Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Swimming pool was freezing, jacuzzi wasn’t in use and food was terrible for a fussy eater. Didn’t effect our stay as we enjoyed lovely walks around the grounds and some quiet time away. Rooms are terribly outdated and basic tv which had interference on most channels.

Really friendly hotel, especially waiting/bar staff. Good choice of food, plenty for vegetarians, lots of activities around the hotel such as snooker/table tennis at no extra cost. The rooms are old fashioned in style but it suits the rest of the hotel. Would stay again.

Country House Hotel
This hotel was very welcoming, the staff remembered my name, the rooms were a good size and the meals offered a decent selection. It all felt like what you expect from a trip to the countryside.

A great place for families tobstay
We had a fantastic time at the hotel. The leisure suite is great and the staff are very helpful. The family rooms are large and well-appointed. The hotel is in need of some sprucing up in places, but that did not detract from our stay at all. A lovely breakfast (although please don’t let the meat touch the cheese!) with friendly staff all over the hotel.

very friendly staff and enjoyed our stay. Disappointed about menus, altough food very tasty. Sample menu had lamb rump, duck and beef cheek ,these were not included during our stay. Would have prefered to serve own coffee and toast as available when wanted. Waiting staff ,although very busy were pleasant and friendly.

Wonderful few days in a hidden-away gem of a hotel
Absolutely fantastic. Great service from friendly staff and a very comfortable couple of night's experience. The food served from a comprehensive choice of dishes was top-drawer and the bar had a good range of drinks and spirits. Only slight issue would be the fact that the hotel is not easy to find - even with a google map and route planner - as there are no signs for it, even from Gatehouse of Fleet, and is extremely well hidden down Cally Avenue which is a wooded avenue heading into the substantial forest estate. We didn't even see a sign for the golf course.
