Upon arrival and entry the hotel looked amazing. The reception and bars are quite beautiful…Our room had stains all over the carpet and was just ok. The whole place needs a bit of love and attention as it’s looking really tatty in places. We ventured to the pool /spa area - again looks dated and tatty - changing rooms not great and I didn’t get into the pool as the water was milky…loads of little kids in the jacuzzi. Such a shame as I’m sure it was lovely in its day.

Nice hotel, lovely setting and good car parking. Hotel staff friendly and helpful. Disappointed that the Spa, although open, had swimming lessons taking place for several hours on the Saturday and the featured Whisky bar was closed Saturday night (the other hotel bar was however, open)

We were made so welcome from our arrival, until we departed. The rooms were lovely and roomy and perfectly clean. There were meal options, you could eat in the dining room or have something simple in the bar area. The city is only ten minutes away and the gardens and surrounding area are perfectly kept and make you feel like you are in the grounds of a stately home. It was perfect for us.

Great place to relax. Super dog friendly. Staff friendly. Soapies bar, the barman worked hard and was v friendly. However, need a better system for bar & food service. Was extremely busy and no waiting staff to be seen. Having to order food at bar. More like a wetherspoons than a hotel or 4 star service. Tables in drawing room seemed to be overlooked by staff and felt like an inconvenience.

I requested to check in early, even though they said they can’t guarantee it - the room was ready when we arrived. Kudos to all - its very much appreciated. The staff are very polite and attentive. I’d also like that there was an oat milk in the fridge, It was handy when I couldn’t find one at the breakfast area. I didn’t have to ask for it, and I had enjoyed my cuppa instead in the room. Would have been nice to arrive in the room with a bottle of water though? But again, knowing you can drink the water from the tap in Scotland, this is just a wee observation.
