Had to cancel due to getting COVID but was charged full amount (including meals)
Reviewed By John MI had booked two nights dinner, bed and breakfast with a group of friends, but the day before going, tested positive for COVID. On the day I was meant to arrive, I got a phone call from a gentleman (phoning on behalf of the Manager) demanding full payment of £214 - I had already paid £25 deposit. Whilst I understand it is not unusual for an hotel to charge one night for a no-show, I feel it is unacceptable and greedy to charge for two nights, plus two dinners and two breakfasts I didn’t get.

Relaxing break
Reviewed By whytea18Just returned from a two night stay at Hetland Hall Hotel, with my sister and mum and we had a great time! We had a deluxe family room (double bed and sofa bed). The room was beautifully decorated, beds super comfy and lovely views over the grounds. The bathroom was moden with a massive walk in shower and spa bath. We had drinks on the terrace both days and it was very relaxing sitting in the sun. We ate breakfast (included in room rate) and dinner on both days. Choice of food was excellent. Breakfast had pastries, fruit, toast etc with choice of cooked breakfast too. Dinner was delicious, over the course of the two days we had goats cheese, tempura, pate, scallops, fish and chips, salmon, burgers and lasagne. Food is served freshly cooked and piping hot! Perfect. My sister would highly recommend the Biscotti dessert which she had both nights. The staff at the hotel were fantastic. The manger on duty (Maggie?) Was very friendly and attentive. A special mention to Scott who was doing a great job especially when it got really busy. Really nice people all round! We would definitely recommend. Thanks for a relaxing stay!

Lovely stay!
Reviewed By inishskiMe and my partner thoroughly enjoyed our stay in this BnB, hosted by Jackie. The house is beautiful inside and out, the host Jackie, is super-accomodating and friendly. She made sure we have everything we need and cooked up a scrumptious breakfast every morning for us (her Haggis is to die for!). Very clean and comfortable rooms, beautiful view from the window. We would highly recommend this stay. Thank you Jackie! From Inna and James

Hotel is completely unmanned, rooms are dirty and no-one cares about your bad experience
Reviewed By BertieBrackenUnfortunately the Rivendell had no redeeming noteworthy features at all. There was however, plenty to complain about, please see below. I would not recommend this property for any stay on any occasion. The hotel check in experience is very underwhelming with no-one to welcome you as a guest, although the website reviews state how every guest receives a warm welcome and how important that is to them. This property does not reflect the reviews given on the booking agency website either. You are greeted by a very tatty screwed up notice on the door stating that you have to telephone to check in. No-one answers your call and you're left wondering what to do next. Eventually someone calls and gives you a code to a key box in the entrance where your key and everyone else's room key is hanging, you're told where and when breakfast is served, that's it, that's the extent of the warm welcome. Then on entering the superior room you've booked, you're greeted with a cold room, broken and tatty furniture and a dirty bathroom, complete with the previous occupant's rubbish and discarded sanitary towel on the floor. All this and booking agency website's award to the property for their enhanced health, safety and cleanliness, really? Also, the property is completely unlocked and unsecured, which gives the guest no security or peace of mind. There are instructions displayed on the front door not to drop the latch, so that anyone can get in to the property at any time. When you have the audacity to ring and complain, this complaint is then sneered at, and on the request for a refund, a complete denial that there are any problems. We did not stay at the property and left almost immediately. As a guest, I would expect as a minimum that my room is clean, safe and secure, this property did not offer any of these requirements. I also complained to the booking agency website who have also contacted the property and received no replies. The hotel clearly do not care about anyone as a guest, or customer or indeed their property. I have tried to obtain a refund without success, either from the property or from the booking agency website. It is noteworthy that the booking agency website do not help or are able to offer a refund as the booking agency if the property choose not to reply to their messages. After complaining further to the booking agency website they just redirected me back to the property to make another complaint, which it’s not worth doing when I’ve already been refused any recompense.

A warm Scottish welcome awaits you at Glenlossie Guesthouse. Excellently located with private parking off the road and only 5 minute walk to the town centre. We also have a ground floor room with disability access available. Check in and check out is through our sister hotel, Dumfries Caledonian which is located next door. Breakfast can be pre-booked and is also served at Dumfries Caledonian.
Swore at by the apparent owner!

A good play to stay to explore the Solway
Reviewed By Jim MThis hotel is undergoing refurbishment nevertheless it did not spoil our 3 night stay. The bottom floor of the hotel has been almost totally refurbished. Service by staff was exceptional, very welcoming & friendly. Room was fine, clean, comfortable and suited our purpose. It is not the Ritz but is definitely not the Pits . Having travelled worldwide over the years, the room is fine. It was regularly cleaned each day. Breakfast and dinner meals are very good and well worth the money both in selection, quality and quantity. Hotel is ideally situated in the centre of the town of Annan, which has an interesting history. Car parking is fine (albeit not easily signposted) from the main street in Annan - had no problems with that.
