Lovely hotel in the countryside, next to a main road so you can hear a bit of traffic noise when the doors are open for ventilation, some areas require a spruce up/lick of paint but it doesn't pretend to be something it's not. The staff are friendly and attentive, the room was comfortable and had everything you required for your stay. Our evening meal was very nice at a reasonable cost, we had night out in the area and arrived back in the early hours of the morning and it was lovely having a front door key to let ourselves in rather than having to buzz someone to open it.
I never take a cooked breakfast and was a bit disappointed with the alternate offering, I would have liked to see some croissants and pastries as well as the cereal but perhaps there is not a big demand for this as other guests were enjoying the cooked breakfast which was served piping hot by a very pleasant waitress. Checkout was simple and straightforward, we would stay here again if looking for accommodation in the area.

Very friendly, efficient staff, quick service, lovely decor. Food well presented and tasty. Had an issue with the venison, very tough, addressed this with the Chef and he agreed. Spoke to the Owner who was fantastic. Apart from this we'll worth a visit.

Passed this place a number of times and decided to give it a try for lunch. Food was great and service great too. Only downside I would say is the restaurant wasent very well signposted and is slightly hidden away at the back. Would definitely return.

Service a little bit slow but it was the day before Valentine's Day and the place was busy. Staff very helpful and friendly - very young so understandably not too knowledgeable about the drinks. Cullen Skink starter a little disappointing but main (Classic Millhouse burger) very good. Didn't have a desert. 4 stars

Great food. Waiters stayed calm under pressure. I enjoyed seeing a woman being really loud steaming one night then very meek the next morning. Wish I could give 5.5 stars but here we are

Nice friendly atmosphere but food let it down. Fish and chips and chicken strips was like it was from the chippy. Too much batter and very greasy.

The meal was nice and the staff attentive. A greyhound dog which was a pet was allowed in the eating area which spoilt the evening as my husband is allergic to cats and dogs although they would not have known that. I personally don't think dogs should be allowed ln an eating area and there were no signs to say they are allowed and there was nothing on the website

Perfect for an evening meal for two. Nice setting and friendly staff. The food was great and was very impressed with the Venison which melted in the mouth (highly recommend you try it). The only reason for giving 4* was that the service was quite slow otherwise would have been 5/5.
