This is listed as a 3-star hotel but it has 5 star heart. The hotel is a wee bit tired but it makes up for it with how clean and airy the rooms the restaurant and the bar area and the whole hotel is spotless. Many hotels list family-friendly but that really only means facilities not with this Hotel this is the best family-friendly I have ever been to. The management and the staff make this hotel the wee gem it is nothing too much bother and smiling faces greet you. This family gives them 5 stars and without a doubt, we will be back...Oh, and the brekkie and evening meals were fab and my grandson who is 4 didn't want to leave. Thank you all for making our stay so relaxed.

We had a fantastic stay. The hotel was hosting a wedding and everyone was having a great time. My kids used the pool (3.5 pound additional charge each, and well worth it). The staff was outstanding everywhere, especially the pool attendant, the rooms were clean and bright. If I were an octopus, I'd give it 8 thumbs up!

Very impressed with how wonderful staff in this hotel, they are so helpful and extremely friendly, especially with kids. I was happy with my staying for 2 night and the kids enjoyed spending time in this hotel especially, they loved swimming. My only complain is the swimming pool service was not free, you have to pay for admission which was unexpected as other hotels offer this facility includes the price of the accommodation. The dinner has not had many choices but the taste, amount and quality of food and freshness were great and acceptable. I would love to use a spa service but unfortunately, we went on the weekend and there was no service of spa and massage therapy that requires a booking in advance. As for the room, I was disappointed a little bit as it did not look the same as advertised on the website, look quite old and dated and when we arrived the sofa was not prepared as promising but after informed the receptionist on the next day they were actively preparing sofa bed for us, this made much satisfaction to the customer that they have service mind and happy to service. Thank you very much for you lovely service.

Very good trip to Scotland to celebrate a special 97 th birthday. The hotel was ideal for us to meet family there and have drinks and a meal together. The staff were very helpful and friendly. The food was very good although the evening menu was a little limited. Would stay there again .

I was really disappointed at having to pay extra to use the hotel pool. I have never heard of this before. I had been looking at several local hotels with pools to take my children for a night away, as they love hotels. This hotel was slightly cheaper than the others at booking, but actually more expensive once pool costs added. Had I known this, I would have booked one of the alternatives as both were more central. Plus, on principle, I object to paying extra to use basic hotel facilities when staying as a guest. This should be included in the advertised price (like any other hotel I’ve ever stayed in).Once I was there, I had no choice but to pay the extra as was too late to cancel and arrange alternative accommodation.
