The location was spot on for us, especially as we had our dog with us. Being set back from the A7, it was convenient with a garden area and park just across the road, as well as being a short distance to shops.

The dining experience was professionally cooked and presented by efficient and tentative staff. The food was delicious, but the portion size was a bit lacking in some items like a single tiny sausage and a rasher of bacon.

My stay at the hotel was a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were beautiful and clean, though the location above the function room in the ground floor annexe gave a clinical feel. The service was excellent with friendly and helpful staff, but the dining experience left much to be desired. The location was great, near the town center and in beautiful grounds, but there were some issues with room odors and dining quality.
