With over 2 weeks in Scotland and staying in 14 different places, this was one of the best places we stayed. The bar area and lounge were very welcoming and relaxing. Dinner on site was great as well, along with service. Very clean and I would highly recommend.
Great place, rooms were very clean and comfortable. Service and food was great.

We had a lovely stay at the Abbotsford. Staff are lovely and the property is lovely too. Facilities are great. It was nice and warm and plenty of hot water in the bathroom. Earplugs and tunnocks caramel bars were a nice touch. Its good value for the price you pay. Decor is a little tired / dated so not quite a those cute boutique hotel vibes but honestly for the price its great.
