The hotel and it's rooms look a bit dated; The bar and restaurant are small (and look dated as well), but this is a charm for this hotel. New Luce is a village inhabited by mosty elderly people, so this hotel looking modern would be inimaginable. When we were there some locals were in the bar and we had a... More

Stayed one night near the start od our Souhtern Upland Way walk. Despite the fact we did not have a reservation and arrvied just after lunch closing time (i.e., 2PM) we were given a room and offered lunch. The room was comfortable (if a bit cold), there was plenty of hot water and the room was clean and quiet. The... More

Popped in for a pint after a walk across the moors. Made welcome. Decent pint of real ale. Relaxed atmosphere. Quaint framed pictures of local interest. Easy parking. And... no piped muzac.All in all - a place to visit.

It's going to be a pleasure writing this review! But where to start?? At the beginning, I suppose. A friend and I arrived on our motorbikes in the beautiful little village of New Luce. We were met with smiling hosts, Paul and Alison who immediately showed us the best place to park up and offered to show us our rooms... More

Only a few minutes drive off the main A75 route lies the pretty village of New Luce, and within it, the Kenmuir Arms. We received a warm friendly welcome from our hosts at the start of our two night stay during which both the food & accommodation were excellent. Not to mention the real ales on offer! Whether it's walking,... More

We had an overnight stay at the Kenmuir Arms Hotel and really enjoyed it. The new owners were very welcoming, the food and drinks were excellent and the room was clean and comfortable. Relaxing atmosphere in the bar on a Friday night and enjoyed the banter with the regulars. A lovely tranquil area to visit.Will definitely go again.

Recently re-opened under new management, this place is a gem! The food is superb - try the onion bhajis! - and the ale is a testament to the cellar work. The experiece made all the difference to our holiday - can't wait to get back!
