I chose the city for my fiftieth based on which one had a b&b with an almost perfect trip advisor record. I was not disappointed. A very friendly Scottish owner and other good staff. The breakfasts in particular were superb - wide selection of fresh fruit, lovely sausages, smoked salmon and cream cheese bagel, filter coffee. Very nice bedroom with... More

A fantastic guest house in every way. Gareth is a superb host, friendly, reliable and nothing is too much trouble. The rooms are individually decorated, comfortable and with attention paid to little details, it makes you feel welcome, considered and comfortable from the moment you walk in the door. Breakfast is hearty and made fresh to order with a fine... More

From the welcome tea on arrival to the caramel shortcake squares laid out at night. we thoroughly enjoyed the Fraoch ("heather") experience! The host Gareth was friendly and helpful, the room was spacious and just WOW, the en suite was amazing, and the loaf of bread at breakfast is homemade.

He directed us to the best parts of the city to visit so that we would make the most of our short stay which was very helpful. Lovely little touches like a plate of chocolates... More
