Stuart, 2-night trip

8/10 Good

Fabulous piece of history to stay in. Would be nice to have 2 chairs in the room and an updated tv for for those cold wet days when the pub itself is full.

Truda, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Awesome stay here Very friendly staff, Great meals, lovely and clean Great water pressure for shower Definitely worth the stopover
Tracey, 1-night trip

8/10 Good

Great spot. Food was top quality. Staff very excellent. Only thing that would be good was if the rooms had a fridge which would be such a simple fix. Kids weren't a fan of the tube tv either😂 but didn't matter to us. Would definitely stay again.
Kelly, 4-night trip

10/10 Excellent

This is such a cool place to stay. The rooms are basic with everything you need, comfy beds, warm and the decor has a nice country feel. You can eat at the iconic Cardrona hotel or toast marshmallows around the outdoor fire then wander back to your room. Great staff as well.
Melanie, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Sarah Bethany, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

I cannot fault my stay here. Staff were just wonderful and even offered to help me with my bags upstairs. My room was comfortable with amazing views of the lake. Food was exceptional. My favourite part of the stay was sitting out on the lawn enjoying the view.

Bruce, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

Having stopped here for lunch many times, I always wanted to stay as it looked so lovely! I was not disappointed. This place was just wonderful. From the room to the staff, food and grounds, I can not fault anything. The fireplace, inside and out was the best. The hot tub was relaxing as well.

Flavius, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

What a neat place to stay. There was a great vibe in the bar with a mixture of locals and tourists. We had a delicious meal in the restaurant. We love that they have kept the heritage of the buildings inside & out which adds to the atmosphere. We stayed in the Gemtle Annie room which made for a lovely overnight. Will be back!
