"The food and staff were amazing! We felt like we traveled back in time and were treated like first-class guests. It's close to bus stops that can take you to the city centre of Glasgow and Edinburgh. It was a great stay for my husband and I. I highly recommend adding the breakfast that is served every morning instead of the simple continental. Wendy, our server, was fabulous. Also, if you need a taxi the hotel can arrange it, Ubers are not popular.
For people wanting to bring families, I must warn this was definitely a more mature hotel experience. The pool, gym, and spa are not designed for young children; they are meant for a quiet, relaxing experience. We did not have any children with us, but noticed that the spa area rules didn't allow splashing, jumping in the pool, or anything that might disturb others.
Outside of that, for adults, this was a fantastic place to stay. It is a historic hotel, and like most of the UK, there is no air conditioning, so keep that in mind. The garden was beautiful and fun to walk around after dinner. I wish that the garden had more variety of plants to look at and the well (fire pit?) was managed a bit more but other than that it was a fantastic stay and we would definitely rebook."
