There was a very handsome peacock who tried to get through the window! Dogs not impressed!

I had read the reviews and quite a few people it was tired and needed some TLC! It does, but it doesn’t affect the charm and calmness of the hotel. Lovely crisp bedding and a very nice sized room. Delicious dinner in the garden room served by a lovely waitress. Fab grounds to walk the dogs which they loved. Beautiful stretch of river. A lovely surprise after a long drive from Isle of Harris.

We have been before and return because the staff, the beautiful hotel and grounds, the food is wonderful. We love seeing the peacocks and usually dine in the bistro which is great.

A bit tired in places- needs freshening and outside window frames repaired. The Potting Shed Bistro could do better with lunches with just little tweeks in keeping with the hotel meal standards and unique grounds e.g. a brown bread sandwich could have lovely artisan bread and home made dressing.

History and character.

Toilet flush was not good when we arrived but resolved by the hotel. The Potting Shed menu was quite basic. Stairs were more difficult to negotiate with luggage and the doors were low - this is due to the age of the building, which does have character accordingly.

Comfortable room, good surroundings and pleasant, helpful staff. Breakfast was excellent. Potting Shed food was good.

Breakfast was the only meal we had, but both of them, were arguably the best experience in three weeks. No shortcuts: butter not in little foil packets, wonderful dark marmalade not in the little jars, best black pudding, perfect porridge, etc. Taryn and Barnaby were extremely attentive and caring and gave us wonderful service. I loved the heated floor at the shower's entrance!

I like to browse drinks lists & cocktail menus, when I’m away, maybe try something different or treat myself to a fancy cocktail, but hotel only has a wine list. I asked for a drinks list then, in the evening a cocktail list and was told, no, we only have a wine list - maybe fed up with people asking! We didn’t even know how much our drinks cost, until we checked out, as there are no prices displayed, either. I presumed the drink we had with our canapés was included, but they were on our bill! I thought bars/hotels had to display drinks prices, by law. There are also no wine or drinks menus online - I wanted to gauge prices & see if they offered cocktails - prices are obviously a closely, guarded, secret!

Lovely grounds, right on the banks of the river Teith. The potting shed bistro, will be lovely in summer, it was pouring! Property was a Roman camp (under the river) & a 16th century shooting lodge, it’s styled as such. Dinner & breakfast we’re very good. Carpets & some furniture were a bit tired, but the upkeep of such an ancient hotel & vast grounds/gardens must be huge.

All just perfect

Some of our group had Full Breakfast very tasty others only had room for Continental after delicious dinner previous night. Bedrooms very comfortable. Excellent location for our group meeting up.

The Potting Shed meal wasn't up to the standards of the restaurant but then it's not as expensive.

We were upgraded as the hotel restaurant was closed the first night so we had a large room. Breakfast was as good as ever and we had an excellent meal on the second night.

my room is the smallest of the house !!!! too small! ask for a big one !

a topical Scottish country house with ancient forniture and country atmosphere. the living rooms with English tapestries and the fireplace and the windows overlooking the river make this place a very welcoming and familiar but elegant place at the same time.I suggest to stay here and I’ll surely be back in a bigger room :)
