    Leaving!

    Craigmount is above a 5* rating. Nicole and Mal have thought of everything to make the stay the best possible experience, from the pleasant and welcoming greeting to the moment you leave. Our room was amazing with a Peter Pan theme, it was quiet, spotless and provided everything you might need. The bed and bedding is first class. The attention to detail goes above and beyond and second to none. Breakfast and evening meal was fantastic with so much choice. I can honestly say our hosts and the accommodation were outstanding. Wished we could have stayed much longer.

    Nothing to dislike.

    Good location on the edge of Wigtown, the ‘Book Capital of Scotland’, but only a short walk into town. We had a comfortable en-suite room named ‘Ring of Bright Water’ and themed after the author Gavin Maxwell. We had planned ahead and booked an evening meal of home cooked chicken curry and lasagne. Both dishes were tasty and plentiful. Breakfast in the morning was cooked to order and superb. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts. Thank you for making us feel welcome.

    Navigating the driveway in our large van was a little tight, but certainly manageable - a very minor quibble when everything else was so wonderful.

    Excellent location for a book shopping trip to Wigtown. I honestly wish we had been able to stay more than one night - the hosts were wonderful - very friendly and gracious with advice and recommendations for our continued journey to Glasgow and Edinburgh (Mal recommended taking the coastal road which was a scenic delight). Breakfast was superb - my first time trying haggis and black pudding, both of which were terrific. The rooms were spotless, spacious, and well appointed and the beds were quite comfortable. If our future travels brings us to the area, this will be our first choice for accommodations!

    We might have traded the sea-view for the extra flight of stairs: we being there to celebrate 80th this might not be a matter for the sprightly 70 year olds we once were. Wigtown seemed to be mostly closed - or open when convenient for shopkeepers - not just books - we failed to find an available splurge dinner venue to round off our trip having stupidly decided to stay Mon/Tues (this of course is no reflection on Craigmount itself.) The Co-op was the only store open 8am-10pm in the village. Isle of Whithorn was beautiful and boasted a very pleasant community cafe but again it closed at 3pm.

    Good breakfast (pre-ordered for next day). Lots of books available. Good TV with iplayer available. V Good Wi-fi connection

    It’s a beautiful house. Well maintained. The room was beautiful with lovely little touches, like a disposable shower cap. shampoo, conditioner and body wash provided in a dispenser in the shower. There was a hairdryer in the drawer along with an emergency sewing kit and first aid kit.

    Craigmount is perfectly situated if you want to visit the bookshops in Wigtown, which are all within easy walking distance. It is also a good base from which to explore both the Machars and the Rhinns of Galloway. The hosts, Nicole and Malcolm, are friendly and helpful and serve a good breakfast with plenty of choice. The rooms are comfortable and well furnished and each one has its own book theme. There is a guest lounge to relax in, with plenty of choice of books and games. We enjoyed our stay there and are happy to recommend it to others.
