Excellent stay
We stayed here for three nights, and Kevin and Nicky were really friendly. They made sure we had the best possible stay, with spacious rooms and a perfect breakfast and just a couple of minutes away from the high street. I'll definitely be back here next time I'm in Gatehouse.

Nikki & Ken run a 5 star guest house! It’s beautifully appointed with large rooms, modern en-suite bathrooms, with every amenity. The choice for breakfast is excellent. There is also a comfortable lounge. It’s a very short walk to the pretty village, so all in all, is an excellent place to stay & we can highly recommend it!

Amazing place and people
Welcomed by Kevin at the door, he made checking in easy and quick. The room was amazing. The breakfast was very impressive, both the range of items available and the quality. We can honestly say this the best guest house we have stayed in and wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.

Had a great 2 day stay here with my partner. The room was fantastic and the bathroom amazing. Choice of bath or large walk in shower. The owners Kevin and Nikki were great hosts and very friendly nothing was too much trouble. And then there was the breakfast, was something for everyone including warm croissants and the most amazing cooked breakfast, loosen your belt when eating it. Would recommend for anyone and hope to stay there again.
