"I booked a room here for 2 nights for a wedding over at Brig O'Doon and felt very well looked after and "at home" here. When I arrived by car, the car park was a decent size, free to park in and was right outside the hotel. The check in and check out processes were very straightforward and simple. I had a lovely dinner at the hotel restaurant on my first night and the room was very spacious, clean and well designed. The hot chocolate and mini shortbread were a lovely touch! All in all, I had a very enjoyable stay and would highly recommend it!"
