Who would have thought it, five star quality in the wee village of Marywell. Peter and Brenda were so hospitable, Brenda even coming out on the street to make sure we didn't miss the turn off as we arrived quite late at night. Peter was a fantastic host and we were very lucky to have the whole place to ourselves.... More

When we returned after dinner the place had been transformed. Lovely! Peter was so wonderful; did a load of laundry for us, charged our cell phones and... More

We spent eight nights in Scotland, staying at a different B + B each night, and this was by far the best of a very good bunch. Peter and Brenda Murphy were warm and welcoming, and the accommodation comfortable, spacious and beautiful. We were not only recommended a good place to eat but had the booked table for us, and...

Perfection is hard to beat, but pleasing to occasionally achieve. Thank you so much for your feedback, you are very kind and your comments are extremely motivational. Recognition builds confidence from the simple knowledge that one is doing things right. Thank you. More

The Willowbank House is a quaint little B&B just outside of Arbroath. The owners, Peter and Brenda, are incredibly friendly and see to it that your stay is the best it can possibly be with their warm hospitality. The rooms and sitting area are very nicely laid out and comfortable with very current electronics, such as a big screen tv... More
