Service and amenities needs to improve
Blackaddie is a beautiful building, with a sophisticated interior and gorgeous food in a lovely place. Where it needs to improve is in communication with guests-I was staying there alone and I was locked out one night. The owner came quickly but I had no knowledge of this. I was actually really upset at the time and after about it. It scared me. My room was small as expected for the price and nicely done out but it lacked amenities. In the beverages offered, and also things like an iron and hairdryer. I enjoyed the Elemis products but they weren’t replaced and my bed was neither made, nor serviced properly for cups. I had a cup of tea in the same cup the next again day. The best thing about Blackaddie is the house, the dining room, the bar and the food. When I asked for things they were given to me but wifi access was not visible in the room. When I asked, I was told it was there. It wasn’t. Unfortunately, the bed was also uncomfortable. I think it has all the potential but with my experience it is not currently 4 stars, and this is what I was expecting.

Gem of a find
Second visit here recently and noticed no difference in level of care and attention. The hosts are simply amazing. Would absolutely recommend to anyone looking for accommodation in or around Sanquhar. Food is amazing too. It would 100% be my go to if I ever needed to be back in the area. Gardens and river view are great for a post breakfast walk.

A really peaceful and beautiful place with a lovely welcome from the owners and hosts. The evening meal was absolutely amazing- the chef is both an alchemist and artist producing courses of exquisite flavours which teased the palate for the entire meal - the odd plate of unusual surprise was again really bursting with flavour - I won’t tell you what it was as you will have to discover it for yourself. Highly recommended

Excellent food, shame about the accomodation
Despite the description saying there was a bath shower combination we had a room with a tiny shower room. The main room was also very small with a terrible bed, the mattress was too soft and any slight move and the whole mattress wobbled. The restaurant however was excellent. Superb fine dining experience with fantastic flavours.

Having stayed there previously was very pleased to see that standards have been maintained if not improved upon. The room, although slightly smaller than one stayed in previously was warm and comfortable. The food was fantastic, superbly presented and delicious. The owners and staff were very welcoming, friendly and helpful. We will definitely be returning in the future

Quite pretentious
Hotel room had a lovely view of the River Nith,however, the approach to the hotel takes you past an Industrial Estate. The room was small and the bathroom required an update, shower only which was very inefficient and bathroom was poorly equipped. The food was poor in the 'fine dining' restaurant, we were surprised that table d'hôte and was served in a separate dining room such that the segregation resulted in poor ambiance. Service was good at dinner and breakfast.
