Mabie House Hotel

Lovely location, quality food, excellent service and bedding. What more could you need?||Some of the reviews said the decor is dated which it is, but it’s in keeping with the age of the property. |The room was comfortable and clean with iron, hairdryer and bathroom amenities. ||Any yardstick for a hotel should be the sleep quality and it didn’t disappoint. Princess and the Pea deep mattress with quality linen made for a great night’s sleep.||Dog friendly though you can’t eat in the restaurant with your dog which is unusual in my experience, I was reserved a place in the reception area. My only suggestion for improvement would be to allow well behaved dogs in the restaurant during the day as it was quite isolating. The grounds are extensive and ideal for dog walking.||Overall, highly recommended for an overnight stay.

One of the best hotels I have stayed in for quite a while. Fantastic rooms, spacious, great decor. Great staff, friendly, relaxed, don't stand staring at you in the dining hall. Wonderful setting for casual strolls or if you wish, long hikes into the forest areas connected to the hotel. Highly recommend.

Just had our wedding here at the weekend (16.08.2025) and what a weekend it was. We started off with a lovely meal on Friday night which was delicious. The rooms were all lovely and clean and super comfortable. The staff at Mabie House couldn’t have been more attentive and helpful, they made us feel so at home. From our initial visit to Mabie House to leaving on Sunday morning, Phillipa, Sam, and the team met our every wish and then some! Our wedding was everything that we wanted and more due to their organisation and attention to detail. Nothing was a hassle or a problem for this amazing team of staff! So many of our guests have commented saying it was the best wedding they have ever been to. The grounds of Mabie House are stunning and made for the perfect backdrop for our special day. We really had the best day ever, it was perfect. Thank you so much again to everyone at Mabie House, it truly was a day to remember!

Staff are amazing, they made us feel so welcome. Loved the whole feeling of the place stayed 3 nights and parked our vintage cars there. Great for taking an old car to on a tour of Scotland, very safe. Food delicious. Rooms clean and comfortable. Dumfries and Galloway so pretty great for driving through. We will be going back, one of my favourite hotels!

Absolutely fantastic hotel – I can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment you arrive, the atmosphere is warm, cosy, and genuinely welcoming. The rooms are spotless and beautifully designed, offering both comfort and style. Basil the parrot is an absolute delight and adds a unique charm to the stay. Every member of staff is friendly, attentive, and goes out of their way to make you feel at home. A truly memorable experience.

This is seriously my happy place. I travel to the area with work and usually stay in Dumfries, but one night decided to come just a few miles outside to Mabie house. As I drove up the tree lined approach I started to feel ..... calm. When I entered the wood panelled hallway I felt .... safe and at home. The building and gardens are like nowhere else I have stayed. Just a wonderful sense of peace. I am waxing lyrical I know. But this place deserves it. Dinner is superb: tasty and generous portion. I've since been back multiple times including for a personal holiday with my dog. Many of the bedrooms are huge, like the size of a whole flat. All are spotlessly clean. The furnishings are not bling, and not particularly modern, but everything seems just perfect. You are lucky if you find this place.

Such a lovely experience. Stayed here as two couples. I can honestly say that I have never felt so relaxed at a hotel. The staff are super friendly and make you feel right at home. Rooms are clean and comfortable, I slept so well. Breakfast and supper very good and the setting was superb. We took our vintage cars and they were super safe with lots of space for parking the trailers and trucks for them if needs be.

We went here for a meal. You need to pre-book. It was fabulous. Food served on hot plates. Food fresh, tasty and hot. Prompt friendly, pleasant service from staff. Highly recommended.
