Grandissima Accoglienza, giovialità e disponibilità dei proprietari che ci hanno fatto sentire i benvenuti dal primo momento fino alla nostra ripartenza. Camera molto curata e immersa in uno scenario unico…

Un super point d’étape
Pros:

Point d’étape dans notre séjour en Ecosse, proximité du château de Dunnottar. Hôtel dans un superbe environnement, les plats du restaurant nous ont conquis, ainsi que le petit déjeuner. Les chambres d’hôtels sont bien insonorisées, nous n’avons pas du tout entendu la cuisine se situant au même étage ainsi que le pub au rez de chaussée, nous avons très bien dormi et avons apprécié la chambre familiale. Nous avons beaucoup aimé l’ambiance et la gentillesse du personnel de l’hôtel restaurant

Un bel soggiorno in un autentico borgo di pescatori
Pros:

Bella struttura in un caratteristico e autentico borgo marino. Sia l’esterno che gli interni curati e accoglienti. Gli spazi ben distribuiti. Tutto ben ordinato e pulito. Lo staff cordiale e gentile. Sia la colazione che la cena ben preparati, con ingredienti di ottima qualità e serviti in tempi adeguati. Speriamo di poter tornare in questo bell’hotel per godere ancora della buona ospitalità, del buon cibo e della bella passeggiata tra le vie del borgo.
