The hotel was amazing! We had a beautiful room with an old bathtub, the interior looked amazing. Try the dinner there, it was really delicious. The breakfast was good as well and the staff was really friendly. Unfortunately we were only there for one night, would have liked to stay longer. In my opinion it was one of the best hotels that we had during our Scotland road trip. So I can definitely recommend it!

The b&b was fantastic! It was not just a room; it was almost a whole apartment with everything we needed (including a separate dressing room, kitchen appliances, a bathroom with rain shower, usb plugs)! The location is great; the view from there is nice and peaceful, and the garden is just beautiful! The warm welcome from the very nice hosts and the decoration details (books, funny wall decor, Scottish decor, a box on the bed with anything we could need for a shower and a good sleep) made us feel at home in Scotland! A small fridge with orange juice and milk was offered, as well as a big variety of tea, coffee, hot chocolate, and cookies/sweets.. just for us! The breakfast was brought to us in the apartment in the morning in a cute box, and it included all possible things one can find in a continental buffet (toast bread, butter croissants, chocolate croissants, fruit salad, butter, honey, jams, cheese, ham..)! We thank you so much for this experience! We will come back every time we visit Scotland :)

Beautiful large property but had to phone owner for access no one at reception. No beer on tap was all switched off, no restaurant food for afternoon and evening, terrible service, bar lady was really nice , but no service for bar or food as if they were cutting back on staff and services, No kettle in room or tea, coffee or biscuits, £105 for single bed in small room with no service whatsoever. Would actually prefer a refund, had to phone for access to hotel and bar service. Definitely wouldn’t recommend
