very friendly staff and enjoyed our stay. Disappointed about menus, altough food very tasty. Sample menu had lamb rump, duck and beef cheek ,these were not included during our stay. Would have prefered to serve own coffee and toast as available when wanted. Waiting staff ,although very busy were pleasant and friendly.

DISAPPOINTING
The hotel is set in a nice location and is only a short walk into the village. The pool area is nice. Rooms are comfortable but sound insulation is next to non existent. The guy in the room near us snored all night. Had he been in bed with us it could not have been much louder. The towels were thread bare. Breakfast has the usual fruit, yoghurt, corn flakes etc and is fine. The hot food is kept in metal containers heated by gas burners. They do not work well and the food is lukewarm. The bacon was limp and the sausages undercooked. Some items are cooked to order. My wife's porridge had uncooked oats floating on top. It had the consistency of a runny soup. It was inedible. I was asked how I wanted my boiled eggs cooked. I said I was not fussy so long as the white were firm and not runny. They were raw and inedible. I told the waiter and she said there was a function on later in the day and the chef was stressed. That's ok then! For a chef, in Scotland of all places, to come up with a rubbish porridge and be unable to boil eggs properly takes some doing. We won't stay there again.

This hotel use to be fantastic, how it has gone downhill. The main lampshade in the bedroom was all broken , the tiles in the bathroom were only cleaned to where the cleaner could reach ! The fan needed cleaning The corridor where you walk to the rooms passes the pool roof which was just weeds ! Very unkempt. The breakfast - poached eggs cold and could have been used as golf balls ! The staff looked as if they were just going through the motions . Very disappointed!

Worst night’s sleep!
The exterior is beautiful and very grand. The interior just as nice in entrance however the bedrooms a getting dated. It was lovely to use the pool. The hot tub was out of order wen we arrived. This is not so much an issue but having a good night sleep is and we didn’t. It was awful. We could hear everything and this was also with earplugs in. Banging of doors, scraping of furniture, kettles boiling, people talking on the corridor, flushing of the toilet and the cistern filling up (from other rooms). The pipe work made everything echo. To finish it all off we were woken (after getting 3 hour sleep) by a wine deliver at 7.30 in the morning! When I told reception on the way out they just said sorry, that was it! Will never stay here again.
