“It Doesn't Get Any Better Than This!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 9 November 2011

Arriving weary, tired and hungry, Robertson welcomed us to his wonderful establishment and showed us to our beautifully decorated, clean and comfortable room. Once we'd freshened up, he gave us directions to several fabulous local eateries, which were easy to locate and truly magificent fare was devoured. After a pleasant stroll around the town, we headed back to our room... More

“A true baptism of opulence”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 8 November 2011

I stayed at the Ferintosh guest house during September and found it to be very cosy and welcoming, the service was quite simply astounding, with every need catered for. The location of the house is also very nice and great for walks and exploring. I did a little rambling at the time and was astounded by the breathtaking setting of... More

reported to tripadvisor as a false review. Either this is a friend of a competitor or a review for some other B&B. These people never stayed in our house. We have registration information on all our guests- we know this is fake. More

“Scottish Delight”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 12 October 2011

We stayed at the Ferintosh for three nights and have to say it is one of the best experiences we have had at a B&B. Both Robertson and Emma are delightful interesting people and have created a lovely place for travellers to enjoy Dumfries. The B&B is located perfectly for a visitor, it is approx. a ten minute walk to... More

“Charming!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

Ferintosh Guest House is comfortably near the town centre and the railway station. We had a double bedroom. The bed was very comfortable and the room had everything we needed: bathrobes, Q-tips - even "whisky of the day"(this nice detail really melted my heart!) Breakfast was very tasty (I recommend haggis) and we had a nice chat with the owners.... More

“A home away from home!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 October 2011

This is a guest house I keep returning to - and there is a good reason: simply the best guest house I have stayed at in Britain. Situated in a quiet, yet central location in Dumfries, it is an ideal base for both town activities and for biking/hiking in the countryside. Rooms are clean and welcoming, with all the comforts...

“unreserved recommendation”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 10 October 2011

Stayed at 20 B&Bs en route from Lands End to John o'Groats by public transport. As 70 year olds we looked for comfort, quiet, service and generally good value. Like other places we stayed at in Scotland, Ferintosh met and exceeded expectations at average price. Had the added bonus for us of being close to station. Would stay there if... More
