As ever a great stay at The Star. Once again a very comfortable, clean and well equipped room with lovely touches including the tea tray and comfy sofa.

Heater was close to the window so the room couldn’t actually heat the room up so it was freezing and no wifi
Self check in was great really easy to do. Rooms were lovely and clean
Great hotel. Staff friendly and helpful. The room was clean, tidy and warm, which was great this time of year. Beds comfortable. Tea, coffee, biscuits in room.. Easy to locate from road. Food amazing, good selection. Would definitely recommend and will be returning.
There is nothing to dislike.
Generally very well run bar was excellent breakfast was great and staff were very efficient
We really enjoyed our night at the Star. The room had everything we required and the food was excellent, both in the evening and at breakfast. The staff were lovely too.
clean and comfortable bedroom separate from the pub so nice and quiet
Lovely clean room. Pub food was great, good value. Staff really friendly, lovely homely feel. Great sense of humour.
Friendly welcome and easy check-in. The room (#1) was adequate for my needs with a comfortable bed, en suite toilet and shower. Breakfast is taken in the bar adjoining the hotel and was 1st rate with cereal, fruit, yoghurt and juice before a cooked full scottish to follow.
The village of Twynholm is small and very quiet, and as a result, every little noise is heard. In addition, the bar/restaurant at the hotel only operates on Friday, Saturday and Sunday. I stayed on a Thursday and so cannot comment on how good or otherwise the hospitality is at the weekend. I am, however, sure that it would be just as good a welcome as I received when I was there.
It was in the perfect location for my work. Im a tour leader and it was close to where i needed to be
Being locked out of the hotel due to the yale being deadlocked was not ideal. No emergency contact available. Door bell not heard and had to leavr voicemaol. Luckily bedroom window was not loackable so ended up having to climb through my room window otherwise it would of been a night in thr car. There was no real follow up or concern that this had happened. Room could of done with a deep clean. The wardrobe was filled with a spare mattress. Unable to leave much of value in the room due to the window not being lockable. Will not be bringing my business here again and im pleased my clients stayed elsewhere.
Breakfast
Hotel only open at weekends so we were in the annex
Nice hotel in a quiet location. Room was lovely and comfortable and well equipped. Breakfast was really nice freshly cooked and good quality ingredients .
No negative comments at all.
Friendly pup, good pub food and very welcoming
Rooms a bit tired and dated. No control for heating, so couldn't work radiators. Room was really cold ?
Friendly pub
Cold room, radiator not working
Good location for touring. Kim, the owner is very friendly and helpful. The room was well equipped and comfortable.
I was disappointed that there were no evening meals during the week.
Unfortunately the pub and restaurant was closed no shops etc ..pouring down but the lovely land lady who just happened to stop buy helped us out and sold us a bottle!
Good breakfast. Excellent location adjacent to A75.
Office seat collapsed. Slight leak from toilet cistern. Got bitten by insects.
