Great Food
Great staff, clean room and fantastic food. The breakfast in particular was exceptional. But be warned, the portions are huge. All in all, a quaint little hotel that offers service well above its price band

Great location, friendly and helpful staff, delicious breakfast. Dog friendly and excellent value. We stayed in the small double room. It was cosy and comfy and had everything we needed. The room itself could do with a bit of updating, but it was as expected for the price. The bathroom is new and pristine. Would stay again.

Nice friendly hotel. Evening meal was wonderful.
However, the breakfast (full Scottish) wasn't great....this could have been better.

A perfect overnight stay.
I was only looking for an overnight stay on a business trip to Scotland and this fitted the bill perfectly. I was late to check in, but the hotel called me to make sure I was ok and still coming, which I thought was a nice touch.
I had a beer in the (busy) bar before bed, a good breakfast to start the next day, and great hospitality throughout.
No issues at all, and I’d happily recommend it.

Very lucky to get 2 parking spaces. Staff very welcoming. Room and bathroom very clean but the bed was too soft so not comfortable however accept that a very firm bed is our personal requirement. Breakfast was excellent with a large choice. well cooked and served. Short but very pleasant stay
