The property was full of character, lovely helpful staff and quiet throughout the night , the breakfast was exceptional. Unfortunately when we went to our room it smelled of dogs which was awful. This was rectified quickly and another room was offered. The reception staff were very accommodating and helpful about this matter .

Relaxing weekend in Aberdeenshire
A warm greeting from reception on arrival, we had booked a pet friendly room which had a surcharge, the room was the furthest from reception but had access to a fire door into the garden which was a plus, the bedroom however needed investment - wall paper peeling off and paintwork with marks all over, the bathroom wasn't clean, iron and ironing board didn't work. The service from the staff all over the hotel was welcoming, in the restaurant on Friday night we enjoyed our food with the exception of the smoked tofu and beetroot salad, the tofu wasn't smoked and the dressing was very oily - shame as it sounded so nice. Buffet breakfast was nice with the exception of coffee and sausages. The grounds are wonderful we enjoyed a lovely sunset on Friday night.

Hotel is lovely staff where friendly.. rooms are great.. the only downside hence the 4 stars was it wasn’t the cleanest., but that to me is housekeeping not been the best.. I worked in hospitality for many years and know it isn’t easy to get decent staff.. but don’t let that put you off.! Pity they weren’t nearer as I run a cleaning company and would be sending a team over asap to sort out the cleaning.. will be back when we are next up that way

Shame about the restaurant quality
Lovely property within lovely grounds, close to the city yet you have the feeling of being out in the countryside. Room was great, nice size, clean & with a lovely bathroom. Unfortunately for us the food let down our visit. Visited Blair’s restaurant and unfortunately the food was a huge disappointment which is a shame as the hotel is so nice & in great surroundings. It was a special occasion and we ordered steaks which to be honest were not great at all. Paid £48 for a fillet steak cooked medium rare and was served a well done steak, not even 100% sure it was a fillet. It was literally pub grub and something you’d expect to be served in weatherspoons. It’s a shame as otherwise the stay was great, but would not return due to the dining.
Medium rare “fillet steak”
Ribeye steak just like pub grub

Overnight stay 10/08/2024
Lovely hotel in fantastic setting, with great leisure facilities and good food. Food in restaurant was superb and good sized portions. Whilst the hotel is dog friendly the rooms for dogs are at the very far end of the hotel - the longest walk possible!!! And at £20 was a little expensive compared to most others we have stayed in. Our room looked out onto a wall about 1m away so not ideal and was right beside a pump room where pumps switched on/off frequently. Would go back but probably not with our chihuahua next time.

Liked the quiet property. The staff member at the breakfast area needs to be trained on how to address people. Not welcoming, did not explain the options, barely spoke. Needs customer service training. Food was really well presented and lots of options. Rooms were not as clean as can be, needed a good clean and vacuum. The Merry Christmas card was an interesting touch in August.

Weekend stay
The receptionist on arrival did not have any authority so any enquirers took an age to sort. She could not offer me an upgrade. Waited nearly 1 hour having explained that I had just driven 12 hours needed to rest so went to the room therefore stayed in the room they had given. The room was tired and needing an touch of TLC as did the hotel in general. The staff did their best however it seemed that weekend staff had the short straw. There was wedding on Saturday and something else on the Sunday, I felt I was last in the queue when wanting anything.

Good location not so clean
Even though I had an animal with me I do understand some people are allergic to animals and don’t understand why all rooms for animals are at the furthest away point in the hotel meaning you have to track all the way through the hotel with your pet. The rooms were not the cleanest the bathroom needed a good scrub down and the carpet a really good hoover and when windows were opened all the spider webs were unbelievable
