Outstanding!! From the best friendliest check in to an amazing room. Loved the little touches in the room and everything has been thought of including bottle opener and wine glasses!! A 10/10
Very impressed with the attention to detail.
Offered a flask of milk at reception on arrival. Would definitely recommend for stopover for early Ferry crossing.
Stayed in the absolutely beautiful Gloucester Suite and one of our 2 top favourite accomodations of our entire 6.5 weeks holiday around UK and Ireland. Other accommodation providers could certainly learn a lot about what travellers want and need from these 2 friendly hosts. Unfortunately we only had 1 night here as we had to catch the early morning ferry to Belfast. Would love to come back and stay longer.
This is a very well run quality place to stay the staff and property were exceptional the whole experience was far more than we expected

When booking, we thought this was a little on the expensive side, for what is classed as a guest house, but as we were attending the oyster festival thought that may be why there was a premium. However, the overall quality of the place, including wonderful breakfast, fully warrants the price; it is excellent, better than some 4* hotels we have stayed in.
This was our 2nd stay at Rhins of Galloway and we wouldn't stay anywhere else the evening before a ferry crossing. It is a wonderful accommodation both in terms of the standard of the rooms and the welcome by the owners. Highly recommended.
Fantastic short stay on a business trip into Stranraer. Excellent service and attention to detail. Fresh milk provided on arrival. Very clear instructions provided throughout on how to use all the various facilities. I stayed in the garden suite which was spacious, comfortable and a great place to work from. Comfortable bed. TV in the bathroom! Breakfast was delicious with an excellent choice. A real pleasure to stay here in great hospitality. Highly recommend 👍
This was a fantastic stay. The Rhins of Galloway is 3 miles from the ferry. Our ferry was running late. The owners assured us that we could check in even after 11pm. When we arrived they were happy and upbeat. They even had a flask of cold milk ready for us to have some tea.
The room was luxurious. We stayed in the suite which had 3 rooms. 1 bathroom 1 living room and 1 bedroom. The king sized bed was exactly what we needed. Most beds we slept on during our tour of the UK and Ireland were relatively stiff. Rhins came through with a soft but firm bed. The rooms were clean. Very clean.
As far as the normal "how do i: connect to wifi, lock the door, leave after hours and so on" questions...they have everything neatly written down on easy to read and understand cards. They have over 18 years of experience and have heard all the questions.
We were lucky enough to have breakfast included. They not only run the place, but they also are the head chefs!! My wife had a wonderful full breakfast and I had delightfully cooked over easy eggs and some bacon. It was hot and freshly cooked. They have a rather large menu for the operation they run. There was also continental items like fresh bread and fruit.
We loved the place.
The only thing I can think of as constructive criticism would be the shower was kind of odd, but we eventually figured it out. We don't have those kinds of showers in the states.
From the moment we arrived at the reception you were made to feel very welcomed, everything was explained to us. The room was excellent right down to the smallest of details ie a small pair of scissors to cut open your teabags
Stopped here for the ferry and would definitely return. Lovely big room, hearty and well cooked breakfast, very friendly welcome. Spotting scope and bird books in the dining room to watch the wildlife. Perfect poached eggs!
Lovely spacious room. Really clean and comfortable. Loved the added touch of fresh chilled milk provided. Breakfast was excellent and service was exceptional. Would definitely recommend
Brilliant welcome, with host doing everything he could to assist including providing crockery etc for a late takeaway. Brilliant facilities, spotlessly clean. Only downside was a crackly TV.
Fantastic stay, rooms very comfy and extremely clean.. hosts were brilliant, very welcoming and helpful - we will definitely stay again, thank you for everything.
Our stay at Rhins was excellent. Before arrival we received a very helpful email giving us an overview of the hotel and facilities including a recommendation on local restaurant fo an evening meal. Our room was 5 star, very clean with lovely new furniture. We received a warm welcome on arrival and our stay was excellent. We look forward to returning to stay at Rhins when next in the area.
Outstanding in all aspects. DO NOT MISS THIS ONE
it is delightful in presentation, cleanliness, food, service
By far the best establishment of its kind that I have been
lucky to have chosen. YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED
Excellent place to stay. Friendly staff, good room and great breakfast. Had a single room which was a decent size. The filter coffee bag, flask of fresh milk and chocolates in the room were nice extras
We think the view from the rooms at the rear has improved, as the hedge has been cut back - this was a new treat.
Great hosts and a delightful visit. Thank you!
I have stayed in a lot of hotels while travelling on business and obviously choose the cheaper hotels its very rare i would want to return for a family break but not the case with Rhins of Galloway everything was outstanding i had the garden suite for 2 nights and it was like being at home.
There was everything you could possibly need and the quality of everything was like you would have at home the service was outstanding the first morning i had breakfast to go dropped off the night before as i was leaving early and the next morning the most amazing cooked breakfast.
I will most definitely stay here again for business or pleasure
