great stay with thoughtful touches
scottish drinks clean room breakfast service
i found many thoughtful extras here. the hosts provided local scottish drinks and snacks, a very nice gesture. the room was very clean and included toiletries like toothbrush, shampoo, and conditioner. alan asked each morning what i wanted for breakfast (especially eggs!).
the street outside was busy, and there was some traffic noise at night. i recommend earplugs for light sleepers.
