Excellent food, lovely setting for a leisurely lunch on a summers day, However service could be much more professional and efficient. Waited 40 minutes between courses, staff run of their feet and harassed and forgot the basics of smiling and being pleasant to the paying customers.

The hotel was great, the room was spacious clean and comfortable. The staff were great and the food was lovely. We will definatley come back.

A group of friends used this hotel when going to a wedding in it's sister hotel The Brig O' Doon as it was fully booked. It would have to be the most picky of person who could find fault with this hotel, on arrival the grounds are well cared for and our first impression was backed up by our welcome... More

I visited Ellisland for dinner for a family celebration. As it was the week before christmas our booking was for an early time of 5.30pm. Due to the early time we were the only diners in the restaurant, however, did not feel self conscious with the staff being attentive whilst not being over the top. The food was delicious, I... More
