    Absolutely perfect. Will definitely be coming back. Positioning of the location is second to none considering I came here to play golf you are literally on the door step to many courses so no wasting time travelling & added bonus its got its own driving range. The food & drink is all reasonably priced & the decor is lovely & beautiful gardens & water features.

    What an absolute gem of a hotel. All staff were fantastic very accommodating and helpful. Very spacious room tastefully decorated and the views of Arran and the coastline are stunning. Afternoon tea and breakfast were of a high standard and delicious. We will definitely be back and have no hesitation in recommending to family and friends. Thanks everyone for a great stay!!
