A diamond in the rough enjoyed every minute of our stay. The place is very elegant with a fresh water river flowing beside it with a walking path. I will definitely stay here again if I’m ever in the area.

ROB

We used this hotel as a half way point. Staff very friendly and attentive! Hotel needs renovation tbh. Web site makes it look in much better condition. Food while expensive for eve meal was delicious! We didn't get to try the Scottish Breakfast as on a Saturday it begins at 8am. We left at 7.30am. Historically interesting with Robbie Burns of fame being a local once upon a time.
