we had a lovely break at hentland hall the gardens were amazing a lovely place to sit and relax.our check in was anytime after 2pm ,we arrived about 2.15 to be told our room was not ready would be about 15 mins .we were offered tea or coffee while we waited,it was about 2.45 when we were told our room was ready ,it was on the second floor .we asked if there was a lift the receptionist said no i will get you a room on the first floor minutes later she came with the keys for room 109 the room was amazing /out of this world we could not have asked for anything more.we were asked if we needed help to our room.Dinner was included in the deal and it was great only tiny fault was with breakfast in the morning the bacon was cold i did mention it to the waiter 2 mins he returned with another rasher it was still cold ,i just left it a that ,i probably should have said more because full breakfast was quite cool, The staff throughout the hotel were pleasant and very helpful,we hope to return in the future

Beautiful surroundings and close to Dumfries, Gretna and Carlilse. Food was good and good choice for breakfast don't think you should have to pay extra for scrambled eggs and smoked salmon and other breakfast specials,been to lots of hotels who have this on the menu included. A note for disabled. There is a ramp at the front which takes you to a tiled area to enter at the side. This is ok if in a wheelchair but husband uses 2 sticks due to a disability and he slipped twice on the tiles because of the rain. A handrail at the front door would have made thinks much easier. Staf very helpful and friendly.

The Hotel has had a major refurbishment and it is quite impressive. The rooms were lovely and to a high standard. In general the staff were really nice and helpful, but at breakfast there was one lady member of staff who had obviously got out of the wrong side of the bed and didn't appreciate being asked if she could assist us. However this didn't detract from the overall experience. The food for both dinner and breakfast was very tasty. We will be back.

Went here with some friends as a treat for a friends birthday. My husband and I have been three times before but my friends had not. We all thoroughly enjoyed our overnight with dinner and breakfast. We had superior rooms which are lovely with first class fittings and decor. Can’t wait to return.

My partner and I stayed over for father’s day. It is a nice hotel, clean & modern, although we were extremely disappointed and have raised a complaint in return from our stay to the hotel and still awaiting a response 4 days on, due to the lift being broken and no one informing us of this prior to or on arrival when we asked where the lift was it was then when we were told it was broken and wouldn’t be fixed for a few days, being new parents to our 3month old baby isn’t ideal on a hotel stay to have to carry a pram, travel cot and luggage up stairs to our room as they do not have any rooms on the ground floor so I would recommend phoning ahead if you are staying at this hotel and need the lift to access your room as they don’t inform you of this and especially if you are travelling a distance to get there like myself I drove nearly 2hours to stay here and was disappointed to have travelled and to be faced with this inconvenience. It was more stress staying here than being at home I don’t need to climb stairs. The food and restaurant was nice although the restaurant service was a little slow and unorganised in regards to table service. We were asked by two different people to take our drinks orders and two other people to take our dinner orders. No one seemed to have a specific job which meant people were asking for orders when they have already been made. I hope to hear back from the hotel regarding my stay and hope this helps anyone planning a stay in the future either parents or anyone with a disability requiring a lift so they don’t have a wasted drive.

The hotel is set in beautiful grounds which were shown to their best advantage with the glorious weather we had during our stay. The owners are doing a fantastic job in restoring the hotel and the new wing which were in is really modern and fresh. I have only a couple of minor negative things to say 1. With an over the bath shower I think they really need grab rails to assist getting in and out. I know it’s probably not the look they are going for but given the age of most of our fellow guests it definitely needs consideration. 2. I am sure given that the showers are of the waterfall type most ladies would appreciate a shower cap to be provided. 3. This will possibly only be my view but what kind of glasses I have a drink out of is a very important part of my enjoyment of the drink. The gin glasses were absolutely spot on however the wine glasses in the dinning room were very disappointing. There should be room for your wine to breathe in the glass. It should not be filled to the brim. They were far too small to allow for full enjoyment of the wine. It little more attention to this area would be greatly appreciated by me at least. All in all we had a very enjoyable two night stay. All the staff we encountered were friendly and helpful and always seemed happy and cheerful.

We had a lovely night at Hetland Hall for our anniversary. Our room was clearly recently refurbished to a high standard and spotlessly clean. The staff were very welcoming and great to chat to and the food was great too.

lovely hotel, staff also attentive and only issue was in room design. In the room we stopped in the shower panel had been put in the wrong side so shower sprays out into shower room rather than being contained in the cubicle and only plugs are by the bed so unable to put up the ironing board

We had the fortune to upgrade to a suite at a reasonable price ( 107 ) . All I can say is from check in to check out everything was as expected plus more . All staff members were very polite , cheerful , informative and very helpful , the room was of very high standard . The food was excellent , again this must be down to the produce used and the well trained chef or chefs . waiting staff very efficient , friendly and polite . Nothing was any trouble regardless of what you were asking . This is a definite must return too hotel .
