The Ala-Rõuge Guesthouse is situated in Rõuge in Võrumaa.
The building was constructed in 1885 as a manor mill. At first grain had been milled into flour here and later yarn from lamb wool was spun. The building housed a textile factory from 1963 were yarn was also spun and wool headscarves, shawls, blankets and tapestry were manufactured. In 1992 the factory was closed down. Restoration work began in 1998 and the building was turned into a guesthouse.
