The room was spacious and comfortable. The room was piping hot, but the radiators could be turned down. Opening the window was a great option too. That provided fresh air.

decent stay near pitlochry

spacious roomcomfy bedsgood table
the size of the room WAS huge. It was very spacious and well put together with a table and chairs to sit at. I found the two twin beds super comfy.
i think in terms of value for money, it fell well short of all other places we have stayed. Pillows smelled musty.
