The breakfast was unbelievable. The staff were very cute. They even made us a packed lunch as we had to leave early in the morning.

The menu was very limited. The food quality was mediocre at best. All sauces came straight out of a jar, not even good brands.

good breakfastgenerous sizehelpful staffpoor reception

Breakfast was very good (especially the toaster!). The full breakfast had a generous size and I felt full for hours. The poached eggs were done very well. The staff were very pleasant and helpful. The house has a British feel and interesting Scottish location. The staff were cute on arrival and helpful . Dinner was delicious with local beers on tap.

The entrance road was not inviting. The windows had not been cleaned on the outside for years and looked murky to look through. Paintwork was peeling in places. The TV had poor reception and needed adjusting to get a better signal.
