Firstly room was clean, staff friendly and helpful, breakfast good. However the Hotel badly needs an update. The heater on bedroom wall needed replaced, a light fitting on the ceiling was hanging loose, the interior fixture and fittings need replaced with new ones, the shower cubicle barely big enough. Ok for a one night stay but couldn’t have stayed another night.

Everything was good in hotel but dinner was not the best so for breakfast we went somewhere else
Great hotel in an amazing location. It was a great stop for our roadtrip, down from the Highlands. Really good service, good food, good value for money.

nice clean room and excellent shower. food was very good and not to expensive
For a very last minute, just booked that morning, this was a great deal. Room was very clean and comfortable and all of the staff were friendly and welcoming from the moment we arrived until we left. So much so, we are considering going back.

Lovely meal and Staff, location perfect. Although room was beat and tidy and well stocked with tea and coffee my pillow was marked looked like a dried muddy stain and the blanket was stained too. Duvet and sheets were spotless.
Perfect! The team was very friendly and offered things before we even had to ask or even thought of them ourselves! Very good accommodation for our trip!
