Too expensive for what on offer
Pros:

Nice bed and breakfast but expensive for what is on offer. No full Scottish breakfast limited choice one menu. Staff very pleasant and helpful
No breakfast on our last morning as chef did not turn up not even a coffee. For four hundred pounds plus for two nights not worth the money.


Central location

Cons:

Better menu choice and chef turning up for work would help. Did not like ordering breakfast night before

Uitstekend verblijf in dit charmante hotel

Het bed ligt heerlijk, maar is wel aan de kleine kant!

We had a great stay in a lovely location and would stay again.
Pros:

It was a good breakfast but perhaps drinks options could be clearer. We weren't aware that fruit juice could be ordered for example.

Cons:

We would have liked blinds in addition to curtains for added privacy in room 3.

Huis aan zee
Pros:

Direct aan zee vlakbij Dunrobin Castle. Fijne kamers bedden en prima ontbijt.

Cons:

Je moet goed opletten dat je niet voorbij de locatie rijdt. Misschien adres met huisnummer aangeven.

Great small house
Pros:

The house is on the main road though Golspie and there's a constant flow of traffic that thins out overnight. Bedroom is ample and comfortable bed. Staff were very helpful and friendly. They helped us find somewhere that was dog friendly for our evening meal. A good breakfast.

Cons:

Nothing

Amazing stay on our NC500 trip
Pros:

We liked the staff, room, breakfast and location.
We had an amazing welcome greeting from Amy. All the while we stayed she catered for our needs. Very friendly and gave us loads of ideas on where to visit. Moira replenished our room and also was very friendly with different tips about the area. Kirstine also fixed a minor problem in our room straight away and was very friendly . Would recommend staying here.

Cons:

Would have liked a hairdryer in the room.
