Mooi locatie en prachtige pub, heel leuk personeel en lekker eten.

Waar wij met de hond moesten zitten, was qua comfort niet ideaal. Te lage tafel om aan te eten. Erg jammer, voor de rest top!

Pros:

Room was clean and comfortable. Ensuite bathroom had a good shower. Good towels. Dinner of fish and chips was excellent, but the menu was relatively short and uninspiring. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Easy parking.

Cons:

Poor curtains although the area behind the hotel was dark. Didnt like the poor quality table i was offered at dinner but that was eventually changed on request. Dinner menu was short and uninspiring. Relatively poor choice. General decor was dated for a moderately expensive hotel.

Cosy, peaceful, wonderful staff
Pros:

The staff are absolutely lovely, and I never use that word! Always smiling and cheery even though they must be busy.

The inn is a very cosy and comfortable stop off for us en route to Edinburgh. It’s a peaceful antidote to the hubbub of cities.

Cons:

Would have liked a bath, there wasn’t one in our room on this occasion, but we didn’t book early enough!

Great for our one night stay.
Pros:

Location perfect for us. Got parked easily. Bigger room and bed than expected. Shower and toiletries perfect. Breakfast excellent. Lovely tea/coffee making facilities in room.

Cons:

Creaky floorboards on landing but it was a very old property so to be expected.
