Lovely setting

Very picturesque location beside the bridge over the river. Very attentive owner who was keen to make our stay comfortable. The room was comfortable with good quality furnishings. Great to sit out on the river terrace with a pre-dinner drink.

The staff were friendly and helpful. They couldn’t do enough for you. Location was good for local towns and ideal for visits to Loch Ken.

Lovely and helpful staff

Lovely inn along a beautiful river. Arrived late due to car troubles. Kitchen was closed and owner graciously offered to make something, which we very much appreciated. Volunteered to help with our tire issue but in the end rental car company sent some one. Would recommend to anyone.

Really old fashioned and poor service

Upon arrival I was rudely told that I had done my booking incorrectly and only booked 2 people instead of 3. Although they have no evidence that it was my mistake, they insisted that it was and were very rude about it. The rooms were very old fashioned and needed upgrading and had mould in the corner shower. There was very few options for breakfast, not much for vegans and no childrens options, it also wasn't well run as we had to hang around waiting for someone. The owners let their dog lick my childs face without trying to stop it or appologising too, I find that unacceptable.

Comme à la maison...

Hôtel où on se sent comme chez soi, notre hôte était chaleureux et très sympathique, notre chambre très confortable (le + les draps Highland cow), repas et petit déjeuner très bon, et un jeune serveur adorable... Tout était parfait...

Unfortunately, except in the Lounge, WIFI reception is effectively nil. Also, the fire alarm kept going off during the night.

Disappointing Stay

Late booking meant that I had to accept the last room in the hotel which was a family room, but with a double occupancy price. When we arrived we found that the room was on the top floor looking down onto the A713 which was very noisy, the room itself could have done with a deep clean as there was quite a lot of dust and a number of spider webs on the ceiling. At dinner I ordered the Gammon Steak and my wife ordered the Haddock & chips, the food looked really good until I started to eat the Gammon, it had a sour taste and after eating a couple of pieces I decided not to take it any further and went looking for Mark who was working front of house and he offered to take it away and get something else for me, I opted for the Chicken but didn’t realise that I would have to wait a further fifteen minutes for my meal to arrive, by this time my wife had finished her meal. I asked Mark if anyone in the kitchen had tasted the Gammon and he said that he had and the meat was definitely off and couldn’t understand why. I wasn’t offered a reduction on my meal and for having to wait for the replacement dish.I paid Mark in full for our stay before we left. It wasn’t until later that day that I had to ring the hotel and left a message on their voicemail to make sure that no one else was served with the Gammon as I really didn’t feel too good, I thought that the hotel would have rang me back to see if I was Ok but they didn't. We won't be staying or eating there again

They are the most attentive and gracious staff that you can imagine. Beautiful location next to the river. Food is excellent especially the sticky toffee. I gave it all 5's because 6's aren't an option. Definitely staying there next time I visit.

Stayed for one night and found the hotel to be in a very pleasant setting adjacent to a river with a picturesque bridge. The hotel had character and was well presented and enjoyable to stay in

Friendly family run hotel, restaurant and bar

A 2 night stay to break a 9 hour drive back from our holiday on Skye. We had a great time in this friendly family run hotel with restaurant and bar. We had a family room and our kids loved their full size single beds. The restaurant had a superb selection of very tasty from proper curry to staple favourites like steak and ale - and catered well for children too. The area caters well for hikers, walkers and those seeking mountain bike trails and great road riding routes too. It's also in the middle of a dark sky park (first in U.K. for star gazing and night sky watching). It is also within 30 mins of several of the 7Stanes forest centres with green, blue, red and black MTB routes. We went to Kirroughtree which had a great visitor centre with MTB (incl kids bikes) hire for £25 for a day - worth it just for the red taster route if you are new to MTB. Alternative Highand Games was also on the weekend (first Sunday in Aug) we visited. Owners were very friendly and helpful, and let us use their bike store for overnight security of our 4 mountain bikes. Good selection of local ales. A great stay and we will come back next year. Thanks to the owners and their team. A long review to say simply: if you stay here you are making a great choice, and the hotel is right on the River Ken.
