Convenient location with small car park hidden to the side of the property. Comfortable bed, quiet and clean room, and inexpensive. As other reviewers write, the onwers are very friendly and helpful and the cooked breakfast looked very good .... after some not-too-good experiences with cooked breakfasts I played safe with just bacon and toast and feel I missed out...

Great place to stop over on the way to Scotland. We had a long journey up from the South of England and received a warm welcome. The bedrooms was spacious and comfortable and the breakfast was just what we needed to start the next day's journey.

My self and my adult son, (who has learning difficulties )spent four nights at this at excellent B&B. Our two single rooms were comfortable, we shared a toilet and shower room on the same landing, everything was spotless. Charlotte and Tony were very friendly and welcoming and breakfast choice was vast. The B & B is well placed for the... More

The central position was a bonus for getting to the rail station and restaurants. Breakfast was of... More

Echoing all of the positives others have listed. The only negative was that we were only staying one night. Charlotte and Tony were exemplary, both in replying to my emails, answering our many questions when we got there, and just generally being awesome. I hope they are soon rated #1--they deserve it!! There was a little traffic noise, but we... More

This B & B is lovely.. The owners are friendly and very helpful. The breakfast is great and yummy. The rooms are faultless. Only minus point was the shower. The spray was too fine.
