Very good value for money. Shed out back for charging e-bike was good. Evening meal was very good. Cooked breakfast was a wee bit disappointing.

We thought the hotel was lovely. Spotlessly clean inside, the rooms were very well equipped apart from the shockingly poor non steam iron in the room. The bed was super comfortable and all of the staff were incredible. Nothing was too much trouble, everyone was super welcoming and friendly and helpful. All of the food we had during our stay was lovely . Generous meals sizes and wonderfully prepared. The hotels is well managed and maintained and run by a wonderful team . I highly recommend this place to stay, you wont be disappointed. We will defo come to stay again .next time for longer. Thank you so much for making our time in Scotland so special .

Clean comfortable rooms, great atmosphere with fantastic staff. Good choice of food, with specials most nights. Kitchen was flexible in providing early breakfast outside normal hours at the weekend when we had an early start to our activities for the day.

Some of the staff are amazing, such as the young lady serving the breakfast, and the one checked me in.
However, my second morning’s breakfast was not served in a best way it could’ve.
This property has great deal of potential; it’s like a place that was 4-star at some point in the past. The room was cozy, although small.
There was fake eyelashes next to the toilet, and lots of hairs on the bed cover.
I had dinner with them once, and the food was really good.
Parking was pretty convenient, too.
