Pros:

The staff were lovely, kind and welcoming especially Gemma.

Cons:

The bed was uncomfotable, the door to the room was so warped it wouldn't shut. I would have liked a chair or two in the room to watch tv on a night instead of sitting on the bed which was uncomfortable. We went and bought a mattress topper.

Pros:

Open late and called to check we were ok when we were stuck in roadworks, the room was clean and not tiny (we had checked ahead of time that the travel cot would fit in the double room)

Pros:

Lovely little stay for our friends wedding, the hotel grounds are beautiful, food and drink decent quality and reasonably priced, staff are attentive and friendly.i can see the appeal of getting married here.

Cons:

The bypass is pretty close so there is a steady hum of traffic noise at all hours and the beds could be a little comfier. These are minor gripes however and I would fully recommend a stay here.

Wonderful hotel with excellent food and staff.
Pros:

A gorgeous hotel perfect for weddings with a lovely Chapel. We stayed two nights on our way up to Glasgow. The food was excellent plenty of choice the staff friendly and very helpful and the rooms were very quiet and lovely and warm. An excellent stop over just off the motorway. We will definitely stay over again.

Cons:

There is nothing to dislike about the property. Our mattress was passed its best but we told reception so hopefully a new one will be in place for new guests .

Pros:

Very attractive setting. Meals were good and the staff excellent. Lovely little "cabins" set in a garden setting. Close to the A74M but good rural feel.

Cons:

Breakfast is served upstairs with no lift. This was not a problem for me but someone with mobility issues might find this difficult. Because the staff were so good I'm sure if the issue were raised they would try to accommodate this.
