classic stay
beautiful grounds classic decor
the grounds were beautiful. the interior design was classic with highland decor. the breakfast service was good and the staff were pleasant. there was a doggy bag available nearby, next to a disused railway line which is excellent for dog walking.
i noticed cobwebs in my room, and the window was broken. it would not close properly. i called services for around 30 minutes without an answer, so i had to sleep in a cold room that night.

my superior king room was spacious and clean. the bed was comfortable and provided a good night's sleep. i liked the traditional furnishings which complemented the building's character.
