Yes, even dogs get a great holiday - they love Gelston! We welcome them, and unlike many places we do not charge extra. There are one or two small, common-sense conditions as detailed on the back of the booking form (see How To Book) in relation to size and numbers of dogs, and we do ask you to clear the details with us in advance - there is a place on the booking form for this.
We welcome people with disabilities, but much regret that our accommodation is only suitable for the ambulant disabled, not those who are wheelchair dependent or otherwise of severely restricted mobility. These are old houses with no ground floor sleeping accommodation and very inflexible layouts (the courtyard buildings are also listed): unfortunately there is no practical feasibility of adapting them.

Services
Take a bit of Gelston home with you: watercolourist Philippa Jones has painted various pictures of the castle and estate, and these are available to buy (we take no profit on them). Previous stays have always been mostly sunny, this year wet and windy.
But the spacious cottage made it relaxing, and our children spent blissful days sailing on Loch Ken [at Galloway Sailing Centre] and doing day courses, while we indulged in a reading fest and wandering round bookshops and galleries.
