Great location

Executive double was two uncomfortable single beds pushed together, outside of the main guest house which was very loud and echo-y

"Lovely building and quiet area"

8.0

Lovely building and staff who we met in the morning, and free parking!

The room was cold, a big single glass window, I understand it must be listed building but it could do with more heat or blankets. Long walk into the centre. 30/40 mins

"Lovely place, nice meal, poor parking set up."

8.0

Beautiful setting, lovely facilities and staff at breakfast.

Parking, you have to leave your keys if you block someone in which we didn’t like so we ended up paying for another carpark.

"Lovely staff nice place clean and heal fast was good. Would stay again"

7.0

The staff were lovely and the breakfast location was good a fair walk into town but that was our choice and on a good bus route with stand directly opposite. Like the lockers for keys so there was no issue with that time you came back.

Bed was very uncomfortable and small. Really early check out was 10 and no staff in the building throughout the day and night only at breakfast.

Good position, could walk to the town centre or plenty of buses. Room basic but had everything we needed.

Breakfast wasn't a full English or Scottish breakfast but so saying there was enough to choose from.
