Okay, there’s no pool or jacuzzi, but that’s not the point. Everything was just as it should be from Kenneth’s welcome to his establishment to my leaving two days later. The house is absolutely spotless top to bottom with everything the guest would need for a comfortable stay. Breakfasts were well-cooked and tasty, and ample enough to set one up for the day. Bedroom was well-appointed, with numerous thoughtful details. The bed was comfortable with spotless bed linen. I will return!

Best of the best guest house

The Douglas park is the best guest house I have ever stayed at. The rooms are decadent. The owners ken and Shona are fantastic hosts especially ken who simply couldn't do enough to please his guests. His cooking skills are top notch especially his smoked haddock and poached egg and his wife shona's home made marmalade... yum yum..6 stars 🌟

Douglas Park was an incredible property. It was immaculately clean. Everywhere. The whole guest house looks like it has just been newly refurbished. The decor is modern and elegant. The rooms were spacious and if you choose to get a front room the view is spectacular. There is free parking but if you don’t have a car there is a bus straight outside the door that takes you into town, to the ferries, to your next destination. Ken, our host, was so helpful. He recommended places for dinner that were excellent. He new the bus and ferry schedules off by heart he helped us organize ordering flowers for a friend we were going on to visit. Breakfast was included and was absolutely delicious. Service was prompt and attentive. We would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to everyone!!

One of the best accommodations we ever stayed at

We booked the twin room for 5 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The room was spacious and tastefully decorated with luxurious touches. We had lovely views onto the garden and the beds were very comfortable. Our private bathroom was a few steps down the landing, which was no problem as bathrobes were provided. The breakfast room and guest lounge both offered stunning sea views of the Firth of Clyde, ideal for spending a rainy afternoon with a good book. We found plenty things to do during our stay including hill walking and visiting interesting and picturesque places like Tarbert and Inveraray. Some of the landscape and nature was just breathtaking. Dunoon had all the amenities and plenty of good restaurants and pubs. However, our drive to Otter Ferry to have lunch at the "Oyster Catcher" pub/restaurant was well worth it. The guest house owners Shona and Ken were the perfect hosts and went out their way to make our stay as comfortable and pleasant as possible. They provided us with local information and suggestions for things to do. We appreciated the little treats we found each night in our room and the breakfast was very good and varied, with fresh fruit - strawberries and blueberries! - provided every morning. We can highly recommend Douglas Park Guest House and would not hesitate to stay here again. Thanks again Shona and Ken for looking after us so well.
