We stayed here over Easter for a couple of days. What an amazing place to stay! Susan and George are so welcoming and helpful. The rooms are beautifully done out, great breakfast and very relaxing atmosphere. Great pub just down the road with excellent food. If you are into walking, beautiful scenery and bird watching this is the place to... More

My partner and i were looking for a few days away just to relax, we definatly found it here! We loved that it was right on the coast and the little summer house was great to sit and have a few glasses of wine! The pub just a few doors away was very friendly too and the meals were superb!... More

Booked as a walk in about 2pm before going off for a walk to John Paul Jones cottage. This is a small, really friendly isolated B&B off the beaten track but well worth tracking down. Susan and George are great fun to sit and talk to in the kitchen whilst a full Scottish breakfast is being cooked for you (just... More

We had originally thought The Old shop would be a one-night stopover but we were so lucky to be able to extend our stay. Susan and George are so welcoming and helpful it was hard to leave. The remoteness was just what we wanted along the firth but with easy access to other small villages as well as Dumfries only... More

Stayed for just one night with our friends as we were all attending a wedding where the Reception was being held just along the road at the Steamboat Inn. I rang Susan (the owner) a couple of days before our arrival to ask if it would be possible to have the rooms available for 11am as we needed to get... More

A superb B & B situated right on the beach by the Solway Firth. We were greeted by Susan & George who are superb hosts. Very friendly and extremely obliging, giving us a lift to and from the Wedding we were attending. The Old Shop is a beautifully decorated old cottage and the rooms have every facility and are very...

What a delighful B&B. The hosts Sue and George make you feel very welcome. The summerhouse at the end of the garden overlooking the beach is wonderful and hubby was very grateful that he could use it as his office on occassion. Breakfast was scrummy. Definately be back to stay next year when we visit the annual Playmobil exhibition in... More

Slightly off the beaten track, but very quiet with a pub 100yards down the lane. Because our numbers expanded, due to a late influx of nieces, Susan suggested the caravan in the garden, or the house two doors away. We went for the caravan option with breakfast thrown-in -not literally. Susan and George super friendly and informative. The caravan has... More
