First up I take no pleasure in pointing out the shortcomings of our trip here. We had been here twice previously under different management and had found it a great base from which to explore the surrounding area. Secondly it's clear it will only survive if more people visit it and spend money, and certainly the proprietor was suffering greatly... More

When we first pulled up outside this hotel we felt a little disappointed, but don't be deceived by the exterior which needs a coat of paint and a few hanging baskets and flower pots would make it look a little more welcoming (it was raining when we arrrived). The friendly welcome, cosy room and exquisite menu with wonderful local produce... More

Super friendly and helpful service, excellent breakfast and high quality food available in the restaurant. The rooms would benefit from a bit of minor tlc and DIY here and there but they met our needs, comfortable and clean.

Received a warm welcome from the owner on arrival. The bedroom was of moderate standard, the en-suite was quite small although both were very clean. The pump in the bathroom was very noisy and sounded when the toilet was flushed or the shower was running. We ate dinner in the restaurant and the chef was very accommodating in terms of... More

A last minute decision - booked online thru lastminute.com. Stuck in the 60's with not much love and attention since - very disappointing.

We were made to feel very welcome after my friend driving all day from the North West of Scotland. The rooms were clean and as the Inn is set back from the main road we didn't get woken by traffic. In fact it was very quiet in the room we had which was facing the road. There are spaces for... More

I recently stayed at the Glenkindie Arms as I was working in the area. I cannot fault it one bit. On arrival, I was met at the front door by Ian, the head chef, who showed me up to my modest but comfortable room and explained where everything was and how everything worked. I met with colleagues who had been... More

The rooms weren't anything special, but it was clean, and if anything a bit too warm for us (but easy to change that!) - but we didn't spend much time in it anyway! Being the weekend before the Easter holidays and not particularly nice weather, the hotel was very quiet, but that meant Ian, the owner, had time to chat... More

Where do i start... I went to this hotel as part of a business trip for work at Glenbuchat and was assured that this hotel would be the perfect place to stay and would meet our needs. Upon arriving at the hotel, the building was very run down from the outside. Inside the kitchen and restaurant were very pleasing to... More
