We used this hotel as a refuge from the snowstorms that were affecting much of southern Scotland. The food was of a good quality and was very reasonably priced, but the room was in need of some updating and repairs. Entering the room we attempted to open the wardrobe, but the door knob fell off. The one easy chair [old... More

I have visted this restaurant several times over the past year and I must confess that I have never failed to be anything other than pleasantly surprised by the quality of food on offer, the variety of dishes and the efficient and friendly service by their staff. The restaurant itself is cosmetically 'tired' however please dont let it put you... More

Huge portions and sometimes we have to struggle with our dessert. Bottle of house wine good price and tastes ok. Very busy restaurant and manager and staff all very... More

This hotel was immaculate, friendly and the staff could not do enough to help. Really enjoyable stay and really good breakfast. Goodnight's sleep in a comfortable bed. We asked for a taxi to take us to the wedding we were attending and it was there before we even made the front door. :-))

Friendly staff, good service, decent menu and comfortable rooms. What more can you ask of a small family run hotel? Right price and value for money. I will come back again and again having already had several short stay business visits.
