I expect a lot from a hotel. When a hotel calls itself a Country House Hotel, I expect it to have more than just a countryside location and a large rambling mansion. I expect it to have some character and charm. Sadly, Friars Carse does not meet those latter expectations. I admit that when I finally arrived after a horrendous... More

My husband and I stayed at this little bit of heaven for two nights (22 and 23 April 2012) as part of a weekend getaway. The hotel itself is 3 star rated, although we both felt that it was a higher standard! The setting is beautiful. We were given the Hawthorn Room which was lovely with a perfectly adequate bathroom...

We stayed for one night only and booked based on the description of riverside location. This was a good decision as it was lovely to go walking in the grounds. The hotel itself was more than worthy of its 3 stars, which I assume was partly due to lack of a swimming pool or gym. The room was a little... More

My wife and I stayed here for two nights from 29/04/12. The grounds and building are great, inside it is a little dated but comfortable. Our room was large (Maple) with a nice view, big, clean, comfortable bed with a flat screen tv which had good reception and a large clean en suite bath/shower room. Unfortunately you could hear the... More

Having been given a two day break as a Christmas present , we combined a family catchup with this break. As you approach the hotel down a windy road the view gives you a sense of what to expect, peaceful understated ,great views and wild life wandering the grounds. The rooms are good and the choice of food on the... More

Stayed here for the weekend looking for a relaxing beak and this is what we got. Friars carse is in a stunning location with a river that runs next to it where you can fish. There is plenty wildlife around the place too. The rooms are a little dated but comfortable, we could hear the people in the next room... More

My wife and I stayed for 2 nights, dinner bed & breakfast. The location is perfect, the room was looking a little tired and in need of updating but the rest of the hotel was fantastic, we had afternoon tea (and a wee dram) in the lounge sat by a roaring fire, the dinner and breakfast was excellent quality and...

We stayed for one nights dinner, bed and breakfast, the food was very nice and the bedroom comfortable. The Hotel was full mainly with guests who were attending a wedding the next day however we didn't hear any noise after retiring for the night. All the staff we dealt with were very friendly. Lovely location. Highly recomended.
