Great staff and pleasant enough hotel
Pros:

Lovely staff and comfy room. Food could have been better. We ate in the restaurant in the evening and while our starters were good the main courses really let it down. For the price of the food here I would have expected more.

Cons:

Food was overpriced and very average

Tolle Unterkunft mit tollem Essen
Pros:

Schönes englisches Haus mit tollem Essen und leckerem Bier :-)
Sehr freundliches Personal und tolle Lage

Cons:

Die "Doppelbetten" in England sind oft sehr klein :-( . Engländer und Schotten kuscheln wahrscheinlich lieber als Deutsche :-)
Ansonsten gibt es nichts zu beanstanden

I recommend this place in cooler weather. It has a great location!
Pros:

Our waiter in the restaurant was so kind and very good. I believe his name was Ryan. He made us feel so welcomed.

Cons:

Unfortunately, it was very hot when we visited and the hotel doesn’t have air conditioning. They provided a fan for our room. Not the staffs fault.

Great hotel, good food, very friendly but thought our room a bit overpriced but it was a weekend.
Pros:

Breakfast butty good. However full cooked breakfast is extra.
Dinner good choices, good locally sourced food, allergens taken care of. Staff, without exception, welcoming, friendly and helpful. Hotel well placed for local attractions.

Cons:

For £200 plus per night for B&B would have expected the "full works" to be included for breakfast and a bit more "luxury". This does not stop the Woodside being a good pub/hotel for a stop over.

Pros:

Good size rooms is a property that has a good hotel/pub vibe. Ample parking made it easy on a driving holiday. Great place for a 7km run with beautiful views of Doune Castle in the morning.
