Really good Experience

helpful staff quiet room tasty breakfast
The staff provided helpful service. The room offered quietness despite its proximity to the bar, which I appreciated. Breakfast was tasty and well-presented. I found the location convenient for visiting local shops.
The road parking was difficult due to the residential setting. I think designated guest parking would definitely improve the experience

hot food minimal wait helpful staff ripped wallpaper basic room busy pub
The breakfast had a good choice with both hot and continental options! the hot food was cooked to order with minimal wait. you had to advise a time, so the cook knew the timings. That's efficient. the staff were all excellent, super helpful, and friendly, and the room was spacious and clean!
The room was very basic and the wallpaper was ripped! some lightbulbs weren't working. the bathroom door had holes. That needs fixing. it is basically a pub with bedrooms and it was very busy.

a sweet escape by the tay

The staff was kind, especially during breakfast service. a wide selection of beers and spirits was available at the bar, perfect after a long day. the location was special, very close to the sea walk. It was peaceful, and the views were very nice. i found the scottish breakfast particularly good. It set the tone for a happy day.
The card key stopped working. It was a minor inconvenience.
