“Need to revise the dog friendly policy ”
- • Leisure trip

- • Stayed 1 night

The hotel states dog are welcome on its website. On our arrival we were very disappointed to be informed that dogs could not go in the restaurant (understandably) bar or lounge.. only the bedrooms and advised if we wanted to stay with our dog then we would have to eat in the bedroom. However on raising this issue with the management, the staff were very accommodating and allowed us to spend time in separate room to eat and lounge which albeit a little isolating, was comfortable. The hotel is not set up appropriately to accommodate dogs so either needs to create dog friendly areas/amenities or amend its hotel policy.
The food was great and staff very accommodating

WIFI was poor as my phone was faster and more reliable. Breakfast was good but the evening menu was restrictive and given the lack of eateries locally disappointing although the food was well presented and cooked. If I were to return I would need to do my homework first on where to eat at night there are few choices
the building was a piece of Scotland, with typical architecture and very much what I was looking for

I enjoyed the stay, wasn't to keen on the room, because it was looking out onto part of the building, and the wall paper was falling off on a couple of bits in the room, apart from that the staff were wery friendly and polite, and loved the breakfast
Friendly staff in the hotel, the hotel was very clean and tidy,

The room and bathroom were very outdated and though may have been 'clean' didn't necessarily look so with the stains in the bathroom. The walls between the rooms were also very thin.
The Hotel has charm and character and the dining area and other parts of the Hotel were very interesting.

Our room was very dull with no view at all other than looking onto the other side of the building. We were above the kitchen I think which was very noisy and not relaxing at all .
The scenery around the hotel is stunning
