Birchtree Hotel

Stayed stayed 5 nights with my dog while my wife was in Dumfries hospital very welcoming staff brilliant rooms were spotless . They serve a great cooked breakfast & serve food all day till 8pm .
Would definitely recommend &. Very reasonably priced

Stayed last night , lovely staff , lovely food , lovely clean rooms. Wish we come off stayed longer. Stayed in the family room. Everything was just lovely x

This establishment is now one of my favourites in the UK.
All staff are lovely, very friendly and pleasant.
Rooms are clean, comfortable and well serviced.
Food is amazing, great menu choice and breakfast will sort you for the day.
Each time I've stayed I've been a walk in at time of stay and its never been a problem.
Highly recommend if you're in the area for rooms, food or a friendly beer.

Stayed here for four nights with my husband. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The only gripe was the fans outside the building beside our room which started at 7.30 in the morning until 8pm. Tea, coffee, etc was always topped up for us whilst we were out. Breakfast was great and the guys in the kitchen were excellent.

The hotel was rated as a 3 star hotel. So I have rated it on that premise and not as if it was a 5 star. The food was excellent, Breakfast came with the nights lodging cost and was as good as any restaurant! We stayed 2 nights while looking for a house in the surrounding areas. The bar was a bit loud Friday night but it was Robbie Burns weekend. The locals were very friendly as well as was the staff. Would be a good place to stay if you are traveling about for vacation it 25 minutes from both Dumfries and Kirkcudbright and 12 minutes from Castle Douglas.
Would say it might have been a distractor if we would have wanted to go to bed early Friday night seeing how loud the bar was and our room was right over the top of it . Instead we went down to the pub and had a great time with the locals till the pub closed at 12pm. The rooms might be considered a bit hot for those that are from the area but for one coming from Texas it was quit cozy.
So in short it is the Best 3 star hotel that I have ever stayed in!!

We had drinks and lunch here on a visit to the town, whilst staying nearby. Service was very friendly and lunch was very generous and tasty.

Lovely meal, good variety, lovely staff.

Family get together, table was booked for 6pm. We all arrived early, had a nice warm welcome from Alexander who kindly asked if we would all like a drink and asked how we were all doing, this was a nice touch, felt very home from home. The bar area was quite busy and staff still took plenty of time, must say excellent customer service. The bar has recently gone through a refurbishment, it’s got such a nice atmosphere. The bar had a mixed range of age groups so everyone fitted in. There was live entertainment on later on tonight, “Lee’s hits through the decades” we would’ve stayed for the entertainment if we could. It’s such a busy time of year for everyone. David greeted us and asked if we were ready for our table in the restaurant, he showed us to the table, and asked if we would like more refreshments whilst handing us the menus. We were spoilt with plenty of choice, Christmas menus on 🎅, fantastic specials and of course the usual menu ;full of soo many choices. The restaurant is a place to come to chill out whilst eating meal, has stunning views over looking the burn running through Dalbeattie and of course the beautiful Christmas lights in the town. Over the other side of the restaurant is the semi open plan kitchen where the chefs are hard at work preparing all the delicious home cooked meals. Glen sure knows how to create delicious food.

David came for our orders and answered all the questions we had relating to the food as we didn’t know what some of the food consisted off, it’s safe to say every customers needs are catered for.

I ordered the Christmas’s street food, oh my goodness it was soo good, it consisted of roast turkey on a bed of thin chips, cheese, pigs n blankets, stuffing, gravy, Yorkshire pudding, glazed parsnip and sprouts. If this could be the traditional dinner on Christmas Day then I’d be up for that !! Others in the family had the traditional Christmas dinner, steak pie and gammon steak, my step dad said “ it’s the best gammon steak he’s had locally for a long time” and he will be back to the Birchtree soon for more!!

The service was very efficient and food came fairly quick, it was nice to be asked if we would like any extras with the meal as it makes all the difference, David fully made sure the evening was relaxed and we were all comfortable as well as having a good time.

The mains were finished, all clean plates, the portions are very generous,at one point I thought I’ve had enough but the food was too good to leave.

