We had our stepfather's birthday there and it was wonderful. Despite David being let down by his waiting staff, he still managed to feed about 35 of us with delicious cuisine. I think those who have commented that it's Fawlty Towers just don't appreciate a laid back atmosphere. David told us about the wedding complaint - he had specifically asked... more

We stayed at Barons Craig for friends' wedding. The room was quite sufficient. The view from the room was stunning (room 24). The room was clean, the television was small, but equipped with satellite. The beds are incredibly comfortable! The was a coffee and tea maker, a great bathtub. The elegant drawing room is very inviting. It was the perfect... more

If my experience is anything to go by some of the reviews I have read on this site are somewhat harsh.I've known the hotel for many years-and returned twice this summer with very old friends-one of whom was visiting her Mother who lives nearby.On arrival the proprietor,David Mabbs-yes he is perhaps a little eccentric-could not have been more helpful-offering to... more

If only I had seen this site before we booked. Instead we relied on the very attractive website and were guided by the price which indicated a good standard of country house hotel with excellent food. The reality was somewhat different. When we arrived we were told that the room we were to have was not available as there was... more

“There are a lot of negative reviews and this was really not our experience” wrote an earlier reviewer. Perversely it may have been because of the posted negative reviews that we resolved to go ahead. Memories of the hotel and its view had remained with us ever since we’d attempted to stay 25 years ago. Then the hotel proved to... more

We stayed at this beautiful Hotel set in fantastic gardens with a breathtaking view of the bay for 3 nights, we held our Step Fathers 70th Birthday celebrations here and would like to say a special thank you to David who helped this occasion go without a hitch, for all his hard work and organisation. The Hotel was so relaxed... more

Reading the reviews of the hotel i felt i had to write one of my own. There are alot of negative reviews and this was really not our experience! When we first arrived the owners offered us a room with a four poster bed and fantastic views they took us up to the room to see if we liked it... more

Awww, this hotel seems to have a hard time with its reviewers. We had a lovely night there and the proprieter couldn't do enough to help us. He was very welcoming, friendly and entertaining and he took an interest in the guests that were staying there. He was definitely a bit hyperactive and it it was quite comical, as he... more

We stayed 1 night as part of a group of 15 couples on a classic car tour of Scotland. The whole hotle seemed to be run by one lanky guy (inevitably we nicknamed him Basil) who was trying to be bar-man, receptionist, show guests to their rooms, carry bags, take meal orders, and act as waiter! The only other staff... more
