"Disappointing. Didn't ever see Loch Ord."

4.0

Smoked haddock was obviously from a frozen block, swimming in water, tasteless and with a tough skin.

Poor location. Room small and cramped. Four posts made it smaller and added nothing to the amenity.

The staff were excellent and very helpful with travel information we asked about.
