We really enjoyed our stay. It is a lovely quiet location and ideal for the Castle Espie Wetlands Trust, just down the road. Our hosts, Terry and Avril, were super, they could not have been more friendly or helpful. Our room was very comfortable and the wonderful breakfast set us up for the day. We will happily stay there again, when we next visit the area.
