"Was a lovely clean hotel, that we booked as it is dog friendly. the room was small which would have been ok if it had just been the two of us but it left little room for our dog to sleep on the floor, wherever it would lay down would be where we would need to walk to get to en-suite. Have booked for our return journey from the highlands and asked if there was a slightly bigger room - was informed the room would provide a little more space."
