A fabulous place to stay. Creetown is beautiful and the accommodation is friendly, safe, and spotlessly clean, as well as being very comfortable. It is also fantastic value. With a very comfy bed, great shower, free tea and coffee and a TV in the bedroom, this was a superb place in which to stay and unwind after a long day's travel. The manager is a lovely gentleman and was very helpful. I will look forward to staying here again soon

Excellent accommodation and a very good price.

I didn't know what to expect as this is a hostel and was only using it as the B&B I normally use was full. However, I was so impressed I will stay again. I had a double room en-suite with fabulous Wifi and an excellent shower. Everything was super clean and the bed was comfy. The communal kitchens have free tea/coffee, microwave, kettle and fridge/freezer. You provide milk and your own food. Most guests left some food for others to use...I had some free Weetabix. The guests I met were all holidaymakers travelling about Scotland. Check in was handled well as nobody was there when I arrived. But I had been called some hours earlier and was texted the entry code for the lock and told which room, they room key was in the door. Everything was as described and it was simple checking in and out the next day. I was also told that the local restaurant wasn't open that day and too bring food or be prepared to drive, not a problem if you know in advance. Also Scotland's cheapest petrol and diesel station is in Creetown. I was very impressed on what was available so cheaply and now question why I pay so much more just to have someone cook me my breakfast. I have Barholm Accommodation earmarked for more trips to this part of Scotland. Reccommended.

Lovely stay for the price

Lovely place to stay for the price, staff are excellent and very friendly and the room was comfortable enough for the price point with a good shower (temperature and water pressure), however, there was a smell of dog to the room (which we did not raise with the staff as the accommodation is pet friendly), and unfortunately due to the sensitive fire alarms we could do anything about this (aerosols would have set off the alarm). Bathroom had some mould around the shower door, and on the ceiling (painted over) due to the underpowered extractor fan and inability to naturally ventilate due to the sensitive fire alarm. Radiator was quite small to the size of the room, due to the cold weather it was pretty cold at times but extra duvets were available to us. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and we would stay again but you need to be accepting and aware of the price point, and the budget nature of the accommodation.
