CHIPPERKYLE SCOTTISH BED AND BREAKFAST

OUR SERVICE TO YOU: On your arrival you will be shown into the drawing room and dining room, which you are welcome to enjoy, and then upstairs to your room. I often find that houseguests need to sit down and have tea by the fire and feel at home before they plan their next move. This is when we can get to know you a bit and suggest places to eat and visit, OS maps are offered, and anything else we can help you with. BEDROOMS, DRAWING ROOM AND DINING ROOM: We only offer two of the bedrooms at Chipperkyle, they are both large and comfortable with private bathrooms one is ensuite the other is adjoining. However we have a large drawing room and dining room that is just for our guests.

An arch separates these two rooms that means you could use the table while your other half lounges by the fire! It also makes the dining room less formal and more part of every day life. The family pictures all have a story to tell, there may be a jigsaw going on, books to browse and inform, maps for planning, an oak floor with rugs, sofas to sink into and logs by the fire for you to throw on. Everything you need to feel at home. Breakfast is served in the dining room, at a time to suit you, using local and home made ingredients.

These rooms are west facing and are often flooded with sun so much so that we have to pull down the blinds, would you believe it in a Scottish home? You are free to wander outside where you wish and we can give you a farm plan with wildlife info for a short route up the hill with glorious views of the Galloway countryside and over to the Lake District - ideal before breakfast. As this is a family home, we have our rooms and the kitchen in the basement.
