David and Joan were superb hosts. They were excellent at making suggestions of where to go, things to see and do and places to eat. The hotel was the most beautiful old heritage home, exquisitely appointed and spotlessly clean. Would recommend to anyone wanting to come to the area!

Beautiful friendly hotel

The Hill hotel has very tasteful décor, is very well maintained and the owner is very friendly and helpful. We had a large room and tasty hot breakfast. My only little problem was that we had some difficulty working the new ecco shower.

Nice and friendly place close to center

It’s an old building on a hill but the inside is nicely renovated and in a good state. Rooms are nice and clean and beds are very good. Breakfast is nicely done on request the English or Scottish way. Service is excellent and staff (Terry) is very friendly and helpful.
