“If the restaurant is any indication, a stay here promises a delightful experience; the white chocolate waffle alone makes the journey worthwhile. I'm impressed this is a family-run establishment near Rosslyn Chapel, and the dog-friendly stance is a significant advantage for many. From what I've gathered, the flexible check-in and themed rooms would certainly enhance any visit to the area.”
