Our first stay at the hotel and it won’t be our last. Del is a great host, really friendly and a great host. The rooms are very clean, the beds are comfortable and there’s plenty of places to eat locally. Del has a well stocked bar too. A perfect place to stop off on a long journey or a good base for a few days.

A lovely, Dog friendly hotel. My room was clean and comfortable, with a lovely view of the mountains. The staff are great, they made myself and my Dog feel so welcome. The location is good as well. I would definitely stay here again, Thank you.

I would not recommend staying here.I went to check out my room upon arrival. The lady who assisted said she did not normally work there but at the Tweed Shop down the road and was helping her daughter.The place had a very pungent smell. Like cigarette smoke, stale alcohol and mold all rolled into one. I only survived five minutes before having to leave because it affected my airways so bad.The room that I was given was not clean. The bed nearly folded in half when I sat on it. And the raw piece of mdf board that looked like it had recently been put up as a make shift head board had bodily fluid stains on it.I asked for another room and was told by the lady they were fully booked and they didn’t have another room.I contacted the emergency line for my travel agent who told me to stay somewhere else.When I told them I was not staying due to the conditions of the room. They asked how they could refund me. I told them my travel agent would be in touch. They have since refused the refund and said there was nothing wrong with the rooms.Absolute disgrace. Don’t Stay Here!

The hotel was clean and well equipped. The staff were friendly and helpful. Some rooms are ensuite others shared but all facilities were good. Older building conversion so there was the usual creaking floors but nothing to put off a good sleep! Decent value and on site bar. No food was available but great local recommendations which we made good use of. Just off the A9 it's easy to get to and parking is just on street outside so very easy. Will use again if in area!

Had a great nights sleep. Bed was comfortable and the communal bathrooms were clean and well looked after. It didn’t feel like you were sharing a bathroom at all. The bar is cosy and breakfast was good. Will definitely come again in the future.
