"This was the first stop on our Scotland trip and we were blown away! Amazing staff, beautiful clean rooms, amazing food and drink. I think what we liked best was the family feeling. Guests leaned in and talked to each other both on the patio and in the lounge. We felt more like house guest than hotel guests. Having dogs around seemed to be a nice ice breaker. We have recommended this gem of a place to everyone we meet. Go, stay, you will probably want to return!"
