hawthorn with a lake view. The only thing if your a light sleeper is you are above the games room if people are playing pool at night. Also if you need a socket take an extension by bed lead (1 cpap user) .
