This is our 3rd stay at this property and were delighted to get a an upgraded room - it was big with a large couch and coffee table in addition to a double bed. It looked as if it had been recently upgraded. It had a great view of the hills and the car park was close to the main door. On the down side the room was directly above the bar which was very lively and there did not appear to be any sound proofing, however the noise stopped soon after 11pm. The bathroom was big with an over bath shower which had adequate but not great water pressure, it took a wee while to get the water to the correct temperature. There were multiple internet repeater stations in the corridor leading to the bedrooms with one just outside our bedroom door, however we were unable to connect to the guest wifi. The repeater outside our door was occasionally blue but mostly orange, the others in the corridor were blue. We did report this to reception but he just said we should be able to connect, however we couldn't. On previous visits we had booked breakfast and it was very good, this time when we asked about breakfast it was going to be ÂŁ17.50 per head which we were not prepared to pay.
Das Personal ist sehr nett und auch das FrĂŒhstĂŒck war sehr gut. Wir hatten ein modern eingerichtetes Zimmer. Einzig allein der Blick fĂŒr Details hat uns ein wenig gefehlt. So hatte ich angemeldet das ich glutenfreies Brot zum FrĂŒhstĂŒck benötige - es gab leider keins. Am FrĂŒhstĂŒckstisch hatte ich eine sehr dreckige Tasse eingedeckt. Das Badezimmer war an ein paar Stellen nicht so sauber - Flecken auf den Fliesen, schimmelige Fugen. Zu allem UnglĂŒck ging auch unsere Dusche nicht - da gab es Probleme mit dem Wasser. Das Personal hat sehr freundlich reagiert auf unsere Anmerkungen, aber sowas sollte nicht passieren in einer ruhigen Zeit.
Lovely place, very clean and comfortable rooms. We had a a bit of an issue at check in, we had booked a family room which turned out to be a double bed and a trundle bed which they brought up. The trundle bed was not fit for purpose really, it didn't look safe to sleep on. Couldn't fault the staff or the manager though, they were very helpful and made sure to try and resolve the issue for us straight away.
The bar and restaurant area of the hotel is lovely, it was really cosy and relaxing. We had dinner in the restarant both nights we stayed and all the meals were were great, couldnt fault any of it.
Would recommend this hotel but just be wary if you are booking a family room as it is not actually family room that you are getting.
Suite was tasteful but a little worn - in bathroom in particular. The shower took easily 10 mins to heat up. Was on the brink of giving up when it began to heat up. Didn't like having an overloaded extension in the room.
The young guys working in the dining room were terrific -friendly, polite and professional. Ross handled an issue with our booking immediately. Food was very good. I would return.
Lovely old Inn. Fabulous food, amazing staff - so warm and friendly and helpful. As it is a very old Inn it does not have the best soundproofing but it was quiet from 11-7. Also recommend that people be able to add tips on the machine as us foreigners don't often have cash on hand. Felt terrible not being able to tip staff for their awesome service! Matt the manager is a gem!
What a great find. The downstairs of the hotel has been upgraded and was cost, tasteful, excellent service from friendly staff. We had the 6 course tasting menu for dinner which surpassed all expectations. The restaurant for Sara by Sanjay was beautifully decorated and each course was sublime. Service was exceptional and overall atmosphere really lovely. Hotel in process of upgrading bedrooms and will all be lovely when complete. We will be back - brilliant stay and would definitely recommend.
Kirkhouse Inn was a great place to stay. Certainly an inn built in the 1600âs will have its quirks, as the Kirkhouse did, but it was quiet, comfortable, and very cute. The two restaurants downstairs are fabulous as well. Definitely would stay again.
A quaint inn with an excellent restaurant. But, what really made the stay pleasant was the staff who are friendly and who made this a great place to stay
Staff all friendly and helpful but the room while clean was very tired. Also no WIFI I asked if they had any. Was told it was patchy but would give it a go! Nothing.
