"The Thistle Inn was the perfect stop for the night. We were greeted by the owner and the room was cool and quiet. Exactly what we needed after a long drive.
Breakfast was cooked to order and delicious. Michelle is very pleasant and enjoyed talking about the area with great recommendations for other places to visit."
"The hotel itself is lovely. Sadly the dining room and bar are closed but the hotel side is open for business! Clean rooms, comfy bed and delightful host. Breakfast was cooked fresh to order and was perfectly done. Really lovely place to stay to take in the surrounding villages and towns. Peaceful village with cafes "
"We stayed in a family room, which was quite spacious and nice. The host was excellent and helpful about things to do in the area and the hotel restaurant was fabulous!"

Beautiful house on private estate with hot tub, nature and adventure.
10/10 Excellent
"Fantastic stay with very welcoming hosts. The house is lovely and very spacious even with 10 staying. Gavin was extremely helpful and friendly. We'll be back!"
"Loved our huge Van Gogh decorated bedroom and great en-suite. Lovely and light with huge window.
Breakfast, great range of choices. You couldn't leave hungry.
Downside was that we were unable to use the TV because of the Sky set-up. Only catered for two users at any one time. However, we weren't there to watch TV.
Hosts, Mandy and Dan were very accommodating and welcoming, as were their three dogs.
Would definitely recommend."
