We received a very warm welcome with afternoon tea & cakes provided.Our bedroom and ensuite were about the largest & best equipped that we have ever come across in a B&B. There is an excellent sitting/dining room for guests sole use with TV books & magazines to hand. Excellent breakfast menu choices are provided & you must try at least one evening meal (we took 3 out of 4 evenings ) again you are consulted on your choice over breakfast ; professional standard cuisine.Easy drive to town from Twynholm.

Pleasant hosts, comfortable en-suite room with plenty of space. Food excellent. I enjoyed both dinner on the night I arrived and breakfast the following morning.

I had booked fly-fishing lessons from Sue (who is a qualified instructor), which I can also recommend highly, so it made sense to stay with them as well. I would stay there again, even without going for the fishing instruction.

We came for the fishing and for tuition by Sue. There were no disappointments, and we shall return for more of the same next year. Sue and Simon are very welcoming, the accommodation is very comfortable, and the culinary skills most tempting. Sue is an absolutely excellent fly-fishing tutor, and we had two splendid days on loch and river with her. Linthorpe is also well-placed for exploration of Dumfries and Galloway, so we can only make completely positive noises! Go and see for yourselves, and go for longer than the three nights which we stayed!

We would recommend Linthorpe to any traveller who enjoys comfort, excellent food and good hosts. The B&B is set in peaceful countryside and is an excellent base for exploring the area.
We went to the Wickerman Festival and they did not mind us coming and going at late hours, excellent.
