Un petit gout de déception ...
Pros:

L'hôtel est dans le joli petit village de Falkland, très calme.
Le lit était minuscule mais confortable.
Point d'intérêt avec la série Outlander !

Cons:

Malheureusement j'ai été un peu déçue par cette expérience.
La chambre qui était très petite et avec un plancher tellement bancale que j'en avais des nausées.
Le lit était minuscule (140cm), le battant des toilettes n'était pas correctement fixé, les stores ne fermaient pas correctement et impossible de les ouvrir pour pouvoir ouvrir la fenêtre (et il faisait très chaud).
La salle de bain est très jolie mais la paroi de douche est beaucoup trop petite, ce qui fait qu'on met de l'eau partout en se douchant.
Quant à l'accueil, elle n'a pas été très chaleureuse. La personne qui nous a accueilli nous a ouvert la chambre, donné les clés et s'en est allée sans nous donner aucune informations; dans l'absolu ce n'est pas très grave sauf que, nous sommes arrivées vers 20h et lorsqu'on a évoqué l'idée de diner, les jeunes femmes présentes se sont moqué en nous annonçant comme si c'était une évidence, que le restaurant de l'hôtel fermait à 17h (c'était un mardi soir). Rien d'autre n'étant ouvert dans le village, nous avons du aller à plusieurs miles de là. Le temps que l'on trouve où diner et qu'on revienne, l'hôtel était fermé. Il a fallu qu'on comprenne seules que le trousseau de notre chambre comprenait la clé de la poste d'entrée, qu'il fallait tourner le verrou en sens inverse et pousser très fort .... bref, gros moment de solitude où on a bien cru qu'on dormirait dans la voiture !
Le petit déjeuner était classique, personnellement je n'y ai rien trouvé à mon gout. Mes œufs étaient très gras et le café avait un gour de brulé.
Bref un gout de déception pour cet hôtel que j'avais pourtant réservé en premier tant j'avais envie d'y aller.
Le rapport qualité/prix n'est clairement pas là.

Pros:

Cozy room and just as described. Views just like the TV show it is famous for. Comfortable and clean. Staff was kind and helpful at the reception, restaurant and bar!

Cons:

Fairly tight even for two, but still pleasant.

Cons:

At £150 a night a bit to much £100 would be about right for what was on offer

Central location to Falkland Palace with good pub food, bedroom just okay , parking dicey.
Pros:

The dinner- it was the lunch menu as it was a Sunday evening was very good. The Bartender delightful. Breakfast was hearty not just continental. The staff were friendly and nice.

Cons:

The lighting in the room was terrible and we could find only one outlet.. A Candle would have put out more light than the bedside lamps. Impossible to read. The bathroom too was dark. Additionally the shower was a little dangerous. You had to step up into it and there was nothing to grab onto going into or out of the shower. Additionally you could hear the music in the bar clearly when you are in that bathroom. This is the James Room. Luckily the noise from the bar was not in the bedroom area and the bar shuts down at 10:30pm. However the clock on a tower near by chimed every hour and that was unexpected. It was not a deep chime which easier to ignore. Finally the only way to this room is curving stairs which means taking a large suitcase up and down is difficult. There was no one to help with the luggage. Parking is dicey. Nothing really close to entrance unless you get lucky.
