Clean and characterful
Kip in the Kirk was handy for exploring the area. Frances was attentive and friendly. The room was comfortable and very clean with plenty character. Breakfast was not extensive but was good quality and plentiful. I’ve not visited before but would definitely return.

Comfy cottage
We actually stayed in Hillview Cottage in Drymen owned by the same person Frances. A bit cold at first but once the heat came through it was adequate. Very comfortable, bright and immaculate. Frances delivered continental breakfast in the morning and later joined us for a blather. Great host and cottage. We hope to return next year.

Wonderful
I was lucky enough to book here at short notice after another hotel in Glasgow cancelled on me but didnt think to tell me about it. I was made to feel very welcome throughout, slept like a log (a snoring one as it turns out!) and was very refreshed the following morning. The place was spotless and had a wonderful warm charm about it. Although I ended up here in a needs must situation I'm glad I did and would absolutely stay again.

Warm and welcoming hosts, great advice on where to travel to, nice continental breakfast with homemade marmelade and good conversation. The mattress was a bit uncomfortable (complaining on high level) and the pub next door played loud music until late into the night, which was a bit distracting as we had a long drive before and tried sleeping early. All in all: I can only recommend booking a room at this sweet BnB!

Thanks for taking time to write a review. It would be helpful to know which room you stayed in. We have spent £3,000 on new beds and ordered only yesterday a new mattress for our double bed in the family room. So I am hoping that this was the room in which you stayed - however this room is not beside the pub but if it was a warm night and your window and the pub windows were open you could well have been disturbed by the noise. The pub is licensed until midnight Sunday to Thursday and 1am Friday and Saturday. The staff are very good at closing and locking up promptly which generally our guests seem to appreciate. I am sorry that you were not 100% satisfied with your stay but thank you again for your review, positive comments and of course your recommendation.
