The Cross Keys in Kippen

Contemporary, well equipped room with stunning view. Super comfortable bed. Hearty breakfast. Great location in Stirlingshire.

All good, maybe extra towels and a bathmat in the bathroom.

Very authentic, in a lovely little village. The rooms were clean, fresh and airy and the staff couldn’t be more helpful. Fabulous meal in the evening, highly recommend the home made Cullen Skink Soup, it was delicious!!! With a proper Full Scottish Breakfast in the morning, even got tips on how to prepare the perfect poached egg.. which it was! Proprietor was very present throughout the evening and the morning which was really nice to see, and Ian behind the bar was helpful and pleasant throughout! 😊

There were no negatives to the property at all that we could see, we did say a fan would have been good in the room because it was very hot, but we didn’t ask for one.. so there is the possibility that they had them available for use, so the onus was on us for not asking.

staff made the stay , they were friendly welcoming and helpful

The location was excellent for a stopover on the way from Yorkshire to Skye. Staff and owner were friendly and efficient. It is obviously a popular meeting place for the village who all welcomed us, and our dogs. The cleanliness and neatness of the whole pub was excellent.

Because of the age of the building, 1703, and its position, on the Main Street, there is no private car park. However, the whole village has street or pavement parking and we were fortunate enough to park directly outside the front door. There were also several other spaces so parking is not a problem here.

Beautiful place and nice breakfast!

Rent rum med utsikt åt två håll. Fin liten by

It’s a beautiful pub in a fantastic spot. The rooms are nicely furnished and exceptionally comfortable. There are some great views of the landscape so it’s worth a stroll around the village. The pub and restaurant was closed during my visit, but the host was kind enough to let me know well in advance and thoughtfully booked me a table at a restaurant down the road. If you’re travelling for leisure I would highly recommend stopping here.

I wouldn’t describe the host as welcoming when I arrived. Not rude or unwelcoming, more like my arrival was an inconvenience. I was travelling for business, which usually means an earlier start for breakfast than holiday makers. This was not well received. However, to be fair, the host did agree to serve breakfast a little earlier for me. The room was paid in advance via booking.com. Unfortunately this creates a bit of an issue getting a tax receipt from the venue. Booking.com won’t issue a tax receipt, and direct you to the venue to get one. It can be a bit problematic for the venue to sort this out, and I’ve come across this problem with several hotels. It’s definitely the fail of booking.com and not the hotel. However, the hotels are always able to sort it out in the end. The Cross Keys had no interest in helping with this which was disappointing. For business travel, you may want to consider alternative accommodation.

Well taking care of small inn in small town, Good taste of interior decor, the color theme is soothing, Choice of breakfast, Welcome tea and cookies

The hot water could be hotter for taking shower. Noisy bathroom fan

Very friendly and kind staff. Gave me a take-away breakfast as I had to leave very early.
