“This is a dog-friendly place where staff seems to make an effort to create a community, the bar has a vast selection of whiskies, and I read the venison pie is a must-try. It's an updated period hotel, located close to the Grantown Museum; I'd say it's ideal for families seeking outdoor activities. I think this could be a great choice if you want to feel welcomed.”

underwhelming stay

poor soundproofingstale pastries

The room i had, a double room, felt quite basic. there was a noticeable lack of soundproofing. I could hear conversations and noise from other rooms (it was annoying). the breakfast was ok, but the pastries seemed a bit stale. also, the shower temperature was difficult to regulate. It swung from cold to hot unexpectedly.
