An overnighter en route from Scotland

Great little village close yo the A1 - perfect for an overnight stop from Scotland. Very friendly staff at check in who showed us to our room which was small and dated Evening meal was delicious but there was a limited choice of drinks- no cider and only one white wine. Breakfast was included which is good but no marmalade or fruit and limited choice. It was tasty though. Preston Mill is situated within easy walking distance and served as a great after breakfast visit.

Staff were all lovely! Locals also very nice, real friendly village feel in the bar. Food was good and lovely little garden to sit out the back and escape the heat! Rooms were basic but did the job for our one night stay. Saw some photos online before going that worried us but room and bathroom and all public spaces very clean so don’t be put off!

Short stay

Overnight stay with evening meal and breakfast. Meals were good and plentiful. Booked family room for two adults which had a bit more space. What made the hotel was the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. Only downside was there was only on street parking.

Our room, number 3, was on the front of the building, opposite a very busy train track, which resulted in disturbed sleep. Trains ran throughout the night. The window was an old sash window with single glazing, which we had to pad out to stop from rattling. The room was very small, with no room for a bedside table and barely any room to get into the bed, which also wasn't the most comfortable. Breakfast and the lady serving it, was the best part of the stay.

We really, really wanted to like this place and in the end we didn’t. It has a lot of potential and hopefully the family running this place can get it sorted. The staff was friendly but we went into Edinburgh for the evening and had trouble getting in to the hotel when we got back late. We had told them we would be coming back late so we were surprised at the trouble, I wish they had just given us a night key. The room we had was at the top of the building and somehow collected all of the cooking smells from the evening. The mattress was past its prime and uncomfortable. There was something wrong with the water pressure so showering was challenging. Dinner was good and was a good value. Breakfast on the other hand was nothing short of amazing.
The room we had was cute and cozy. That bed needs a new mattress.
Fresh caught local fish special of the day on a risotto.
Easy access to a bus that runs straight into Edinburgh.

Loved the town and area. People very hospitable. Cute hotel and very reasonable but the room was so small the bed hit the door. If you don’t mind extra tight quarters then go for it.

Service from staff and the room were excellent. Food was fantastic, as was the friendly atmosphere in the bar from both staff and locals. Only downside was the showers in both our rooms, from very poor to almost inoperable. Hoping these are shortly to be replaced.
