The full stay was beautiful, staff really lovely and friendly, room was spotless and loved the surprise when I arrived after not having my bedding changed, unique and extremely thoughtful. Would recommend this hotel. We will indeed return, especially for the breakfast - haggis and perfectly poached eggs, delicious!

This building is beautifully situated with stunning views and lovely rooms. The restaurant was quite delicious, and again, had lovely views. We enjoyed the saunas although there was a technical problem on our second visit. The staff were friendly but not particularly professional or organised. There was a misunderstanding over a charge for what we thought was a complimentary upgrade (it was our honeymoon) which left things on a slightly sour note. All in all, still a nice stay in a very beautiful part of the world.

Wonderdul place! Upon arrival, Stephen at front desk was extremely helpful and friendly! Ensures that we were happy with the room selection and was more than happy to help with all questions and to suggest dining options. Room was very clean, well appointed and the King bed very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Nice hotel with easy access to the town centre. Friendly staff. Pull out sofa wasn't terribly high quality and expected a better mattress for the money spent. Nice appointments throughout and breakfast was good.

Lovely hotel, handy location, nice decor and very clean. Snow and ice was bad when we arrived though and the hotel had no grit/salt for the car park which resulted in our car getting stuck....not great considering the location of this hotel. Staff were friendly but not overly helpful with the salt situation.

The room was beautiful and clean. The property next door was not attractive. When you drive in the yard on the right hand side the area is a mess. The hotel itself is beautiful.
