Sehr schöne und gepflegte Anlage mit einem wirklich schönen Zimmer. Leckeres Frühstück. Leider waren uns die Betten zu hart. Sehr störend fanden wir, dass die Dusche nur über eine fest montierte Brause an der Wand und keine Handbrause verfügt. Die Abgrenzung zur Toilette war ein Duschvorhang. Das, an sich tolle Waschbecken befindet sich im Schlafzimmer auf Teppichboden und nicht im Bad.

Disappointed visit

Friendly and helpful staff. Hotel could do with a facelift,paper peeling of the walls and damaged paintwork both in our room and throughout the public rooms.but the most concern was the amount of flies around our table both at the dinner and breakfast as the were a constant irritation at all meals. We booked a superior king room and were disappointed, the bedside tables was made of thin tin and clattered whenever anything was laced on it.There were not any toiletries in the bathroom as i would expect in any hotel of this price and rating. The food was well cooked and served by helpful pleasant staff.

Hidden Gem Hotel and Quality Food

What a hidden gem of a hotel! From the anticipated needs when booking to the friendly efficient staff on arrival and throughout out our stay and not forgetting the quality food served. Probably the best cooked breakfast I’ve had too! I also have to mention the spacious deluxe room that was spotlessly clean and the team who keep it that way.

Fabulous stay at Saplin Brae

We had three rooms for one night, to celebrate a family birthday, and had dinner in the restaurant. The rooms were all extremely comfortable, with everything you could need. the bathrooms were great too. Dinner was really excellent and my son who has a dairy allergy was given his own menu to choose from, this was brilliant, and an added extra that was greatly appreciated. We had drinks by the fire before dinner, and returned there afterwards. Breakfast was delicious, staff so helpful and friendly. Cannot recommend highly enough!
