A really lovely place to stay.

We stayed in the self catering and it was lovely. Beautifully clean. The meal in the evening was really nice and the staff were extremely professional and so friendly. They all made such a fuss of our dog!

A beautiful hidden gem!

What had a fabulous stay at Friars Carse. It is set in glorious surroundings, and the staff were helpful, friendly and welcoming. We staying in one of the cottages in the grounds and it was perfect in every way - clean, spacious, with all the furnishing in good order and of high quality. The food in the hotel was lovely, fresh, good portion size and reasonably priced. Would highly recommend and we are looking forward to a return visit!

Quiet country house hotel in lovely surroundings. A charming, old-style design that is harder to find these days. Very relaxing, peaceful stay.

The service and friendliness of the staff was absolutely phenomenal. There are some dated aspects but that is to be expected (and for some people a highlight) of staying in such a historic place.
Mikayla, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Quiet, traditional country hotel. Beautiful location, very helpful staff and a lovely stretch of river. Only thing that stopped me rating it as excellent was the slightly limited dinner menu- somewhat limited. Pay a little bit more for the deluxe rooms- well worth it.

Paula, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The building and grounds are impressive. The staff are welcoming and gracious. The dinner was good but expensive. Breakfast was fine. However, there should never be any signs of mould in a bathroom and the grit around the windows could easily be addressed.
Frances, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Peaceful, comfortable, average food

Quiet and peaceful, with a very comfortable bed. Food was average. Some very dusty corners, although the bathroom was clean. Lovely grounds.
