10/10 Excellent
"Good location; very economical; comfortable. A lack of tea and coffee in the room (the chamomile tea was welcome after the long drive). The wifi firewall blocked a few pages I would have liked to access (silly games - but online video streaming worked). I didn't take breakfast, but the offer was very welcome. Overall, a very pleasant stay."

Liftingstane Farmhouse

10/10 Excellent
"Liftingstane farmhouse was excellent, clean and with everything we needed, a home from home. Plenty bedding and towels. Kitchen also well equipped. Well catered for our dog, with bowls, poo bags, treats and towels. Worth mentioning that dogs aren't permitted in the bedrooms, which we weren't aware of from the website.WiFi was a good speed which was an added bonus as we needed to work remotely for a few days, plus EE 4G signal was good in the area too. The owners were very friendly, welcoming and helpful, and popped in to make sure we had settled in ok and had everything we needed."
