Good,but disappointed
Having stayed at Friars Carse before,with two small dogs we didnt dine in. This time only having one and advertised as dog friendly,we decided to do so.For this we payed £15 per night,we stayed two nights and received a dog blanket and two metal bowls in our room. Dinner first night was in a piano room with dining chairs and table and low background music. The waiter could not be more attentive and we had an excellent dinner. Breakfast the next day was in the same piano room,though if you required orange juice,toast or cereal,you had to walk to the main dining room some 50 yards away. That night for dinner our actual anniversary we were informed,that we would be in the small bar area,this time the seating comprised of a club chair and high small circular table.adjacent to a covered table that fishermen the night before tied flies at. Once served with dinner,fish and chips,we again had to ask for condiments and vinegar and waited a good 5-7 minutes,while the waitress served at the bar,following this the glass/dish washer was switched on and it being a small room,conversation was difficult.After the main course,we again waited and had to move our plates away to an adjoining table,while the washer still rumbled on. We did raise our concerns with a member of staff at reception,but while they sympathised,they stated that only two staff members were covering the bar and dining room,the bar area was unsuitable for dining and and although charged for nothing was provided for dogs
