On arrival we were greeted by Fred who is absolutely lovely, polite, welcoming and clearly explained all the aspects of the guest house facilities. The room we stayed in was very tastefully decorated and had a very calm relaxing feel, it was clean and the beds were very comfortable. The bathroom was to the same standard. The dining room is nicely decorated and was also very calming and relaxing to sit in. Breakfast includes yoghurts, cereals, and of course a cooked breakfast which was very filling, good quality food, hot and delicious. As well as toast jams and marmalade. We had a lovely pot of coffee to go with it. Definitely would go back and would recommend Dean Park as a place to stay Thank you Fred for having us Michelle & Freda

Ideally situated for local parks and town centre. Spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable beds and pillows. Adaptation to 2020 (!) with all hygienic measures in place. Offering a varied choice of breakfast to eat in room or take away. If you come to Kilmarnock, I would recommend this as the place to stay. Robbie and Fred extend a very warm welcome and go over and beyond to ensure guests are well catered to

Such a great location within walking distance of Dean Castle, Kay Park, and the Dick Institute. Breakfast is fabulous and Fred is one of the most personable people; he was such a pleasure to visit with at breakfast.

See Dean Castle, Kay Park, and the Dick Institute. Eat at the local pub down the road (the big one on the other side of the railroad) we were sent there by Dean Park Guest House and loved our fish and chips on their Friday night special.

16th October 2019:

We were very pleased with our room, the wonderful breakfast, and the location. Our room was spacious for us, the bathroom was very nice, and each morning the chef Fred cooked a breakfast to order besides the cereals and fruits & juices. We walked quite a bit and found all restaurants, shopping stores, and even a mini mall. We stayed 3 days at Dean Park and if we come back again we will stay here again.

Of course with most British hotels (that we have found), one should bring their own bar of soap as there are always liquid soaps, but we prefer bar of soap. I bring a zip lock baggie to transport the bar to the next hotel. We had twin beds, which were comfortable. If one hires a taxi, the taxi is at the door within seconds, honestly. We were amazed how quickly the response was.

I have already recommended this classic guesthouse to others. The 2 members of staff we met were totally charming and flexibly caring about our needs. Every corner of the guesthouse was spotlessly clean.

We had delightful morning coffee at The Lairds Table in Fenwick watching the fish jump in the lake. For dinner we walked to WG13, beside the railway station and had some excellent home cooked food, with some amusing ‘Fawlty Towers’ service. It is a social enterprise providing work experience to help people back into employment and a new cohort had just started. We had a great time.

For a quirky location, I was happily surprised at the facilities and attention to detail as guests. Our welcome was wonderful and the explanations for service etc impeccable. Our host was engaging and most polite. Dining room and atmosphere was friendly and homely. I would certainly stay here again when in this area.

The entrance at the back of the property is tricky to park, however, I would thoroughly recommend that you make the effort, as this B&B has first class attention to detail thereafter. I was attending a horse event nearby and felt really taken care of after a long day in a homely yet not intrusive way by our host.

Robbie and Fred were the perfect hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfasts were cooked to perfection. I left my jacket behind and Robbie came all the way to the station to return it to me. Catching me just as I boarded the train. The room was cmpact and very comfortable.

I spent time in Kay Park a beautiful area to walk in. I went to the Robbie Burns Centre and visited the records office to find out about my family genealogy. I also visited Dean Castle Park on the outskirts of the town. It was very beautiful and within walking dustance. As I did not have a ca so r I walked to both venues quite easily.

From the minute we arrived we felt very welcome indeed, The room we stayed in was a fantastic and spotlessly clean, The botheroom also spotlessly clean and the shower was brilliant as I'm a larger lady and I had plenty of room in it, Bith Robbie & Fred were extremely accommodating to our requests and nothing was to much trouble, I had the most superb breakfast both mornings as well as a fabulous coffee in a cute personal coffee pot, I will be back in Kilmarnock again and I will 100% be staying in the Dean Park and have spoken very highly to anyone who has asked me about my stay, ive recommended you to everyone who will listen - Tha k you both fit an amazing two days break and I hope to see you both again soon

The breakfast was 1st class, so was the service, they could not have done anymore for me. My only comment would be that I would have liked a hair dryer in my room, but in fairness, I probably could have asked for one which I did not, as I forgot my own. I would certainly stay here again.

Would Recommend: Yes

Hi. There is a hairdryer in every room. Sorry, you did not find it. regards Robbie
