Detailed Reviews
I can't recommend this place highly enough. Beautiful room with incredible antique furniture and period detail, extremely warm welcome, and a delicious breakfast (gluten-free on request). I don't usually sleep too well on the first night in a new place but I slept like a log here - I think it was the combination of a very comfy bed and a homely, welcoming atmosphere. One drawback for some might be the fact that there isn't an ensuite, but I still had my own (very nice) bathroom just across the hallway. The lack of an ensuite is more than compensated for by the price, and it allows the rooms to keep their historic character, so I think it's a good thing. Overall this place offers incredibly good value, and it's worth booking direct. I was just here on a stopover on my way from the Highlands, but I wish I'd had time to explore Ecclefechan and the surrounding area, which seem well worth a visit. Next time, hopefully - I'll certainly be back!

I cannot recommend this place more highly. Stayed here with my dog last weekend. Beautiful antique furniture, exquisite taste, delightful host who couldn't do enough for me (even, when I arrived late into the evening and frazzled from a long journey, I mentioned in conversation that I had a can of M&S G&T to help me wind down when I stopped - he came back 5 mins later with s surprise glass with ice & lemon, so thoughtful!), just perfect. Will definitely be back!

Stayed one night with our dog in the most amazing four poster room. Everything is spotlessly clean, the interiors are beautifully decorated and furnished with some wonderful antique pieces. Very comfortable stay, great breakfast and friendly accommodating service. Highly recommended.

I stopped here as one of a party of 6 during a cycling trip from Lands End to John O Groats and from our first arrival, the owner was very welcoming and polite. He gave us somewhere to put our bike and showed us to our rooms which were fantastic.
During our 12 night trip we scored each of the B&Bs we stayed at and although this one was not the most expensive, it was the most liked by the group. A very high standard house with excellent facilities and a great breakfast. You won't regret booking here.

Alex our host greeted 3 very wet cyclists with open arms. All our wet gear was dried in time for us to go out for an evening meal. The house is tastefully decorated and the beds are so comfortable.
The attention to detail is what makes this an outstanding place to stay...... nothing is too much trouble.
The breakfast is hearty and fresh eggs were used straight from their own hens.

Craig and Alex are excellent hosts. The house is lovely and the breakfast room is really homely. A great breakfast and plenty of variety. The two front bedrooms are very spacious and I stayed in the rear room which was lovely and is just about to be renovated. It is my second stay there and I was very pleased they had room for me. Although the rooms are not en-suite there are two bathrooms shared between three rooms so availability was fine. Everywhere was clean and rooms were a comfortable temperature. Would really recommend them.

We were absolutely impressed with everything at The Carlyle House. The decor and furnishings are so beautiful and tastefully done; the room good and large; the off-suite bathroom very nice also AND the breakfast - superb! We would definitely stay again if in the Ecclefechan area.

This establishment is very well located just off the motorway. Our room was large and comfortable although the iron bedsteads were rather low-slung but mercifully soft! The bathroom was down the hall and very small with no light over the sink which made shaving hazardous! Breakfast was plentiful although the coffee was rather weak for my taste, but considering a double room was only £60, one could hardly complain. I consider it excellent value and its 60's ambience was rather endearing. Definitely worth considering although don't expect anything more than a very average meal at the restaurant in the village if you need an even inf meal

This is a regular stop off on our way further north twice a year. It must be around 10 years since our first stay here, when run by the mother of the present owner.
We can park our boat/trailer round the back overnight, and the dog can stay in the room.
The owners make sure we have everything we need and are most welcoming. The (large) rooms have been recently decorated, and are maintained to a high standard.
There are several good walks nearby, and plenty of places of interest. We usually eat at the Kings Hotel in Lockerbie when staying here, just a few miles up the road.
Good value and a good breakfast!
