Great stay with friends

Well signposted and so very easy to find! Very friendly welcome, comfortable, cosy bar and pretty decent food. Our room was large with a huge bed and the only negative was the condensation on the inside of the windows.

Very much enjoyed the dinner, absolutely delicious, as well as our breakfast. Our waitress even gave us suggestions for places to visit off the beaten path. We went to The Devil’s Pulpit and Lennox Castle - both unusual and happy for the recommendation. This has been one of our favorite places to stay on our 2 week Scotland trip.
