Company information

I have had many years in the hospitality industry ranging from our large family hotel, an outside catering company and a deli through now to my very own hands on and personal guest house. It is so good to really get to know my guests and share my home. Now in my eleventh year at Douglas Park, I look forward to another busy year, with many guests returning year after year. Staycationers and travellers are delighted to discover this quiet secret area with many roads and lochs to explore. Just ask me for a day trip with a difference! My tag line is ' come as a guest and leave as a friend'. It is so true; so many lovely guests looking for a more friendly and personal approach and a welcome that you just do not get in a hotel. Do ask to see my wee dog, Tilly. She's usually in the back garden watching out for the neighbours cat!
