Kirkconnel Hall Hotel

Kedvelték: Everything, John came out to greet us on arrival (last minute booking). He showed us everywhere we could pitch up, told us the open and close times for the toilets. Extremely friendly people couldn't offer more of they tried. I met Angie and Babs. Everyone was so welcoming. Thank you all so much for a lovely stay! We will definitely be back.

Kedvelték: Lovely man working at the hotel, late check in available and a nice location.

Nem kedvelték: Didn’t seem super organised and toilets shut at 11pm which was a little annoying but overall a great stay.

Kedvelték: I have to say that the best thing is the location, in respect to the M6 motorway junction. A perfect stop-off when traveling from London to the Highlands: 370 miles on the motorway, and 1/4 mile local roads. After our days out, it was equally nice to get back to base so easily. The grounds are nice for strolling through, and there is a museum feel to the place - with bits and pieces from days gone by dotted around. Great conversation material for inquisitive youngsters. The proprietors are a lovely couple; very welcoming and helpful - even loaned me a pump to top up my tyres. There was another gentleman there who told me lots of local stories, and showed me where I could find Napoleon's tree. We didn't stay inside the hotel, but I believe there was even more atmosphere there; something to discover around every corner; pictures and statues - and probably a ghost too (or is that just my wishful thinking?) Despite the nearness to the motorway, the grounds were quiet, and the traffic noise was not an issue. It would have been even nicer if there was somewhere to sit and eat; either inside the caravan, or outside; somewhere to enjoy our Haggis, Neeps and Tatties. There was wifi, but the reception in the caravan seemed to depend on the receiving device and atmospherics. We could pick up wifi on a laptop, but not an iPad. Just a few feet towards the hotel, the iPad could get a signal. Having said that though, I have never had good wifi on a campsite. Oh, and not a midge to be seen.

Kedvelték: Easy to get to if traveling up the motorway and just need a place to pitch your tent for the night

Nem kedvelték: There are no showers and the only washing facilities are within the toilet block and are just a few sinks (plenty of hot water so that was OK) Tolet block is locked up at 10:30pm As the site is situated very close to the motorway it is therefore also very noisy 24 hours of the day! There is also a rail line adjacent to the other side of the camp site which is also very noisy when the frequent trains go past
