The peace of rural life, in elegant surroundings
A traditional Scottish country house hotel with 17 en-suite bedrooms, set in three acres of garden and woodland in Minnigaff, on the edge of Kirroughtree Forest. Open all year round.
On the east bank of the River Cree
The hotel takes its name from the River Cree. It sits in the village of Minnigaff, and the busy market town of Newton Stewart is a mere two minutes’ walk across the Cree Bridge.
It’s a fine 3-star country house, with central heating throughout, roaring log fires in all the public rooms in winter, and plenty of hot water on tap.
“Your hosts, Steve, Sarah, Rory, Campbell and the rest of the team look forward to offering you a warm welcome and a comfortable stay.”
The Drawing Room
With its magnificent period fireplace, it’s the place for reading the newspaper, reflecting on the evening’s menu, or simply enjoying a coffee or liqueur at the end of a perfect day.

Dinner in the restaurant, or a pint by the bar
The Restaurant
Overlooking the landscaped gardens, our main restaurant serves a selection of freshly prepared local food, overseen by our Head Chef and his team.
The Bar and Bridge’s Brasserie
Prefer something more informal? The Brasserie is open for lunch and dinner, with great home-made bar meals. The bar is listed in the CAMRA Good Beer Guide and the Good Food Guide.
Over 30 malt whiskies, a changing selection of local real ales such as Tartan Terror, Deuchars IPA and Killellan, and our own cask ale, Creebridge Golden Ale, brewed for us by Houston Brewery.
Weddings and functions
Hold the ceremony in our Drawing Room or out in the garden. From cakes and flowers to name places and table plans, our dedicated hotel manager and staff take the stress out of the organisation.
Conferences and dinners
Our main function room seats over 50, with smaller rooms for fewer people. Soup and sandwiches or a fork buffet, day or 24-hour delegate rates, or room hire only.
Whatever brings you to Galloway
The pursuit of happiness is a very individual quest. Here’s where our guests usually find theirs.
Anglers
Salmon fishing on the Cree, the Bladnoch and the Minnoch rivers, all within easy reach.
Cyclists
Mountain biking in the Galloway Forest Park, with Kirroughtree Forest right on the doorstep.
Golfers
The first tee at Newton Stewart Golf Club is just 400 yards away.
Walkers
Walks through the forest park, bird watching at nearby reserves, and star-gazing under some of the darkest skies in Britain.
Or try pony trekking or clay pigeon shooting, set up an easel to paint the scenery, or just curl up with a book in front of one of our log fires. The choice is yours.
