Although somewhat out of town, it is well worth the drive. An excellent B and B, with wonderful co owners who go WAY out if their way for each visitor. They made some dinner reservations for me, despite warning us several times about restaurants booking up. Very very helpfull, and even greeted me with my first name. I will go back there. Definitely the best place that I stayed in during my 14 day Scotland trip!
