The bed was wonderful, so comfortable!! My sister and I were in town for 2 nights. Ivy saw to our every need. There was coffee, tea, and a TV in the room, plus plugins for our phones so that we didn't even need our adapter. Breakfast had specials of pancakes one morning and smoked salmon the next, but there was no problem getting the scrambled eggs, beans, and bacon we preferred. There were several restaurants just around the corner, plus pharmacies and the train station, so very conveniently located. Being Americans, we had a bit of problem figuring out the shower controls, but Ivy was there in an instant to explain. We loved our stay.

spacious rooms, excellent breakfast and Ivy was an amazing hostess. she gave great suggestions on what to see and the best way to visit them. highly recommended!

the location was close to the bus and train. my room was nicely appointed and comfortable.

Bed very comfortable, quiet location, breakfast tasty

Very kind of the early breakfast due to early check out.

Friendly & helpful hosts welcomed us to Derrin Guest House. The house was absolutely spotless with comfortable accommodations. It is walking distance to town & a delicious dinner at the Olderfleet Bar & Restaurant, recommend by Ivy. Thank you for setting out an early breakfast for us before the ferry. Ww will be back.

Ivy & Siebe are a great team sincerely interested in your comfort & travel goals. Its a great location in a nice town.

Central yet quiet location - the very friendly hosts provided good restaurant recommendations - a new breakfast special was introduced every morning giving good (and healthy) variation - easy on-site parking - a useful heater in the room in case of a cool evening

Lovely old guest house with substantial wood stair railings. The room was comfortable and Ivy was very nice to talk with.

Friendly owner. Great breakfast. Very helpful with information on dining and attractions. close to downtown.
