The Cairndale Hotel & Leisure Club is one
of south west Scotland''s leading hotels, offering a wide range of
facilities.
The REIVERS RESTAURANT in the hotel has
recently been award an AA rosette for fine dining and has taken the
name from the Border Reivers who had ongoing feuds between Scottish
Clans and English families on either side of the Border between the
13th and 17th centuries.
A story of cross-border cattle and sheep
rustling (reiving) and in-fighting. The Border Reivers were in many
ways not dissimilar to the outlaws of the American Wild West where
greed, corruption and murder were the order of the day. Out of this
period of Border history comes the story of legends where loyalties
and acts of great courage are recorded on both sides of the
border.
Many of the local families and clans who were
involved over this period are highlighted in our menu and around
Reivers Restaurant.
SAWNEY BEANS RESTAURANT has taken its name
from Sawney Bean who was believed to have been the last known
cannibal in Britain and is understood to have lived with his family
in a cave in south west Scotland. The disappearance of travellers
who were ambushed by the Sawney Bean clan in the area led to the
whole family being rounded up by King James VI which required 400
men to do the job and who were consequently executed in
Edinburgh.
The Restaurant offers a less formal eating
experience.
The BARRACUDA CLUB has established itself as
one of the finest hotel leisure facilities of its kind in the area
and recent refurbishment has added to the enjoyment of a visit to
the club. Hotel residents enjoy full use of the facilities, which
include 14m heated swimming pool, sauna, steam room, spa bath and
air conditioned gymnasium. Our Beauty Salon offers a range of
treatments and guests are advised to book treatments in
advance.
Regular entertainment is a feature at the
Cairndale Hotel with cabaret night on Saturday from October to
April. From May to October inclusive our increasingly popular
Cairndale Ceilidh takes place on Sunday nights.
Our premier venue, PARK HOUSE, boasts a wide
range of facilities for weddings and can accommodate up to 300
wedding guests. We can also a number of rooms for smaller Weddings
Ceremonies, Receptions and Private Dining with menus to suit all
requirements.
Together with Park House Ballroom we can also
accommodate a range of purpose built meeting rooms, which form the
backbone of the new complex. The Ballroom allows for a number of
different layouts for all kinds of meetings, seminars and
functions. There is also disabled access on the ground floor.
Dumfries is the largest town in Dumfries &
Galloway and a warm welcome awaits all visitors. The main shopping
area, with over 250 shops, is a two-minute walk from the hotel and
a large number of visitor attractions are on our doorstep.
