Access is very poor for coaches causing damage to the bottom of your coach as the incline is very steep. The rooms are old very dated and smell of damp the women on reception has a extremely bad attitude and the evening meal was a 5 minute walk away in a pub owned by them I would not recommend this place and would stay at the big hotel in the village.

Majority of photos online don't reflect the hotel in Scotland, I think they are mixed up with a different hotel. In serious need of updating, the decor is dated and everything looks and smells old. The rooms smelt damp and fousty. The bathroom looked grubby and in need of a deep clean and the shower was mouldy and leaking. Restaurant only capable of serving breakfast so wasnt happy with the 5 minute trek to the pub to eat my tea. Also, Wasn't impressed with the attitude of some of the staff, not very friendly and extremely unhelpful and could do with learning some basic manners. Highly disappointed and certainly will not be returning.

Dated hotel which doesn't do its own food. You have to book in at the pub down the road, which is excellent. Book early though.
