We had a lovely room and bathroom was great. Beautiful bathroom and it was lovely and warm with great linen and towels. The tea and coffee facility were restocked daily which was a lovely touch. We had a lovely meal on our first night, although it would have been good to have been told in advance that the restaurant was closing after our first night.
This hotel wasn't what I could call "boutique". The public areas were fairly plainly decorated and not very special for what you might term "boutique". The restaurant was also sparse in decor and atmosphere though food great and lovely staff. Bring a extension lead, hardly any plugs!!

This is a gem of a hotel in a great location .The staff are super friendly and super helpful nothing was too much trouble . The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean and very comfortable. We had dinner and breakfast in the restaurant and both meals were very tasty ,good portion size and well presented .The service overall was excellent .
If I had to be picky I would say the reception and hallway to the bedrooms were a little cold đĽś. Tea and coffee making items were in the room along with biscuits again if being picky small bottles of water would have been nice.

Spacious bedroom and bathroom, I was in the loft room which was lovely. They do the little things - having selection of teabags, a decent size mug to make your drink in and also some Scrumptious biscuits to look forward to with your drink in your room. My room was lovely and clean, and the bed was so comfortable to sleep in. The shower comes with different options on the shower head which was lovely option to have. They provided me a list of taxi numbers so I could book to attend a wedding being held in area. They were kind enough to provide a lunch bag for me to take on my last day abs day and on the day of my friends wedding. They were kind enough to do breakfast Earlier for me on day I was going as they were aware I was travelling early. Breakfast was lovely, great selection and would highly recommend trying the local jam they serve there. I had a meal on the day arrived which was good. All the staff were lovely and friendly - travelling alone can be difficult and they were lovely to make me feel welcome. I have severe dyslexia and struggle with anxiety and they were lovely to help me with any information/directions etc Thanks so much again

This place was a little stunner, the decor was fantastic, the staff were amazing and helpful. Our bedroom had a beautiful big bath đ đ. The log fire in the lounge was so cosey on a cold night. The food and breakfast were excellent, our stay here was fantastic. Only here for one night and wish we had stayed longer, definitely recommend staying here, 5 stars all round for everything. Thankyou to all the staff who made us more than welcome đ
Everything was fab

We really liked our room which was comfortable, welcoming and quiet. It was warm while we were there, but we were happy to see that a fan was already provided in the room on our arrival. Our dog also enjoyed her stay, especially because there was a bag of treats waiting for her when we arrived! It was great that she was also welcome in the restaurant and that the hotel as a whole was so dog friendly. The evening meal and breakfasts that we had were lovely and we liked that local ingredients were used in many dishes. The location is also great for exploring the area both by car and on foot, and there are many amenities in the town which are easily accessed from the hotel.

The place itself was lovely. Clean, warm, lovely interior design, and felt inviting. The owners and staff went over and beyond in making sure I had everything I needed. My room was perfect. The food was just lovely. My whole experience was just wonderful and I canât think of anything that would have made it better. I canât wait to visit again.
Absolutely nothing.

Very comfortable rooms. Great restaurant. Polite and helpful staff. Lovely part of Scotland. I was in the area for a gravel bike race, and there was a secure shed for me to store my bike in.
The room was a little warm despite opening the windows. It was quite expensive the weekend I booked, but several thousand people had descended on the small town for the bike race, and I was happy to pay a premium for a comfortable room in the middle of town.

Loved the attic room. Lovely big comfy bed and bedding. Several chairs and a chaise lounge to sit on to read a book or watch tv. Fabulous bathroom with bath and loads of hot water and a big walk in shower. Free toiletries in bathroom which smelt lovely too. Great view from the room. Lovely bar area for a drink or meal.
Breakfast was ok but not as good as could of been. Plenty of choice but the hot breakfast was bit disappointing.

Although this was a very last minute, one night only booking, and we didn't get to experience the full package right down to breakfast or dinner, the hotel 150% met our expectations. Room was spacious, clean with modern, also very clean bathroom. Couldn't have asked for better. Will definitely book The Ship Inn again should we find ourselves in the area.
If anything, the room was a tad warm, but sorted that by opening windows for a while.

Comfortable room, spotless bathroom. Tea and coffee facilities in the room were great. We had a lovely stay, great location for travelling in the area. We had an evening meal and breakfast, the food was excellent and staff were extremely helpful and friendly, would definitely stay again when travelling round the area.
Nothing, it was a lovely stay.
