The Glengower was nearly perfect in every way. I say “nearly” because total perfection is elusive. The property absolutely gleams. The decor is spot on—antique photos and maps abound. The staff is gracious and professional: Daniel and Liv, who we saw the most often, are standouts.

Open day overnight

We had an amazing overnight stay at the Glengower. The host was very kind after a very long trip and took time explain everything. The room was tidy and clean and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was fantastic and the server couldn't be more helpful. Would definitely recommend and hopefully return. The view from our room window was amazing.

I had a really lovely stay, my room was small but tastefully decorated. There were a few marks on the wall that could do with touching up. The tea tray was good quality as was the breakfast. The best thing about this hotel it the staff who were all fabulous. Be careful of the parking as its only 4 hours on the front so best park at the back if possible.
