History of Mabie House

Definitely Mabie

 
 

Steeped in history

Mabie House was originally built in the 17th century and passed through several generations of local landed gentry, including the Keswick family.

In the 1960’s the Keswick family handed building over to the local Forestry Commission, who utilised it’s forest location to provide hostel accommodation for workers within the forest and nearby sawmill.

It was not until the 1970’s that it first became a large guesthouse, offering bed and breakfast accommodation to tourists and visitors to Dumfries and Galloway.

Over the years, it grew in popularity, with families looking to host weddings and christenings in the beautiful old building and surrounding grounds you can still find here today.

A perfect base to relax and explore Dumfries and Galloway from, we were proud to feature in Love From Scotland’s ‘Where to stay in Galloway and South West Scotland‘ blog recently.

Another Happy Customer

The views from my room (5) were spectacular, the hotel itself is a magnificent old building and the staff are very efficient, kind and relaxed. Everybody gets married here, it is a spectacular setting if you want peace and quiet, great food , a bar and a lovely front room with a fireplace. Though the house is old,with wonderful stained glass windows, the bathrooms have been updated, so you get the best of both worlds, the rooms were large, the furniture and beds comfy. and the place was very clean, with coffee and tea in the rooms. Basil the parrot welcomes you as you go up the stairs. I sampled breakfast, lunch and dinner there and was very pleased. Save room for dessert! Thank you!
