From reading the reviews on this site we were very excited about our stay in Barony House. The lady who greeted us on arrival was very friendly and pleasant. She checked us in quickly, explained how to order breakfast. The room was a nice size, bright and clean with a big and very comfortable bed - we slept really well. The bathroom was very small but quite clean. The shower wasn't very powerful but it did the job! In the toiletries basket I found an old, half-used bottle of shampoo - not sure if that was supposed to be complimentary or the maid failed to see that it had been left behind by another guest. We had a small decanter of sherry and two glasses in the room which was a nice tough. The breakfast room was very dated. We were told at check in that when we came down to breakfast there would be a small wait as the eggs would be freshly cooked, so when we got down we helped ourselves to cereal and fruit salad and waited for the eggs to be ready. After a 15-20 minute wait we went up to the hot food section and realised that our eggs had been cooked and placed on there without us being told. They had been placed in a small pot in a bowl of hot water but were lukewarm by the time we served them up - it would have been nice to have been told how the breakfast system actually worked or when our eggs were ready! We were given the wrong toast two mornings in a row, and there was no haggis left even though I ordered some. The rest of the breakfast was nice but really nothing special and some things had obviously been sat there for a while, after reading the reviews we expected something pretty good! As I said before the lady was very friendly but did not seem to have a very good knowledge of the area - she knew about some restaurants on the same road but couldn't recommend anything further afield. She also did not know what number bus we had to catch into town or how often they came - we eventually worked this out for ourselves. We had reserved a parking space (there is only one) which was really handy as it was just outside - it would have been a bit annoying if we'd had to park further away. Overall, it was a comfortable, clean and pleasant stay in a good location - not the height of luxury, but a reasonable price for what you get!
