Spotlessly clean and comfortable room. Friendly and helpful owners, breakfast in room good, but could charge a little more and offer more choice. But great value for the stay

8/10 Very good

Great short stay

Room size excellent, also large ensuite although shower door narrow. Bedrooms on first floor not ideal for people with mobility issues. Breakfast excellent but, was surprised to see brooche bun for breakdast bap.

10/10 Exceptional

We had a lovely night at The Foresters Guest House. Very welcoming. The owner was very great at communicating and gave a range of options for breakfast which was a nice surprise. They brought it up to our door at a time we preferred which is great. The beds are extremely comfy and the facilities are just right. Very inviting. My only slight nitpick was we found a hair in the shower and sink but the room was spotless otherwise and didn't bother me that much. Highly recommend if you're want to get near Wemyss. Lovely marina and restaurants nearby!
Jenny, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very easy instructions to get in using the key safe box in the porch. A choice of breakfasts that is sent before you arrive you just had to let Heather have by 8.30 the night before by txting on WhatsApp very easy. Lovely clean room with shower, loo and tv. Great WiFi. Breakfast was delicious and I had different options and Heather kindly stocked up the milks tea and coffee as I was there for 5 days. Quiet area within walking distance of the train station 10 mins max and a lovely marina across a main road bridge which you could walk round and come to the river Clyde I think it was as it opened up to the sea beautiful views about 20 mins walk from the BNB. Only shop was a Sainsburies local. There's a hotel with a restaurant minutes walk away although I never eat there. Buses every 15 to Largs and Greenock in the other direction cheap enough and you can buy an all day bus ticket for £6 and go anywhere on the bus line as many times as you want.

Comfy we b&b only. Breakfast was ok but morning rolls were not rolls it was a burger bun. Otherwise very well laid out would recommend

Room 1 was light, spacious and well equipped. Comfortable bed and spotlessly clean bathroom. Great stay and would warmly recommend.

Great guesthouse

The room was spotless. The owners were very friendly and accommodating. We were unable to stay late enouh to have the breakfast we had paid for so the owners arranged to bring us some earlier which was really nice gesture I thought. Would definitely stay there again.

Fabulous choice

Superb bed and breakfast. Very comfortable, everything supplied and thought of. We will definitely be usibg them again in future.

10/10 Exceptional

Easy check in, well maintained and clean rooms. Heather was very responsive and the breakfast roll was delicious.
Elizabeth, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Cosy bolt-hole for the independent traveller

What is not clear from the Hotels website is that this is a self-check-in with all contact with the host through text (though they are available should you need them) and no room servicing through your stay, so you have to realise what you're signing up for. Having said that - very clean, admirably white linens, everything you'd need in a well-thought--out and spacious though cosy room in a pretty and traditional house. The village itself is attractive, and the house is well-situated for shops, pub, marina, parking and (steep hill) train station. It's also a good base for exploring with good road and rail connections.
3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean, and there were good choice of teas and coffees in the room. Ordering breakfast by text was strange but there was a wide variety of options which could be eaten in the bedroom. The key code confirmed by text was efficient, safe and easy to operate.

A good place to stay not far from Glasgow

On the west coast of Scotland, not far from Glasgow, Inverkip is a small but highly welcoming city in front of the see. Forrester family honours the legendary hospitality of Scotland and will do their best to make your stay a trip to remember. The room is small but well-furnished and beds are comfortable. The breakfast served in the room is generous. A welcome booklet presents the good deals not to be missed around Inverkip. If you come by car, there is multiple option to park around the house. If you’re a golfer, you will have the choice of 10 different courses 10 miles around. ------------- Sur la côte ouest de l’Écosse, non loin de Glasgow, Inverkip est une petite ville très accueillante face à la mer. La famille Forrester honore l’hospitalité légendaire de l’Écosse et fera de son mieux pour faire de votre séjour un voyage inoubliable. La chambre est petite mais bien meublée et les lits sont confortables. Le petit déjeuner servi en chambre est copieux. Un livret d’accueil présente les bons plans à ne pas manquer autour d’Inverkip. Si vous venez en voiture, il y a plusieurs options pour se garer autour de la maison. Si vous êtes un golfeur, vous aurez le choix entre 10 parcours différents à 10 miles à la ronde.

Ideal place to stay

Absolutely perfect. I wouldn’t stay anywhere else in the area. Good people always on hand but not in any way intrusive. Great location too.
Nigel, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Very comfortable room - clean and well decorated with good shower room - close to station and Main St. Helpful owners. The only downside is that breakfast options are limited and is taken in the bedroom which may not suit everybody.
