Nice looking hotel in a great area. Eautiful farm country surrounding you. Nice pool. Very friendly check in person. My two complaints were the bed is a very stiff uncomfortable matress and (yes im American) the room was very warm. The window opened but it was still too warm for me to sleep even with the tiny fan provided. Not worth the $$

Staying there was a pretty good experience in general. Staff was pretty good as was the food and the bar. The grounds had some trails to walk and and interesting relief map of Scotland. My only concern was with how my African brother in law was treated as compared to myself. When he asked for certain things from the staff he was told, this couldn't be done and that couldn't be done yet when i asked it wasn't a problem. They were eager to get it done. I'm not making accusations rather wondering outloud....

Beautiful hidden gem
Friendly staff, great breakfast, beautiful grounds, comfortable bed, personal preference- I didn’t like the pillows, worn carpet, creaky floors. I suppose they add to the ambiance of the historical hotel. We were too hot during the night so propped the window open to get fresh air. Didn’t have any other way to regulate the temperature of the room

The women on reception was so friendly and helpful and interested in our stay, she's a credit to herself and to the hotel. The staff in the dining room were all friendly and efficient too. The room we were in was a hint on the tired side, decor wise and could've been a little cleaner. Food both at breakfast and dinner was excellent. Pool and sauna appeared very clean, though I only made a short visit. Wouldn't hesitate to return again. Is not
