With 20 excellent reviews (now 21 ) what can I add without repeating what has gone before. Suffice to say that only the deteriorating weather cut short our stay. Our No1 choice next time we are in the area. more

We stayed at Hawthorn House on the weekend of the 27th of March 2009 for some much needed R & R. We got that in spades full. The en-suite room we were in (The King Size Room) was lovely and had a great view over the beach and the sea. The room is tastefully decorated with a sort of Egyptian... more

I couldn't recommend this bed and breakfast highly enough: I had a completely restful two days and was sorry to leave. The drive in and out of Port William is long but beautiful, and Hilary and Tim are really welcoming when you reach the village. The view from the front bedroom is superb; the ultra-deep bath just too comfortable to... more

I cant say enough good things about Tim, Hilary & wee Ted the dog! On arrival we were made to feel very welcome, the King size ensuite looks exactly as it does on the website (unlike most places) & what a view! Unfortunately the weather wasnt the best but who can control that! We had everything we needed in the... more

Very good of you to write a review - Thanks very much. Shame the weather was not so good, but I bet it added to the tank driving experience -plenty of mud!! We are very grateful you have taken the time to record such kind comments. We hope to welcome you back in the future. Tim & Hilary (& Ted)

What a wonderful place to stay. I stayed on my own for four days and relished the view, the peace and quiet, the welcome, the excellent breakfast (and shortbread in the room), the comfort - and Ted. Excellent value with fine attention to detail. Tim and Hilary were also mines of information about the area which really helps you to... more

We had a superb time staying with Tim and Hilary when visiting the area for a friend's wedding. They gave us a warm welcome despite the awful weather when we arrived. Their company was enjoyable and friendly, but not intrusive. The breakfast was delicious including scrambled eggs and salmon and a beautiful bowl full of prunes, figs, peach slices etc.... more

What a lovely place to stay! Just like home from home. A lovely setting overlooking the sea at Luce Bay. Friendly and relaxed. Ideal base for seeing around beautiful Galloway and the Isle of Whithorn. Would certainly use this B&B again when in the area. Thanks Tim and Hilary for a lovely stay. We can also recommend the Clansman Restaurant... more
