Beautiful room. Unfortunately the kitchen was closed the night we were staying, but we were able to enjoy a couple of pints in the pub after we arrived.

Well signposted and so very easy to find! Very friendly welcome, comfortable, cosy bar and pretty decent food.
Our room was large with a huge bed and the only negative was the condensation on the inside of the windows.

It is located in a quaint little, friendly town and was easy to find. The staff was very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was very good. The room was clean and comfortable. It was interesting to read about the history of the town and the hotel.

Very warm welcome to this very historic pub in a delightful village. It ticked all the boxes & we both had the best night’s sleep for a long time. Can highly recommend this pub & we would certainly return if we were in the area again.

Most amazing stay at this Community Owned pub and and inn. The room was lovely and we enjoyed our evening in the pub with the locals, learning the history of the area. Food was fantastic, fire was cozy and it was fun watching the football match with them. Charming and wonderful. thank you!

Very much enjoyed the dinner, absolutely delicious, as well as our breakfast. Our waitress even gave us suggestions for places to visit off the beaten path. We went to The Devil’s Pulpit and Lennox Castle - both unusual and happy for the recommendation.
This has been one of our favorite places to stay on our 2 week Scotland trip.
