The rooms are always clean and comfortable with nice touches such as local chocolates, fresh milk and Scottish sourced toiletries. Jules and Lloyd are a great team and always make us... More

Lloyd and Julia welcomed us as if we were family, instantly sparking rapport and an evening of both good banter and tantalising food! Simply put - we had an exceptional and memorable evening with the best company in town. Listening to Lloyd... More
