From the moment we arrived all the staff were incredibly friendly, helpful and created a welcoming ethos. Special mention to the host who checked us in, she was consistently in a great mood and always looking to make our stay positive. During dinner I asked about the history of the building, and the lovely staff member was quick to print out a mini newspaper! I couldn't fault the experience. Some aspects are dated- but this is a historic building! I will definitely visit again

Became my favorite hotel in Scotland, just wish they had my king bed available as stated on my reservation, and a bit more firm pillows. Beautiful property, walking around there was lovely. Staff are amazing! Would definitely go back :)

We traveled over 20 hrs to get to Scotland and were tired. They let us check in early and we promptly fell asleep. The beds were very comfy and the shower was perfect. The food in the bar was perfect same with the breakfast. Thank you for all your help with directions and calling taxis.

From arrival to departure- this was a great stay. The staff were brilliant. Very friendly and helpful on arrival; always smiling and chatty. The grounds and gardens are very nice to walk around. The pool and leisure club are easy to access. All very clean and tidy. Again staff in the leisure club were brilliant. There’s a cosy wee bar left of reception, which does a cracking pint. Breakfast was fantastic, the staff very friendly and welcoming. They got everything spot on, and it was one of the nicest hotel breakfast experiences I think we’ve had. Local area is great for access to Edinburgh and shops/restaurants. Charging in car park is easy to use through app and trouble free. We are coming back as soon as we can!

Clean room and staff were excellent from beginning to end. Very pet friendly. Only real downside was the breakfast. Menu was good but number of the listed items were missing. For the gluten free breakfast instead of substituting or increasing items to compensate the serving was half the size. One rasher of bacon, 4 mushrooms, small amount of beans and crispy scrambled eggs

Beautiful gardens surround what clearly was a stunning manor house in its day. Met at reception by a cheerful helpful lass who soon had us booked in. Room was very dated and tired and desperately needed a full refresh. A questionable mark on the bed valance caused concern. The bath plug spun wildly and wouldn't seal meaning a bath was out the question. Saying that there was no shortage of hot water for a shower. We slept well enough and beds were comfortable. Breakfast was nothing short of a comedy sketch, the only people missing were Manuel and Polly. Cooked breakfast eventually arrived and was edible, other than the fried egg which was like a frisbee. Enjoyed our swim the following morning. Pool was clean and warm but I couldn’t find an unoccupied locker that would actually lock. These things generally come down to value for money versus expectations. We have stayed at some outstanding hotels all over the UK but they cost a small fortune. We paid brass buttons for our one night stay and as an overall experience it was enjoyable and actually quite funny at times. Staff were friendly and chatty which in our book goes a long way in making up for some of Faulty Towers moments. If you can get a storming good deal and you are of a relaxed and easy going disposition like us there's no reason not to book. If you are looking for a flawless experience and paying full price I'd look elsewhere.

We had an excellent stay at this hotel and would highly recommend it, especially for families travelling with dogs. We stayed with our family and two large dogs, and the experience exceeded our expectations. The hotel was very welcoming and accommodating — it’s clear they genuinely understand what guests with pets need. There was plenty of space, and we never felt uncomfortable or restricted with our dogs. The staff were friendly, helpful, and made us feel at ease from the moment we arrived. Everything was clean, well-organised, and family-friendly, which made the whole stay relaxing and enjoyable. It’s not always easy to find a place that comfortably accommodates larger dogs, but this hotel does it effortlessly. We would definitely stay again and highly recommend it to anyone travelling with family and pets.
