We stayed here while our boat was out of the water for a few days. It was very convenient for the town and very comfortable. We had a good breakfast and were made to feel welcome. The price was very reasonable and we would stay again if we needed a bed on land.

I stayed here for a week while working at the nearby hospital. The room was massive, absolutely lovely with a comfy bed and black out curtains. The bathroom was a good size with a good shower. Everything was spotless. The location was great, a short walk from the town and walking distance from the hospital which suited me very well.... More

Only spent one night here this time, but as always the Guesthouse was clean, comfy, welcoming and warm. It is within easy walking distance of town centre. The facilities are excellent and the breakfast hearty!

We stayed for one night at Kathmore and Morven was friendly, funny and welcoming. She let us know her plans for the day so we could arrange arrival times. The tarriff's cheap and it's close to the town centre. Despite being next to the busy road out of town South, the double glazed windows kept out the noise adequately. There's... More