There were several desserts available, we chose the salted Carmel profiteroles Coated in chocolate and we also chose toffee Bailey’s cheesecake, the deserts were of a very high standard and 5 star presentation.

The food was all finished and out the way, the owner Robbie had a chat with us asking if we enjoyed and how things were, It’s fare to say it won’t be long till we are back. Well done all the staff mentioned. You sure know how to put a good night on.

Once again a fabulous stay in this great pub in Dalbeattie. Andrew and his staff go the extra mile to make sure that your stay with them is one that you will remember The food is exceptional and the friendly bar staff make it a great night if you choose to eat in the bar rather than the restaurant. The rooms are exceptional and are all named after local areas such as Sweetheart Abbey The Quarryman and Solway coast. If you are ever in this area this is most definitely the place to stay.

Great little village and very friendly staff in the hotel. When I arrived the barman was in control and booked me in and was helpful and welcoming. There was nice atmosphere in the bar and the locals were friendly and had good chat about the area. Was in for one night stay and there is no car park but just round the corner there is public car park which is handy. The room was clean and comfortable and set up with TV and I had good night’s sleep.

Ended up here last minute after being let down by our original hotel. So glad we did! The room was lovely and clean, the staff were all friendly and very helpful and the food was delicious! Couldn’t have worked out better and the whole family enjoyed our night away

Stayed with my daughter and we both loved our stay. Massive bed and bath in our room and food is outstanding. Dalbeattie is a stunning village and the locals are friendly, for me and my daughter we had loads to do near by chocolate factory, Dalscone farm, 2 stunning beaches and a park across from hotel. Definitely be back

Right in the heart of Dalbeattie. Nice hotel, nice room, they welcomed us and our two dogs. Dinner and breakfast were good. Absolutely cracking value at 90 quid B&B for two and two pooches! I'll stay there again if I have reason to go back to Dalbeattie (which is a nice little town, by the way).

Very nice place. Food was really good and a decent price. Nice atmosphere and decor. Place seams very clean. Staff were friendly, Jay our server/ bar man couldn't of been more helpful . Outside beer garden was nice. A nice fire going in the main part by the bar kept the place warm but not to hot. Books and colouring pencils would of been really good for the kids.

A really nice little hotel, you can tell it has been recently refurbished as the whole place had a nice and fresh feel. Checking in was done at the bar and I was shown directly to my room. I noticed that each room was individually named, a nice touch and different to being numbered.

The room was comfortable and clean. Plenty of storage space and a big comfortable bed. The en-suite was also clean and the shower was great.

Breakfast was fine. I had a roll with bacon and a tattle scone. The coffee was perfect.

Both staff members I met were very friendly and welcoming. The hotel is right in the centre of Dalbeattie, which is handy for exploring the local area.

Will definitely make a repeat booking when visiting the family!

Lovely hotel with friendly staff, stayed 2 nights, room clean and comfortable, slightly bizarre to have shower in sleeping area, when we come back we will ask for the bath 🤣
We were in the restaurant both nights, Steak night was one of the best steaks I’ve had in years, absolutely amazing food. Bar reasonably priced. Would definitely recommend. Thank you

Serving food early afternoon which was very convenient for our family. Dog friendly. I loved the local steak pie, and the Hagis bon bons. Good prices too. Glad we visited . The only pic I took was building plaque opposite this pub of first officer on titanic ship who lived in the town.

Best hols we've had in years with oor furbaby Noodles all the staff,Bar,Housekeeping,Kitchen were very friendly and nothing was to much trouble. Breakfast and meals in hotel were superb with good portion sizes and will definitely be back next year would definitely recommend this hotel to family,friends.

Family break for 2 nights, two adults, one 15 year old and one spaniel. Room was great, inclusive breakfast lovely, staff welcoming and bar comfortable. Ate in one night and really enjoyed the food. The drinks were reasonably priced and service great. The town has plenty of amenities so would be great to spend a few more nights there. Looking forward to returning at some point.

Great food and great value for money. The staff are brilliant too. I can thoroughly recommend a meal here. We had our two young children with us and we all enjoyed the evening without leaving a mahoosive hole in the wallet. We enjoyed it so much, we went back a couple of nights later for a Valentine Meal and were not disappointed.
