Stayed at the Barrisdale Guest House, Glasgow for two nights, 15th & 16th May 2012. Excellent value for money. Place was immaculate. Exceptionally clean. Marvellous continental breakfast served each day. I'll give it "Four Star plus"! Ron, my host, very pleasant, friendly, efficient and obliging. Will definitely stay here again. Fantastic value!

We only stayed Barrisdale for one night but surely return here when coming to Glasgow next time. The room was cosy and Ron's house peaceful. Delicious breakfast served to the room. We had interesting discussions with our host Ron. He was very helpful and gave us useful ideas.

My husband and I stayed at Barrisdale Guest House for 3 nights while we were in Glasgow. We had a fantastic stay and Ron is wonderful! When we arrived he gave us suggestions of things to see and do while we were in Glasgow. The house is so beautiful and has lots of character. Barrisdale Guest House is about a... More

Excellent - if only conventional hotels were as good as this first-rate B&B. Nice room, good breakfast. 5 mins on the train to city centre. What's not to like? Jeff

We spent a week in Glasgow and stayed at the Barrisdale. Could not have been in a better place. A bit out of downtown but in a great off-street location. A short walk to the bus or train station and either take you right into the city in a matter of minutes. Ron, our host, was outstanding. He provided us... More

I definitely recommend staying in this B&B in Glasgow instead of a hotel in the city. This is a charming older building with very large rooms and high ceilings. The owner is very friendly and talkative and is quite helpful. The nearby pub serves good dinners for a very reasonable price. Free parking is available on the street. The continental... More

We cannot express enough gratitude for the excellent hospitality, friendliness and guidance provided at Barrisdale during our 3 nights' stay. My partner and I were newly arrived postgraduate students who had never before been to Scotland, let alone Glasgow, and we were experiencing all of the excitement and anxiety that comes with relocating to a new country. Ron was incredibly... More

We stayed in Barrisdale for 3 nights and absolutely loved it. Ron was friendly and warm, always with a big smile. He gave spot on recommendations for dinner (Three Craws opposite the house and The Brye Inn at Brig o' Turk) and scenic driving routes. Rooms were cosy and breakfast was tastefully delivered every morning to the rooms. Location is... More

We were attending a close friend's wedding as a family and Barrisdale was recommended to us by the groom. Ron is the most gracious host and was a font of knowledge and expertise not only about Glasgow but also other 'must see' spots in Scotland. We stayed for five nights in the family room - the beds were very comfortable... More

We spent 20 days in Scotland, staying in ten different B&B. The general level of Scottish hospitality is very high: all the rooms was clean, all breakfasts huge and tasty, all owners nice and knowledgeable. Barrisdale is no exception: we really enjoy our two nights stay. The room is spacious and nicely decorated, perfectly clean. Abundant continental breakfast with cereal,... More
