Positive Reviews

Fantastic breakfast

Many guests appreciate being given a form to fill out for ordering breakfast every morning and love the black pudding, lorne sausage, and tattie scones. Others add that tea and coffee are freshly brewed.

Adventure-friendly services

Several guests comment there is plenty of space on the main drive for vehicles with trailers, boats, and canoes, and note that there is a drying room for wet-suits and fishing rods. Others add there is a free hose-down space to wash down muddy cars and boats, and appreciate that there is storage space for bait and angling equipment.

Access for disabled and guests with special needs

Some guests appreciate that the rooms on the ground floor are accessible for guests with limited or impaired mobility, and note that the owners are helpful in accommodating guests with disabilities. Others add that there are menus and room instruction leaflets available for guests with impaired eyesight, and note that staff is present to assist the hearing impaired.

Negative Reviews

Rooms could use some upgrades

A handful of guests comment that some rooms don't have a private bathroom. Others add the rooms are small, and there is limited space to store luggage, and comment that the floors creak, and the furniture is slightly worn.

Isolated from city life

Some guests comment that mobile phone reception is spotty, and Internet connection is intermittent and generally slow. Others add that property is isolated from the mainstream city life, but note there are complimentary newspapers to keep guests abreast of the news.

Limited capacity to handle peak season

Many guests comment that the hallways feel cramped during the peak season. Others add that the stairs are narrow and feel tight when there are large crowds, but appreciate the jovial family atmosphere.
