On our short trip through Scotland, this was our last stay before taking the ferry back to The Netherlands. We've stayed at a lot of hotels before and this is one of the best ones! We stayed in room 2, at the third floor. A nicely decorated room, with everything we needed. The only drawback was the noisy shower... The food in the restaurant is very affordable and simply great! We had the "Early evening menu" for two nights and enjoyed it a lot. Friendly people and a warm welcome... A great end of a great holiday in Scotland!

My wife and I booked a 3 night stay over the Easter Weekend and loved it. The atmosphere of the place is very relaxed, and laid back but not at the expense of effciency. It's like there is always someone there if you need them but you don't really notice it - unobtrusive but efficient. As we intended to do some walking we requested a room with a bath to soothe away the aches, were allocated Room 7 at the far end of the house and it was quiet, attractive decor and a really comfy bed. We stayed ona B&B basis and the breakfast was really good - excellent selection of cold buffet food and cooked breakfasts to order. We also had dinner on 2 of the nights and the food was well prepared and presented and was generally very good although the fillet steak on the first night was slightly disappointing - it was so thick that it was too rare for me but for dedicated red meat eaters I am sure it would have been wonderful.There is an early evening menu which is really good value for money and the full dinner menu from 7pm which is more extensive in choice and pricier. The bar area is small but has that cosy feeling about it and a good selection of drinks available for this size of hotel. It is obvious that the owners work very hard and they succeed in providing a warm,relaxing atmosphere in very pleasant surroundings with excellent food thrown in.If that is the type of break you are looking for then we would highly recommend Poppies - we will certainly go back.
