Beattock Holidays

Hotel and grounds are rather run down but trying. Bathroom in particular had seen better days. Room was clean and staff were friendly and helpful. Our room name was Skye. The view was amazing and it was great watching Ferries come and go. Didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on food. Is a good 1/2 hour walk into town. However there is a bus stop almost opposite and a local taxi firm. One thing that really needs addressing is the Hotels front door. Our room was directly above it and it slams shut. It was really annoying. You’d just be dropping off and it would go BAM. They really need to fit a soft close hinge. Didn’t get the chance to raise directly with staff as everyone was busy when we left. If you’re after a reasonably priced room with great views and don’t mind a bit of shabby it’s fine.

Hotel was very comfortable. Beds had mattress toppers. Very cosy. Breakfast had lots of choice and fresh fruit salad was delicious.

right next to Glasgow Central

Large room central to our destination. Good facilities if you want to cook for yourself. The only problem was someone opposite our room set the fire alarms off and the hotel had to be evacuated until the fire brigade checked it to be safe. Car parking near by also.
