Company info

We both take great pleasure in traveling and dining out. Reading and exercising also takes up any spare time that we may have, after tending to the needs and desires of our many and varied guests. We enjoyed informing them of places to dine, routes to take and places to visit and sites to see.

Property info

In 1982 the Jennings purchased the run down guest house, that is now The Jays Guest House. They renovated it and built a further extension to it adding several rooms in 1993. The premises are decorated and furnished to a high standard, which has enabled it to be awarded with 4 Stars from VisitScotland and successive yearly Certificates of Excellence from Trip Advisor - where we have maintained a high ranking. This place has been in business for 32 years. Both of us takes great satisfaction in providing our guests with a homely atmosphere, in pleasant and comfortable surroundings. We intend to continue with our present lifestyle and continue meeting and greeting our guests.
