peaceful stay

large room comfortable beds delicious breakfast r o o m f e a t u r e s
the room was large and the beds were comfortable! the owners provided a cute atmosphere and were very helpful with any questions i had. the breakfast had plenty of choice and i thought it was delicious. despite being next to a road, the building was very quiet.
I wasn't shown the room and its features upon arrival, hard to find the radiator. As a result, the room was quite cold before bedtime.
Dining
9/10
Breakfast offered scottish brands, and that was a lovely touch. i appreciated the variety of options available, from cereals to cooked dishes, ensuring a satisfying start to the day. The quality of ingredients was evident.

the lodge had a self-service bar that offered a great selection of drinks and snacks, even microwave meals! this made it convenient for those evenings when i did not want to go out, and a lounge room was available for relaxation.

spacious room helpful managers
the room was spacious! the breakfast room was also very nice!!! the managers were very helpful!!!! the internet connection worked great. the surroundings are very pretty here.
the host was argumentative when we asked for the heat. he and his wife were not empathetic when one of us sprained her ankle. the lighting in the room is controlled by a switch near the door and requires stepping down to get to it.

hotel decor super clean clean modern en-suite tired hotel cold side inhospitable hosts
The hotel decor was very nice. I found it spotlessly clean. The location was amazing and peaceful. The en-suite was modern. It was really the best I have seen.
I thought the hotel was tired, honestly. It also felt a little on the cold side. I believe the hosts could have been more hospitable in general. They did not seem to put much effort into caring for the guests.
