Pros:

Friendly welcoming staff, good food, spacious room and a great view.

Cons:

The shower was quite intense and the door lock needed work. There were pigeons nesting in the roof above our window although that was quite fun!

Absolutely perfect for an overnight trip before the ferry to Orkney.
Pros:

Great views over the coast, perfect location for our onward trip on the ferry. Loved the dining options as we arroved late after a long drive was awesome to not need to have to go into town for anything.
