“The Garret Hotel earns points for its prime spot in Kirkcudbright, mere steps from the harbour and town's attractions; a real plus for exploring the area on foot or by bike. I particularly like the sound of the lively pub downstairs, complete with a proper beer garden, balanced by quiet, renovated rooms. It strikes me as a comfortable, unstuffy base with friendly service and hearty breakfasts, ideal for a relaxed break.”
