This was a beautiful surprise. We needed a one night stay in the area and I booked this place. I wished we stayed longer. The location is excellent. The property surrounding is well maintained and beautiful. The hotel, restaurant, and room are cozy and welcoming. I even joked that if I ever decide to get married, I want it to be here.

We had two rooms for our family and they were both very comfortable. Nice hot showers, good heating, and very clean. We also had both our breakfasts and dinners in their restaurant for two days and they were excellent. We had a variety of dietary needs and everyone had delicious choices. Excellent service, food and ambiance. Overall we would highly recommend a stay!

Our room was very nice, we had the twin bed room so things were a little close but still not bad. The closet was small but worked well for us. The bathroom was very clean and nice with all the amenities we needed. There was tea/coffee maker in the room with several bottles of water. The service from the staff was excellent from the check in, maids and waiters. I will admit when I saw it was a distillery it piqued my interest thinking whiskey, nope it is a gin distillery. We meet the owner and he provided us with a flight of the gin he makes on the premises, it was superb to say the least. I highly recommend it. We had dinner in the bar, and it was well prepared and fresh. The breakfast is the classic Scottish breakfast, it was nicely prepared and fresh. The breakfast area looks out over the river and up to the mountains for a great view.
Outstanding flight of gin distilled on the premises
