Guest Reviews

• Josh (10/5): Great breakfast, nice people, great location with room having all amenities. - Location and cleanliness of the room. Big hearty breakfast. Nothing
• Katja (10/5): - Es war ein toller Aufenthalt, ein sehr freundlicher und zuvorkommender Gastgeber, ein sehr schönes Zimmer und ein leckeres Frühstück. Wir konnten spontan noch eine Nacht verlängern. Sehr zu empfehlen!
• Benoît (10/5): - Petit déjeuner Tenanciers très chaleureux Village chou Quartier calme
• Rene (9/5): A wonderful stay that became one of the highlights of our Scotland trip - By coincidence we ended up at The Shandwick, and it became one of the top discoveries of our Scotland trip. We had a spacious room with wonderfully comfortable chairs to relax in, a great bed and an excellent shower. In the morning we enjoyed a generous breakfast, all taken care of by a cheerful and friendly host, right in the centre of town. There was nothing left to wish for.
• Carolyn (10/5): Warm, welcoming overnight stop - A lovely comfortable room with everything we needed. Friendly, welcoming host, provided lots of useful local information. Breakfast was freshly cooked and delicious. A perfect overnight stop Nothing, it was great

We have a king size duvet on a double bed at home for that reason.
