We had a fantastic stay at The Cally Palace Hotel. I visited with my son, daughter-in-law, and grandson — the boys enjoyed a round of golf while we girls headed to the Arts and Crafts Festival in Kirkcudbright. The hotel is full of charm, with beautiful surroundings, comfortable rooms, and very friendly staff. The food was excellent, and the whole atmosphere was warm and welcoming. We’ll definitely be back!

A really nice place, friendly and helpful staff and a generous size room. The hotel could do with a bit of TLC in places, but overall value for money and enjoyed the short stay.

Great place for short break in Gatehouse
Beautiful building and grounds, staff professional and friendly. Was a very reasonable price for bed and breakfast however rooms and corridors are tired, but I expect there are rooms that cost more that had been refurbished. A property of this size and grandeur must cost a fortune to renovate.

Great stay
We had a great overnight stay. We used the pool facilities. Everything was really good. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. It was so good to see where my dad, sister and brother were evacuated to from Glasgow when it was used as a school.
I felt the hotel was a bit tired especially the bathroom but didn’t detract from our stay.
The breakfast was perfect and the price we paid for the overnight stay was very reasonable. Would definitely recommend it.

Something a little bit different
Very grand hotel in a lovey setting. Bedrooms are very clean but rather old fashioned. Dinner was lovely, I found the food a breakfast limited.
Overall an enjoyable stay and would visit again if in the area

Could not be more accommodating
The hotel staff were exceptionally polite and helpful. My husband has a dietary condition and the chef and staff went above and beyond to make him food that he could enjoy even though it wasn’t on the menu. The hotel staff went out of their way to be pleasant and make this an extremely enjoyable stay. Barry in the restaurant went above and beyond. He is an exceptional member of staff.

Quiet and bucolic location
Our stay was in mid-March and the hotel was very quiet at that time. Our room on the ground floor was very convenient for the hotel pool which had a hot tub and sauna. The pool water was a bit too cold but the hot tub and sauna were very good. There are walking trails and a small lake nearby which is great for birdwatching. Also views of a ruined castle within walking distance. Restaurant food was nicely presented.
