Wonderful B\u0026B. Comfortable, clean and inviting. Great Location!

Pros: We were so impressed by everything. The room was very comfortable and clean, it was decorated well, and the atmosphere was calm. The hotel itself was also very clean and nice. We enjoyed the lounge in the evening. The location was fantastic, close to a few restaurants and a short walk to the Glenfiddich distillery. We added an extra night, we were so happy with the location and service.

Cons: I have no complaints.

Pros: Comfortable room Lovely lady of the house Very accommodating

Cons: The male host was very stern. Made us feel uncomfortable when I was sternly spoken to for not placing my glass on the coaster. Oops! My mistake but felt belittled.

Great stay in a great location.

Pros: Steve and Joe were very friendly and generous hosts. The room was clean and comfortable, breakfast was plentiful and tasty. Location is fantastic for the whisky hospitality industry with many Speyside distilleries nearby. The nearby Indian restaurant was a great recommendation for somewhere to eat.

A delightful and comfortable stay

Pros: Jo and Steve are fabulous hosts: welcoming, helpful and a delight to chat with during the four days of our stay. Our room was spacious and full of light, beautiful to awaken in with the beautiful days we had. The street is peaceful and the property near all the restaurants in town and the co-op.
