Steer clear of this place is my advice. Might have been good in it’s day under previous owners, but genuinely my stay was the worst I have ever had. I booked here last minute due to a family bereavement. After being awake for 3 days, all I wanted was a comfy bed, with some warmth and hot water for me and my young boy and wifi to keep him occupied. No hot water, next to no heating, no wifi signal and the room was extremely dirty, later we found a rodent trap behind a unit. I spent around 2 hours in the room, during wich I complained about this. I asked for a refund and got told where to go. So

We had booked rooms for 2 adults and 2 children but we made a mistake and added 2 rooms for 2 adults. When we reached the hotel they were very helpful. That night they asked us to accommodate ourselves with one double bedroom and gave us an additional cot. After the check out hours next day they moved us to a big and beautiful sea view room. They really tried to make us very comfortable. It's such a beautiful property with great potential. Yes it needs more work and they were trying the best to manage with less staff, but I think they did an amazing job.i will stay there again for sure and want

Lovely hotel to stay and relax. We had a very big bedroom with a bed bigger than i have ever seen before. Very friendly and helpful staff. Both our breakfast and dinner in their restaurant was very tasty.
Plenty of free off road parking.
Just opposite the ferry terminal so very convenient for ferry crossings

A warm welcome and friendly staff. The building is old and is in the process of being renovated. The Scottish breakfast was served piping hot and very tasty. My room adequate. Wasn't serviced though with refreshment refills etc. Bed linen was passed its best and mattress lumpy. The hotel location was good for exploring and sits directly opposite the ferry port which can be viewed from the dining room. On the whole, it was good value. I wish the proprietor well with the upkeep and moving forward. I would stay again.
