Something a little bit different

Very grand hotel in a lovey setting. Bedrooms are very clean but rather old fashioned. Dinner was lovely, I found the food a breakfast limited. Overall an enjoyable stay and would visit again if in the area

Good value stay at Dumfriesshire country house

We had a lovely stay at Cally Palace. Very close to Gatehouse of Fleet and near lots of great walks. The reception room and grounds were lovely - the bedroom and swimming pool area were a bit tired. The food in the restaurant was fantastic and staff were great. We got a great deal so good value for money.

Relaxing 1 night stay.

1 night stay as part of a longer holiday. Stayed previously at the Cally Palace and had a great stay. The room was well appointed in a quiet area of the hotel and was very comfortable with views towards the woods at the rear of the hotel. We had an evening meal which was very enjoyable, our table being close to an open log fire. The hotel is located 5 minutes from the A75 but is far enough away that there is no noise from passing traffic. The breakfast was good, there being plenty of choice and the staff were friendly and helpful. Overall we enjoyed our stay and will return for future visits.

Swimming pool was freezing, jacuzzi wasn’t in use and food was terrible for a fussy eater. Didn’t effect our stay as we enjoyed lovely walks around the grounds and some quiet time away. Rooms are terribly outdated and basic tv which had interference on most channels.

Really friendly hotel, especially waiting/bar staff. Good choice of food, plenty for vegetarians, lots of activities around the hotel such as snooker/table tennis at no extra cost. The rooms are old fashioned in style but it suits the rest of the hotel. Would stay again.
