This use to be a warm old english pub/guest house and over the years become more known for great food, great warm people and a nice place to stay for a

I used to love this place and visited it often, but I'm not sure what's changed. The quality of the food is no longer what I remember from my previous visits. The location is still a 5 out of 5. Ver carta

What a lovely find! Needed a place to stay on our road trip to Scotland. Such a nice location, very good rooms and yummy breakfast. Would highly recommend staying here. Rooms: 5 Service: 5 Location: 5

Room booked for trip back up to Aberdeenshire. Lovely suite, aspiring French style. Huge bathroom. Dining super. Great food big portions. Big car park. Clean and welcoming. One of the nicest little places have stayed, breakfast just superb quality and quantity. Drinks service was slow but kept prompting young lady sure could have been more on ball on this only.

I met my family here on our way back south, and the restaurant is conveniently located close to the M6. We enjoyed a meal for six, and the place has a lovely country pub atmosphere. Even though it was busy, the tables were well spaced out, so it never felt overcrowded. We brought two dogs with us and were seated at a nice table in the corner without any issues. The menu was excellent; most of our group opted for a hearty Sunday roast, while I had the pasta, which was decent. The staff were fantastic, and overall, it was a nice dining experience. Ver carta

Came across this pub/restaurant as we were passing through the area. We have been visiting the Lake District for several days and this was the best meal we have had since visiting. It was so homely and the service was brilliant. Sophia was our waitress and she was so accommodating and helpful. I ordered a glass of wine which I did not quite like (my fault) and she really went out of her way to help find me something that suited my taste buds. She was so helpful and polite and I would highly recommend a visit to this pub and to top it off.. they do cherry Bakewell tart which hardly any restaurants do for dessert!

Absolutely beautiful plates and lovely flavours for our 2 daily specials. Service was reasonably quick 18:45 table and place only a third full) and was friendly. My wife was very pleased with her Feather Blade of beef, bone marrow crumble, parsnips, potato, celeriac puree and kale. Quantity was acceptable, though far from generous at £28. My choice of Stonebass was a very meaty fish and, I gather from later research, a rare one to see probably justifying the £29. The sauce was lukewarm but tasty. 7 balls of saffron potato were served hard the server said that was how they are supposed to be) and 5 small mussels, deep fried in breadcrumbs, were a nice texture change. I would have liked a lot...

Having been in the industry for years and usually refraining from reviews, I find it necessary to provide honest feedback. While the exterior seemed inviting, the experience took a downturn after a warm welcome from a gentleman. The restaurant lady's rudeness and lack of hospitality, despite ample space, were disappointing. My request for a kids roast at 6 pm on a quiet Sunday, admittedly cheeky, was met with a flat-out refusal, missing an opportunity to avoid food waste. Opting for an adult Sunday roast at £18, my wife received a portion barely distinguishable from a child's, and it arrived cold. My child's freshly microwaved meatball pasta was fine, except for the mouth burn during tasting... Ver carta
