Moldy bread and no restaurant

Restaurant not open on either night of my stay, had to find somewhere in town, got soaked returning to hotel on one occasion. Served a moldy piece of toast a breakfast, it was horrific. It was virtually all over the bread, so how someone could not see it was beyond me. The lady serving apologised but it was disgusting.

The property is nice but the breakfast is really disappointing but edible. The property has a restaurant on property called The Orangery which is advertised as a premier Fine dining restaurant and serves lunch and dinner. Unfortunately the breakfast apparently is not a part of the fine dining experience. otherwise it’s a lovely place in a good location with a great staff!

Owner is very attentive. I arrived early and was welcome and showed to my room. It is very conveniently located to Stirling castle,downtown, shopping and dining. They have an excellent restaurant, unfortunately was closed during my stay. I was traveling by myself and I feel very safe during my stay. Breakfast had an excellent variety. I ordered the Scottish breakfast,was cooked to perfection. Highly recommend this cute B&B.

This is an old house showing its age. Staff are young but haughty making for an overall negative experience. Restaurant is pretentious with average food

There was not a proper check in here. The owner had the kitchen staff checking people in. We asked for a ground floor and they put us in the basement, Carpet was dirty and room smelled very musty and like wet dog. Very disappointed.
