Beautiful hotel - staff extremely helpful and efficient. Well appointed rooms - lovely decor and furnishings, bathrooms had plentiful toiletries and amenity kits. Cleanliness throughout. Food was fantastic in both restaurants - especially enjoyed the dinner at Sandemans. Big thank you to Daniel and his colleagues for making it a lovely experience - and huge congratulations to Chef and his team for the fabulous menu. The food was outstanding! Enjoyed using the pool and sauna facilities - spa staff were very friendly and helpful too. Would definitely recommend this hotel to anyone who wishes to experience great food and Scottish hospitality! Hoping to make a return visit for sure. Thank you so much!

Stayed a couple of years ago and definitely gone downhill. Seems to be reducing costs at detriment to customer experience. Low quality toiletries (not even supplied on first night). Pool/spa area needing a refurb, lockers not working in changing rooms, pool area needing refreshed and painted. Hot tubs outside not fully working and scum around rim. . Lack of variety in breakfast fruit options and low quality in cooked breakfast. Overall not a 5 star experience and really disappointed.
