The Townhouse is a fantastic well run hotel with a friendly team who were very welcoming. We had a comfortable tastefully decorated room with a kettle, tea, biscuits, bottled water and a fan heater if we needed additional warmth. The bathroom was compact with small shower gel/shampoo bottles along with lovely soft hand and bath towels. The choice for breakfast was extensive with fruit salad, porridge, a full Scottish and choice of eggs being offered along with tea/coffee and fruit juices! What we had was delicious. We would love to stay here again.

Lovely hotel. Modern and lovely decor. Room was spacious and comfortable. Breakfast was well served and staff friendly and attentive. Parking outside hotel could be an issue if you don’t arrive early but we managed to park down the street and it wasn’t a problem. Would recommend this hotel
