Good hotel

Lovely place, good quality. Just two points 1) signage in car park and to reception needs to be improved 2) breakfast was slow coming, and if delay was due to kitchen being busy it would have been nice to know as we felt as if forgotten

A beautiful hotel in a lovely location, adjacent to the racecourse. Staff were friendly and helpful. The Scottish Breakfast was wonderfully cooked and beautifully presented. My only ‘complaint’ (if that’s what it is!) is that the portion presented to me may have been over generous! A wonderful experience.
