This lovely old coaching inn is so convenient for Ross town centre. I love the sitting room (in winter they have a real fire). The staff are very helpful (offer to carry bags upstairs) and the good is better than excellent. This isn’t my first stay and it won't be my last.

Great place to stay

A very good stay. Great location. Plenty of character with period stairs and floors. Would have given 5 stars if the maintenance had been a bit better. Just little things really, all easily fixable. Would certainly recommend for a stay.
