Pros:

Storica locanda scozzese del 1600, con sole 4 camere da letto. Soggiornare qui è stato come fare un tuffo nel passato e vivere a pieno lo spirito scozzese. Fiona e il suo staff sono state eccezionali, ci hanno fatto sentire a casa sin da subito e ci hanno trattato come persone di famiglia, dandoci anche molti consigli si cosa fare e vedere. La colazione preparata sul momento è ottima e curata. Il ristorante al piano terra è bellissimo, con muri in pietra e camino, e il cibo veramente ottimo. Oltre al ristorante è presente un pub, punto di incontro dei residenti del piccolo paesino, dove poter conoscere e fare amicizia con i frequentatori, che sono stati simpaticissimi!

Pros:

Toller Pub/Restaurant in historischem Haus. Tolles Ambiente, super leckeres Essen und absolut nettes Personal. Übernachtungsmöglichkeit besteht im Haus. Das Zimmer war sauber und dem historischen Haus entsprechend eingerichtet, sehr authentisch, wir hatten einen sehr angenehmen Aufenthalt.
Die Besitzerin war zuvorkommend und um unser Wohl besorgt. Das Frühstück konnte am Abend ausgewählt werden und wurde in super Qualität am Morgen serviert. Es war ein toller Aufenthalt!!
Ein großes Lob an die Küche und vielen Dank an Fiona!!!

Cons:

Alles bestens!!
