Fabulous stay at the Bonnie Badger
Pros:

Location was perfect for Scottish Golf open, breakfast was great, cooked to order and the granola was best I have tasted. The little touches like homemade flapjack and water to take to the golf made it very special. All the staff were attentive and friendly.

Great location but food overpriced
Pros:

Friendly staff and great location.

Cons:

Cottage bedrooms in need of a refurb which is happening under new ownership. Food in main restaurant is massively overpriced - I can eat in some of London’s best restaurants for less. Same goes for the wine list
