Positive Reviews

positive:

Scenic location

Although the location is quite remote, the guests love the fact that The Old Inn is tucked away out of the reach of the urban jungle. It's in a lovely, remote, scenic area, where one can truly relax and commune with nature. Many feel it is as great base for exploring the local area and the hotel supplies packed lunches on request for people who wish to explore in earnest.

positive:

Great food

Most of the guests have found the food to be great here. The meals are well cooked with generous portions and are well presented. Food minorities such as vegetarians are also well served, which is a great advantage in such a remote area.

positive:

Nice staff

The staff in the hotel, and the locals too, have been found to be friendly, helpful and very welcoming, which is a lovely experience say guests, especially when one has been travelling for a long time.


Negative Reviews

negative:

Closed in winter

Recently some of the guests have noticed that the inn remains closed during the winter months, so there is no chance of celebrating the Hogmanay (New Year) celebrations here.

negative:

Understaffed

The staff here is friendly and helpful, but unfortunately, the hotel seems really understaffed. The staff on duty are usually extremely busy, with no time to stop and have a chat with guests. This results in a lot of small matters being overlooked, which otherwise might not be the case.

negative:

Intermittent Wi-Fi

The location is rather remote and sometimes the Wi-Fi is not very strong. This is not a huge problem for those who like to leave the world behind when on holiday, but for those who need to maintain regular contact with home or business while they are away, it could be a worry. Also, the Wi-Fi is available in the public areas rather than the rooms.
