Somewhere different to stay that feels so authenticly Scottish.
Pros:

Spacious room No 1 - a suite really with entrance hallway and huge bathroom. The location feels remote yet it was easy to get to from the motorway. We loved the history of the place. A bit of Scottish history , we loved staying somewhere that felt different. Food was excellent, home cooked. Lovely friendly staff.

Très belle auberge des années 1600
Pros:

Petite auberge résidentielle la plus haute d'Ecosse, et qui date des années 1600..! Nous avons séjourné dans une jolie chambre mansardée, avec hall d'entrée, chambre de belle surface et salle de bain. Surface estimée de l'ensemble 40 à 45m2. Il y a un petit pub et coin repas au rez-de-chaussée où nous avons adoré la soupe de légumes ultra épicée qui réchauffe en cas de jour pluvieux. Chambre très propre et très fonctionnelle, très scottish

Cons:

Rien

Cosy and friendly hotel
Pros:

My son and I have just returned home from a two night stay at this fabulous hotel in Leadhills. What can I say? The hosts and staff were so welcoming and friendly. The food was superb and very filling, even for a hungry pair like ourselves. I can thoroughly recommend the Scottish breakfast to set you up for the day and the press coffee was great quality. The rooms and bathrooms were very nice and clean. We found the locals very friendly too which all added to the experience. The bar is dog friendly and a fine selection of single malts was available. Can't wait to go back for a longer stay
