Great food and solid reasonable lodging.

The food and the bar were excellent. Room was small but clean comfortable and adequate. Only complaint was low water pressure for the shower but that did not override the positives. The location was convenient for great golf and tourist attractions. I will go back the next time I am in the area.

Cosy Hotel in East Linton

The room was small and cosy but clean and tidy. The food in the restaurant was great. Good menu and cooked perfectly. There was not a big choice for breakfast. It was either a cooked Scottish breakfast or cereals but I think you could have had scrambled or poached eggs with toast if you wanted. There is a bar in the hotel which is frequented by locals who are very friendly. Had a great couple of evenings in there.

Staff were all lovely! Locals also very nice, real friendly village feel in the bar. Food was good and lovely little garden to sit out the back and escape the heat! Rooms were basic but did the job for our one night stay. Saw some photos online before going that worried us but room and bathroom and all public spaces very clean so don’t be put off!

Such welcoming staff who were so helpful in the morning. Breakfast was wonderful, really tasty and lots of variety. The full Scottish breakfast was a firm favourite! The room was super clean and quiet. A lovely stay if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle, which a quaint village feel. This has a family feel to it! Thank you, my 7 year old son would love to stay again.

Short stay

Overnight stay with evening meal and breakfast. Meals were good and plentiful. Booked family room for two adults which had a bit more space. What made the hotel was the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Only downside was there was only on street parking.

Loved the town and area. People very hospitable. Cute hotel and very reasonable but the room was so small the bed hit the door. If you don’t mind extra tight quarters then go for it.

Cannot say enough how wonderful this hotel is, the bed was so comfortable and had lovely cosy linens on it, the room itself was well done up and had a view of a beautiful clock tower, and the breakfast served was amazing! Our only regret is not eating supper at the restaurant, I’m sure it would have been amazing too!
