Balnearn House is a lovely B&B in a small village. The rooms are comfortable and there was a nice garden area. There were a couple of nice restaurants & pubs within walking distance. The owners are very friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

Lovely little b&b with excellent location.

Lovely stay, excellent location, but just a little disappointed with shower head not being able to be set in fixed position and even having to interrupt shower having to redo the shower unit, but probably offset by lovely breakfast!

First-rate, family-run B&B, more like a small hotel with clean, well-appointed rooms and friendly owners and staff. The building has period features including wood panelling and high ceilings as well as an impressive staircase and it is tastefully and comfortably furnished throughout. We had a spotlessly clean and comfortable double room with a firm bed and shower room. There was also a large airy guest lounge bathed in natural light from a large bay window and an original fireplace. I enjoyed reading there and also guests are welcome to bring in their own drinks (glasses provided). There is a pleasant garden with plenty of seating and the protection of a large gazebo. Breakfast was definitely a highlight!
