Fantastic traditional Scottish hotel. The location is amazing, right beside the canal with beautiful sea views as well.Room with balcony is perfect for enjoying this. Food and staff all excellent. Hope to return soon
This is the kind of hotel that you think doesn’t really exist anymore. It’s full of charm with wonderful rooms overlooking the bay. The owners fishing boat moored just offshore creates the perfect picture. The only negative is the 1950s bathroom with no proper shower arrangement, just a small rather feeble shower head on a hose. The hotel has two lounges - both furnished beautifully - and a restaurant. However, evening meals were served in the bar - very cosy. The owner and her son are always there and always keen to chat: both are renowned artists and the hotel has numerous paintings, illustrating their talent. The family and their wonderful staff make you feel like guests in their home - and I think that is exactly the planned sentiment. Some staff seem to create further ‘glue’, notably the everpresent young lady in the restaurant and the equally everpresent young man at reception: both a credit to the hotel. Relentlessly enthusiastic and friendly. This really is what hospitality is all about.
The location is quite stunning and the views spectacular. Sadly, the rooms were a bit small and tired-looking for the price. We ate in the hotel restaurant which, in contrast to the rooms, offered high quality and good value for money..
