The best place I know...

Liked: The evening meal was excellent. We eat in a lot of places, and I have rarely had better roast lamb. The staff were also very friendly and easy to talk to. I will look forward to talking again next time.
Disliked: There are not the facilities you get in some hotels - gym, spa, etc. But it is not that sort of place - and I wouldn't use them anyway.

Liked: Brilliant stay, very clean and staff extremely helpful. Amazing view of the gardens

Very good

A bit dissappointing compared to...

Liked: Breakfast was well presented and plentiful. The staff I encountered during my stay were polite, happy and helpful. The service was generally very good. The general impression is that the staff were happy in their work.
Disliked: The location of the room was almost next to the working areas of the hotel, on the ground floor, on the wrong side of, and, next to a connecting corridor fire door. The room door rattled so much each time the fire door opened I had to prop a chair up against the room door. It did not help that there were children running in and out of the door until nearly 12.30! I have on previous visits (though not for a time) been accommodated on the upper floor with a view to the Forth. the back wall next to the kitchen areas not as nice.

A charming small old hotel...
