Fantastic breakfast and cozy room, but the parking is off-site which is inconvenient.

The homemade shortbread waiting in our room was a delightful surprise! The breakfast was a true feast, with options that left us grinning. Plus, we had a cozy Double Room that added a unique twist to our stay.
The wee dram of whisky in the room felt like a waste, especially since we don’t drink. the Smart TV was a bit of a faff to operate.

This place suits me perfectly with free wi-fi, a cozy lounge area, and helpful staff. I remember how they assisted me with a car service on my first stay. Highly recommend it for a relaxing time!

We celebrated my birthday with a lovely bottle of prosecco delivered to our room. Those homemade shortbread treats were just fantastic! The sun terrace and cozy lounge were perfect spots to unwind after a day out. A tiny downside was the whiskey dram could've been larger, but overall, it was an amazing experience! 🥂

I enjoyed the beautifully restored interiors of The Auld Kirk, which retained its original charm as a former church. The wide stairs made it easy for me to navigate around, ensuring a comfortable stay.
A handrail in the shower would be helpful.

we could hear noises from the other rooms which was kinda annoying. also, the bar was closed during our stay so that was a bummer.

The Double Room at The Auld Kirk was spot on! Super comfy bed, and the decor gave it a nice cozy vibe. The ensuite had a walk-in shower that was great. Little touches like the whisky and homemade shortbread made it feel special. Plus, the room was clean and well-kept.

Lovely place to chill!
Had an awesome stay! The room was super comfy and beautifully decorated. The hosts were really welcoming and even gave us tips on local spots. Breakfast was spot on—felt like a treat! Only wish the bar had more drink options, but honest, it didn't ruin the vibe. a fantastic experience!

Perfect for travelers who appreciate quality
The breakfast was unreal, Helen served up a fried breakfast that was basically a work of art. Another highlight? The warm welcome we got, homemade shortbread waiting in our room, it.
Sure, it wasn’t exactly cheap but honestly worth every penny.
