A good overnight stop in a conservation village.
Pros:

Friendly staff in what looks like a recently renovated hotel. Decor was neat and tidy. Good menu for Friday dinner and the cooked to order choices at breakfast were all good with the full Scottish just perfect.

Cons:

The bedroom was a little snug but we opted for the basic and chose not to upgrade so no issues.

Pros:

Comfortable bed

Cons:

No mirror when drying your hair, put make up on. Dim bathroom lights and limited space in the bathroom. The pictures on Booking do not represent the true bedrooms.
Asked if we could upgrade to a better room and were told no there wasn't any, yet on checking booking.com there was.
Didn't stay for breakfast.

We’ll definitely be back at a suitable opportunity.
Pros:

Very well kept and managed hotel. Spotlessly clean. Nice British breakfast with perfectly done poached eggs. As for the decor, it was great to see that the designer appreciates black and white photographs of the village. Nice and relaxed atmosphere throughout the hotel. Friendly receptionist. Adequate parking facilities.

Cons:

Lift is more than unusual- you have to keep pressing the button until left is there. Likewise it needs pressing the entire time of the journey.
