PLEASE NOTE THAT THE KEN BRIDGE HOTEL NOW ONLY PROVIDES MEALS FOR HOTEL RESIDENTS.

Hello and welcome to a rather different Ken Bridge Hotel. Since reopening after covid, we have taken a slightly different path and the hotel is now being run with reduced daytime hours.

Hotel guests may check in from 4pm.

What does this mean for our guests?

Well, our rooms are just as lovely and kept to the same standards whilst abiding by covid cleaning rules. Our restaurant is open to hotel guests from 5.30 - 7.45 pm. We are no longer open at lunchtimes or throughout the day, but the biggest change is that we are now only serving food to our hotel guests, and not to the caravan site and/or the general public.

We understand the disappointment that this has created for many of our non-resident visitors, but it is really not possible for us to provide for everyone at this time.

MASK POLICY

We understand that rules are different in each country of the UK, but please familiarise yourself with Scottish regulations.  Please bring a mask with you.

Explore the area while staying at The Kenbridge or Rowan Cottage

The hotel is a superb centre for fishing, golfing, hill walking, cycling on the surrounding quiet country roads, mountain biking on the world famous 7 Stanes routes, bird watching, photography, clay pigeon shooting, field and water-sports or for simply relaxing and taking in the wonderful scenery.

We are on the edge of the UNESCO Dark Skies Park created in 2009, which at the time was the only one in Britain and only the 5th worldwide. The river beside the hotel is a seasonal host to Osprey, Kingfisher and Oyster Catcher, there is also a healthy population of Otter and the hotel gardens receive regular visits from Red Squirrels. Early risers may see deer in the meadows across the river, as well as fox and badger.

The woodland to the west of the hotel is used as a roost by up to as many as 35 Red Kite which frequently soar and wheel spectacularly over the hotel.

The Ken Bridge Hotel and Rowan Cottage are ideally situated enabling you to explore the whole of Dumfries and Galloway.

Dumfries and Galloway has so much to offer from Castles and Historic attractions to numerous outdoor activities. Here are just a few to help you choose when planning your holiday.
