Excellent location

In need of a bit of TLC on the rooms and outside.

vintage

decadenza eccessiva

Beautiful building in lovely setting

Inexperienced and unhelpful staff, this is a hotel very must catering for coach party's. Private guests are not looked after and breakfast is not the best. No Scottish beer on tap at the bar. New owners in April 2024 would give this place a wide berth until end of the year at least to give them time to improve would rate this at the moment as a 1* B&B in my opinion.

Nothing we cannot sleep all night because of loud sounds people making at 2am till morning.

All floor is creaking,carpet is totally bad condition.

Spacious inside, grand features

Nothing to mind

The main hall/reception area and the various quiet rooms in the main part of the ground floor were very nice spaces, well maintained and very grand.

As seems to be the case with so many grand old hotels it was a great shame that, although the main part of the hotel was grand and imposing, clean and tidy, the rooms themselves have been left to deteriorate over the decades. I'm not overly fussy about accommodation and dont look for perfection, but there was something forlorn and a bit sad about our room. The old fire place had been boarded over, the ceiling lowered, which cut a decent chunk off the lovely old sash windows. The taps were wonky, the bath a bit mouldy, the toilet cistern lid had been broken in half and glued back together, the mirror chipped. Peeling textured wall paper, worn and slightly grubby carpets and a vague smell of foostyness. The furniture looked like it had been fished out of a second hand shop. The beds were comfortable though. This could be a real gem of a hotel if only they invested wisely in a tasteful interior. After all, it doesn't really matter what the rest of the hotel is like, it's the room you've paid for.

The staff and the food were great. It was very dog friendly and they were lovely to me and my dog.

The room was a bit tired

The property is a grand building. With good communal rooms. The location of the property is great with everything you need on the door step.

The rooms had stained walls, it was just a bit grubby. The bed was clean and the sheets.
