Jim the host was super helpful amazing customer service
Good quality, characterful stopover in a pretty town. I imagine it is busier and more fully staffed in high season, but it was fine in mid-March. Comfortable room, decent evening meal, excellent breakfast.
A 3 day, 2 nights golf trip was excellent, with the hotel location, value for money, & 2 first class full breakfasts all significant contributions to a great weekend.
The room was spotless, we were giving a very warm welcome when we checked in .
We only stayed 1 night and the only meal we had was breakfast.
But what a breakfast, bacon sausage, fried egg, haggis , black pudding , mushrooms, fried tomatoes, tattie scone and hash browns.
I would recommend this hotel to
Anybody as it was very well priced for all that we got .
The room was comfortable and a large comfy bed, nice en suite, the food was excellent big enough portions. Nice comfy settees in lounge . The manager was very pleasant and always had time for a chat. Would definitely stay here again .
This hotel beat my expectations, for the price paid it was excellent value.
Great service, clean, comfortable and spacious room and really nice breakfast.
