A Night at a 5-Star Restaurant with Rooms: The Kenmuir Arms Experience

Tucked away in the tranquil heart of Dumfries and Galloway, Kenmuir Arms isn’t just a place to dine—it’s a destination where every detail is crafted for a truly memorable escape. As an AA 5-gold star rated “restaurant with rooms,” our promise is simple: exceptional comfort, world-class food, and the kind of genuine hospitality that lingers long after your stay.

Arrival: Rural Charm Meets Warm Welcome

From the moment you turn onto Main Street in New Luce, the pace of life seems to slow. The countryside rolls out before you, and the Kenmuir Arms—nestled amid the green—greets you with its inviting stone façade and the scent of something delicious drifting from the kitchen.

Check-in is personal and unhurried. Our small, passionate team ensures you feel immediately at home, offering a quick tour of your beautifully furnished room. Expect plush bedding, thoughtful touches like handmade gifts, and the promise of a peaceful night’s sleep.

The Rooms: Thoughtful Luxury

Each of our three rooms is designed to reflect the rural beauty outside your window. Wake up to the gentle sounds of the countryside, enjoy complimentary Wi-Fi, and start your morning with a cup of locally roasted coffee from your hospitality tray. It’s luxury without pretension—just honest comfort, done right.

The Food: Award-Winning Flavours

Dining at Kenmuir Arms is the highlight of any stay. Chef Director Christopher Dougan brings over 25 years of Michelin-level experience to every plate. Our menus are a celebration of Dumfries and Galloway, with each dish telling the story of the region’s rich culinary heritage.

Whether you join us for a themed tasting night, a hearty farmhouse breakfast, or an à la carte dinner, you’ll taste robust flavours, seasonal ingredients, and the creativity that has earned us our 2AA rosette status. Don’t miss our legendary steak nights or the popular Friday and Saturday “Chippy” specials—perfect for both locals and visitors.

The Experience: More Than a Meal

What sets a 5-star “restaurant with rooms” apart is the seamless blend of dining and accommodation. After a leisurely meal, there’s no need to worry about taxis or long drives home. Instead, you’re just a few steps away from your room—free to unwind, reflect, and soak in the rural stillness.

In the morning, a full Scottish farmhouse breakfast awaits, setting you up for a day exploring the Galloway hills, local gardens, or simply relaxing in the snug bar with a book.
