Top Wigtown Hotel Reviews

Craigmount

10/10 Excellent

"Nicole & Mal are a lovely couple and couldn’t do enough for us. Gave helpful advice on local places to eat as well as knowledge of Wigtown. The property was very homely, lovely room with book theme and comfy beds. Nice bathroom with modern shower. Living room downstairs to use was also very cosy and comfortable. Breakfast was amazing, all local produce and even went out of their way to get the Rice Krispies that we asked for because they had run out. Would highly recommend to anyone visiting the area to stay here."

The Ship Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Second stay at the Ship Inn, room is perfect, breakfast excellent. Food is terrific although the restaurant was almost full (apparently it usually is…) and this perhaps reflected in the service last night. Example, we were finished our starters and had to chase our drinks. But granted restaurant was very busy. Would certainly use again if opportunity arises."

The Garret

10/10 Excellent

"Enjoyed two night stay here. The room was really nicely appointed and the food in the bar and restaurant was excellent - delicious, quality ingredients, nicely presented and very generous portions. Definitely recommend."

The Bladnoch Inn

10/10 Excellent

"Lovely country pub with beautiful rooms upstairs. Really friendly staff and the view on the way to my room were the best I had all day, and I had covered 270 miles 😳"

The Crown Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Staff were super friendly and helpful. Hotel seemed newly renovated and was clean and comfy. Room had some extra amenities than most hotels, which we loved. Friendly locals and good food!"

Woodlyn Guest House

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely beautiful. Fabulous Room, Spotless. Breakfast was huge and very tasty. Wonderful hosts, Kev and Nicki. Will definitely be back."
