Lovely big room, was nice & warm & very clean. Shower was ok, would have preferred it to be more powerful. Bed comfortable. Stunning views out of the front of hotel to River Dee. Hotel was lovely, several different areas to eat & drink & liked the coal fires. Meals were really nice, service at the evening meals not so good though. Otherwise staff were very friendly & helpful. Would stay here again as great location.
What an amazing place to stay, beautiful surroundings, great staff and service.

What a lovely place to stay! From the roaring fire in the restaurant and bar , to the very friendly staff , Keira , Dee and Kyle to name a few. The style of the hotel was very much to our liking , room was very clean and spacious with a great view of the river. The bath was great and nice a warm shower. We enjoyed the 1st day so much we decided to extend our trip and stay for a further night. Thanks once again to all the staff , we will definitely be back . Andy B
Brilliant service, friendly staff, clean, well stocked room, bed wasn’t the comfiest for me but that’s a personal choice. As to be expected with a period property there are quirks, lots of creaky floorboards in our room but nt a lot could be done about this. Overall - fantastic!
We loved the beautiful setting and the extraordinarily friendly and helpful staff.
The hotel is charming and quirky. We loved every minute of our stay.
Great hotel by the banks of the river Dee. Beautiful views of woodland and river, with lovely riverside walk. Hotel v comfortable but maintains historical features.
Great stay in a lovely room. We booked a private dinining dinner and unfortunately the service wasn't great - they seemed understaffed. The food was good. Room was great, beautiful setting with river frontage and otherwise lovely stay
Helpful staff, large room, beautiful riverside location within walking distance of town centre. Comfortable bed (although the duvet was too warm - I find this in every hotel I stay in!).
Great hotel lovely location, staff extremely helpful only slight comment would be room description which said king size room with balcony when balcony was in fact a shared terrace
Had a great overnight stay with my partner and dog. Room was perfect with lots of lovely furnishings. Would have liked to have been given information on recycling as we took all of ours with us.
Welcomed with a cosy, traditional style room, tartan throws, stag lamps small fireplace - lovely surroundings - breakfast room airy with outward views - breakfast was plentiful and delicious. Staff very friendly and excellent price for the stay and breakfast. Thank you 👌
