The Bladnoch Inn

Just returned from a 2 night stay at this inn. The room was spotless and warm the beds were lovely and comfortable. The owner and his sons were so friendly and helpful as were the rest of the staff. We dined in the restaurant for Saturdays curry night . It was really tasty and good size portions . There is plenty of seating outside All in all had a great stay and will return and highly recommend .

We arrived today at 16:00. Two large portable signs outside saying come in we’re open and hours board stating 12 noon till 9pm. We parked at the side and walked around to the main entrance, upon which a member of staff came our and told us they were closed till 17:00 as the chef hadn’t arrived yet. I said that’s ok we were just after a couple of drinks not food, upon which she said sorry everything is off. Now after having worked in a pub before I know it takes two seconds to flick on the pumps, bottles are available, etc. I’m not sure wether they didn’t like the cut of our jib, weren’t keen that we had children with us or what, looking back as we left to see a waitress bringing chips out the kitchen was a nice touch.

We booked a table for 15 friends to enjoy Sunday lunch. Most of us chose the carvery. All of our food choices were served by very helpful staff., and the food was absolutely delicious. Everyone in our group was very impressed and will return again, and again. There is very little car parking space, on street parking is limited, so allow sufficient time to park if you have a booking. A bus service runs past the door, operated by Stagecoach. This is excellent cycling country and there is Bladnoch Distillery opposite. What more could you ask for?

Nice place to stay, especially as it is just opposite the distillery. We had nice and clean rooms and a wonderful dinner at the restaurant. Everyone was very friendly especially as we could not fully agree on the supported football team. Fully recommendation.

Same old cheap carvery, deep fryer roast potatoes, frozen veg, watery horseradish, dried up chicken, and good old gravy granules (surely nobody would make gravy like that) even looked like frozen Yorkshire's. Overpriced considering the quality of produce offered
