   Was disappointed in the starter haggis, neeps and tatties, did not taste any neeps! Otherwise the rest of the meal was fine

   Service was quite slow. Long time waiting even for the drinks. Not a big variety of food. The food was delicious though. The variety for breakfast can be more. In the morning there was no proper coffee. That is place for adults and we all know how important is the morning coffee for people. Recommendation is espresso coffee mashine to be available.

   Amazing afternoon tea. Struggled to finish it and everything tasted so good. Even the scones were warm and freshly made. Yum

   Staff were very attentive without being intrusive. Also friendly. Food was very good and full of flavour. We had the fish and chips and the ribeye steak. The steak was cooked to perfection. For dessert we had the pineapple delice with kiwi salsa and mango sorbet and the dark chocolate tart with vanilla ice cream. Again all full of flavour. Portion sizes were just right. We very much enjoyed our meal, there was a good vibe about the place and not overly busy. We will definitely be back.

   Very underwhelming choice. Catch of the day was overcooked, bland, unseasoned. Steak was good but pricey for the size. Drinks are very expensive. No atmosphere in empty dining room full of dirty tables despite being fully booked. No staff in the room. Service was pleasant but slow.

   Had meal as part of spa break. I ordered rack of lamb, but was told later that they didn't have any, very disappointed. Got fish and chipswhich was very nice. Was using the salt but none in the cellar, had to get it refilled. At breakfast next morning, also no salt in ours and the table next to us

   Hello Gerald, We appreciate you taking your time to share your experience with us. We apologies for the rack of lamb being out of stock, as this is our most popular dish and on the odd occasion we do unfortunately run out. However we are pleased to hear you enjoyed your fish and chips and we do hope we see you again soon so you can finally enjoy that long awaited Rack of lamb! :) Yours Sincerely Abigail White Restaurant Supervisor
