Lovely property. A bit different and certainly not for kids. It's a renovated, very grand old house. No reception, all pre arranged entry codes, so little or no human contact. Grab your own breakfast from the provided foods. You can even make your own eggs if you want. Certainly not for everyone, but we enjoyed it.

Excellent in Every Way!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! It was spacious, tastefully decorated and very comfortable. The soaking tub was amazing! We also enjoyed using the well stocked, very clean community kitchen to make our breakfast. It was right around the corner from The Dock, a great Irish Pub. We highly recommend The Riverside Inn if you are visiting New Glasgow!!! Excellent in every way!

We are so glad we had chosen this place! Nice, clean, well-maintaned B&B. Breakfast was a little too basic, but it's OK. And we even had no time to use their outside hottub and inside sauna :( Definitely would take it the next time around. Thank you, guys!
