What a sweet spot to stay - run by a family who lives in-house downstairs & provides immediate service when you need it. Lovely drawing & dining rooms, bar for whisky tastings & breakfast area with homecooked (and included) breakfasts. Amenities were great, rooms large & cost.

We had a lovely one night stay here (wish it was longer). The staff were so welcoming and helpful. We dined in the restaurant for dinner and the food was delicious. I am coeliac and the server and chef were very accommodating to my needs. So glad we found this hidden gem and will definitely be back.

On a one month tour of the UK, we have stayed at 17 properties. This was by far the best. The room was tastefully decorated and spacious. The staff was friendly and welcoming. The in-house bar was well stocked with whiskies and the staff was very knowledgeable on the brands. We would return for a longer stay next time.

The hotel was amazing! From the warm welcome to the recommendations locally to the high standard of decor throughout the accommodation. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The place was a perfect retreat for us for a few days. We would, without hesitation, recommend this place.

A nice quiet B&B located up the hill from the town center. The room was cozy and clean. The staff was wonderful and friendly. The breakfast was delicious and just what we needed after a long day and night of Scotch tastings and drinking. Would definitely come back and stay here again.
