Great room and the food was really great. We ended up having dinner a couple of times on top of having breakfast in the morning. The staff were friendly and helpful. We loved our visit to this town and would stay at McKay's again.

Really good stay, lovely hotel.
Lovely hotel, bar and restaurant, staff are friendly and welcoming, also helpful. Everything was great about our stay - if only one thing to critique - the bands could be better that play in the bar, they don’t draw a crowd as other bands that play in the local bars do. It’s a shame as a Saturday night you’d expect a full bar, however the other bars were full where great bands were playing.
