The staff was very friendly. Our room had lots of space. We enjoyed spending time in the drawing room and sitting outside. We explored the beach across the street and found sea loch anemone on the rocks. We liked being able to have breakfast and dinner at the hotel dining room.

The images online did not match the room that we stayed in, the room was very outdated and in need of a refurbishment. Other than that the staff were all very helpful and attentive during our stay.
