The perfect stop over on our way home from Elgin to Manchester! The breakfast was lovely, would only suggest maybe some music in the dining area as it was really quiet and I was worried our 4yo would be too loud!

The breakfast was 10/10 and the room was nice and quiet, facing away from the main road. Comfortable bed and very good water pressure in the shower. There's a small trail around the back of the BnB that runs up the hill where you get a beautiful view over the valley.

In theory, it was a nice place to stay, with a very friendly welcome and a great breakfast. The cleanliness was also perfectly acceptable. Unfortunately, the rooms were kind of noisy, and the bathroom fixtures were either odd or not particularly functional. What surprised me most was the price. Even though it included the (as mentioned) great breakfast, €190 is really too much for this standard. It's a shame that we live in a time where mediocre things are getting more and more expensive.
