Modern comfort in an old inn

We enjoyed our stay. Our room was comparatively small, aside from the king-sized bed - it's an old inn after all - but very comfortable and well equipped. We stayed there essentially because of the prospect of good food, and we certainly enjoyed our meal. The folk there were welcoming so it was a good experience, .

An interesting overnight stay

The restaurant is very high quality food for dinner. Breakfast was a bit odd in that we were just given the choice of a hot dish, whereas I prefer some fruit , nice breads and pastries etc. Room was fine for 1 night but rather small with extra to no hanging space

Fantastic food from an enthusiastic, imaginative and caring chef. Great location for touring the region. Rooms ‘bijou’ due to the type of property and it’s history but very clean and comfortable.

An excellent stay

We loved our stay at the Auldgirth Inn. We received a warm welcome at reception and all the service we received during our stay was great, nothing was too much trouble. The food was amazing, both the evening meal and breakfast. We definitely recommend it as a base for exploring the local area.

A warm welcome and excellent food.

My partner and I stayed overnight en route from North Wales to Edinburgh. The staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room was very clean and comfortable. We booked an evening meal which was exceptionally good, a bit pricey but worth it..you get what you pay for. Breakfast the next morning was excellent. Vegans and veggies beware..not much for you, but pescatarians well catered for. Highly recommended.

Comfortable stay with pleasant staff and good food. The only issue we had with room 2 was the noise coming from the water pipes which ran through a casing in the room.

A wee gem of a bespoke hotel, we loved how welcomed we felt by the staff, who couldnt do enough for us. The room was a great size and styling overall is modern and sophisticated. The winning formula for us was the Michelin standard food, great selection and open kitchen, so we could see the chefs working. The hotel, as a result had the amazing aroma of fine food. Its a go to establishment for rest and relaxation.

This inn is a jewel, and without doubt we will be returning as it gives a great, easily-found stop-over on a long journey to the north east of Scotland. Throughout our stay, we were well cared for and made to feel most welcome. The food on offer each night moved the experience into the truly outstanding category. I am rarely presented with a menu that offers so much that I might want to choose. The taster menus were lavish and varied and all dishes were interesting, very tasty and beautifully presented. Well done to you all!
