This place is superb! We were doing the NC500 and wanted to stay somewhere that would support the local community. The food at the place is just delicious! One of the best meals on the way around. …

Maybe doesn't look like much at first but they have got a fantastic chef, food is not fancy but the flavours and textures are really elevated. Staff very friendly, some great local beer in the fridge and my room was large and comfortable. Well done all.

Stopped off with my wife one evening on the spur of the moment for a meal. Lady serving from behind the bar was super friendly and welcoming. Good was the best we have sampled so far absolutely lovely, goats cheese salad, porcini ravioli, belly pork main and celeriac soup. Plus a pint of larger each dish to us was exceptional would definitely recommend to friends. Not the cheapest our bill was £60 odd but well worth the money.

Stayed overnight in May to attend a wedding. Our room was fresh, comfortable, with a view to die for. We only had breakfast, but the food was excellent. One of our party couldn't face eating (don't ask!), but - unasked - staff prepared sandwiches for him to have on the journey home.

We came to the restaurant - the staff were friendly, welcoming, and accommodating when we asked about vegan options! They did a fantastic vegan meal, and the chicken was excellent too. Great beers and whiskies!

I had a fantastic four night stay. My room was spotless and very comfortable. Owner and other staff were brilliant, and nothing seemed to be too much trouble. Will definitely be my preferred accommodation if staying in the area in the future.

Fantastic location and great double aspect room. Very comfy bed and lovely soft linen. The only disappointment was a somewhat pricey meal with a tough steak.
