Dumfries Arms Hotel, Glaisnock Street, Cumnock, Ayrshire.
Robert Burns wasn't too complimentary about this Cumnock hotel over two centuries ago but I know he'd be pleasantly (WOW)surprised if he visited now.
It even has a large print of him behind reception. SSSHHHH.
I loved it. Have a visit and let us know what you think.
