Loved this spot! We spent a week in Scotland and stayed at 5 different hotels. This was by far my favorite. The room was super clean and the bathroom was nice and spacious. We had dinner in the pub and the food was delicious. The staff was so friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay here again.

Property is in a very convenient location. Comfortable beds and quiet except for creaky floorboards and the heater going off and not being able to turn back on. Breakfast could be better and the staff better trained as they were very young.
