The Grouse room includes a whirlpool bath, something I use after long day of exploration. The food was great and always cooked when ordered for both dinner and breakfast. All staff were cheerful and helped when needed.
The river room was like a youth hostel. It felt function was more important than it looked. The bed was not comfy enough.
