This hotel/inn is probably one of the nicest in the world and stands above all others that we visited on our 12 day road trip through Scotland and England in August 2019. From the reception to the nice and communicative bar atmosphere to the silky linen, the jacuzzi (that worked) and the extraordinary breakfast (eggs Benedict), we felt transported onto a new level of comfort.
The String of Horses Inn is a bit isolated, so future travellers should have a little juice left in their smartphones, and use the direction assistance on the Hotels.com website to find this marvellous place. Also, wifi is not at its strongest, so go sit at the bar (17th century), rather than in your room!
The String Of Horses was an amazing place to stay. A quietly located inn it has superbly appointed rooms - the bathroom was amazing and the bed large and so comfortable; a lively restaurant serving quality high food and comfortable bar with an open fireplace.
Staff are friendly and provide an amazing service from front of house and throughout the bar and restaurant.
The breakfast service is high quality too with lovely food prepared to order.
Well worth a visit and weâll be back đ
Quaint country pub with rooms. The staff are really helpful and friendly. The place is very clean and looks welcoming. However the room I had was small and basic but the bed was comfy and everything worked. Nowhere to sit comfortably or even to do some work. Food is very tasty especially the evening meals. Breakfast choice very good and again delicious food well presented. Thank you.
Due to road closure it was a challenge locating hotel, but the stay was well worth it. Hotel was quaint, clean and efficient. The food was great and the staff was wonderful. Sue was exceptional!
