The Good Hotel Guide is the leading independent guide to hotels in Great Britain & Ireland, and also covers parts of Continental Europe. The Guide was first published in 1978. It is written for the reader seeking impartial advice on finding a good place to stay. Hotels cannot buy their way into the Guide. The editors and inspectors do not accept free hospitality on their anonymous visits to hotels. All hotels in the Guide receive a free basic listing. A fee is charged for a full web entry.

Good Hotel Guide Review
The hotel experts at the Good Hotel Guide
In a small former mill town once renowned for its cashmere, this Victorian doctor's house with 'beautiful views to the hills' is run as a much-loved guest house by Lisa and Steve Davies. Cosy bedrooms, most in charming country-cottage style, are supplied with fresh milk. Guests can relax by the drawing room fire, enjoy a traditional breakfast in the dining room, and order light bites in Café Sitooterie. Book ahead for a dinner of seasonal produce – maybe roast Borders venison, bean cassoulet, green salad; chocolate marquise, berry compote, vanilla ice cream. They also host tastings of wines far more palatable (if less efficacious against gout and cutaneous eruptions) than the sulphurous water from the fabled local St Ronan's Wells.
