"Lovely hotel"

10.0

We stayed in room 10 which is in a building at the back of the hotel. Room is small but we were only staying one night. Furnishings etc were quite quirky. The ensuite was small. shower was great, the wash hand basin was wide but narrow & couldnt put the tap on fully ,as the water just splashed out with the force. Staff were excellent & plenty of them, service was first class, could not fault them. Overall a lovely hotel in a great location,would definately reccomend.

"Lovely hotel with wonderful food"

10.0

I really enjoyed my stay at this excellent hotel. Food was fantastic, especially the shed burger. The breakfast was also of a very high standard. My only slight criticism was the size of the room was a little smaller than I expected and the pillows weren’t very Comfortable but everything else was great

"One night stay to dine"

10.0

Came for one night for the food as we had read good reports and were not disappointed, it was excellent both dinner and breakfast. We had a small dog and found a dog towel, treats, poo bags and a feeding mat provided in the room and also in the bar area. Nice clean room and bathroom. It would have been nice for the heating to have been on before arrival as it was cold, but was nice and warm after our walk from the electric heater and towel rail

On check in staff were grumpy. Two single beds pushed together is not a double bed. I have stayed here before probably won’t go back.

The hotel is a 5 star on the charming meter! The staff is friendly and welcoming and the restaurant was superb! Rooms have been updated and are clean and comfortable. There is a walking trail along the river that was beautiful. This was the best inn of our trip and we wish we had stayed here longer.

"HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! Just make dinner reservations!"

10.0

Absolutely loved the place!!! Easy to get to and lots of parking. EV charging stations!! Our room was fantastic!! Staff was beyond helpful!! Definitely make dinner reservations before you go because the place is very popular and the food is terrific!! Breakfast was a real treat!! You get to order off a menu instead of a buffet!! I had eggs and salmon and my son had full Scottish…we thoroughly enjoyed it and didn’t need to eat again till dinner!!!!!! HIGHLY recommend staying here!!!
