“Great little hotel - superb service”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2009
1
person found this review helpful

We stayed before going to a wedding. We were running late and called ahead to check directions - the owner met us at the door with our key and took our case to save us as much time as possible - unexpected and welcome service.

The room was very large and spacious, with a huge bay window (room 2, I think). The bed was comfly and the bathroom was very clean and well stocked with toiletries and towels.

Scottish breakfast in the morning - loads of food and very tasty.

Staff were very friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend a stay here.

Staff were very friendly and accomodating. We were in a very spacious room. We stayed for 2 nights and enjoyed our meal on both evenings. Decent menu. We enjoyed our stay.

just returned from weekend break at the old racecourse hotel,got a great deal on ebay,room spacious and clean,shower great,food great value for money,staff pleasant but kept very busy so table service pretty slow,my only complaint would be that set menu only has one vegetarian option and since i didnt fancy eating macaroni two nights in a row i had to choose from other menu and pay extra,sunday breakfast was one potato scone ,halftomato and an egg-dissapointing. other than that great stay

“What a great little hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 6 September 2008

person found this review helpful

My wife and I spent a long weekend here, and hardly ventured outside. The rooms are warm and comroftable, the food is excellent and it has a busy bar with locals and hotel guest both using it.

It is located 5 mins from the town centre in a quiet resedential street so you are not disturbed in the night the same way as some places near busy roads.

I would reccomend to anyone who is looking for a weekend away, or a midweek stay because everything you need is here.
