"We decided a night away was in order as we wanted to do Christmas shopping without fuss and it's been a long time since we've had a night away. So.. Checkin was fine. We received welcome pack detailing WiFi , checkout etc Then came time to go to our room, this is where the review starts. We were situated on the bottom floor, room or So we go through two security doors and to what feels like the hotels dirty secret as this was a small corridor tucked away at the rear next to a security door that made you jump from inside your room each time someone used it. So once inside the room we are greeted to a very pleasant, clean room with one major issue. Where is the view? Oh there isn't one. Instead we open the curtains to discover a red and black brick walled courtyard of sorts. Now I know a view isn't always a guarantee but I'll get to that So we drop in our bags and leave to do the last of our shopping and enjoy the time away from kids that we have we are back at hotel, back in the room and within mins we've heard security/fire door ft from ours slam shut multiple times. So I ask at reception and they are booked out, no other rooms available. OK Next morning after a not awful but not great night's sleep we leave early. I make a point if saying to front of house staff about door and heat of hotel as it was extremely warm but that's not a big deal. Only to be told that I should have asked for a different room. I did and was told you were booked solid So we paid nearly for a night in Glasgow, we had what my wife described as a dungeon bedroom, with no view and a near by door that would have woke the dead. Would we stay in this hotel again? Sadly no. The room we stayed in should not be used for guests paying ridiculous prices or anyone really I can't describe rest of hotel as we didn't go lurking I absolutely hate leaving a negative review on these things but we were just so disappointed. Hopefully this gets to the right people and it doesn't happen to anyone else Thank you Date of stay was"

"Really really poor. The venue is lovely, but the restaurant would put me off ever using this place for a wedding. Service initially was fine, then 3 drunk ladies sat next to us which I wasn’t bothered about, it’s Xmas after all however they were asked numerous times if they wanted more drinks and if everything was okay, whereas my partner and I were not asked once for any more drinks etc seemed like they knew they’d make their money on 3 girls on the lash so didn’t bother with us. The starters were nice, the halloumi bruschetta was yummy but the Thai cake was literally one which was such poor value for money. Anyway, it came to the roasts I’m pretty sure I’d have eaten better at Toby carvery, st least the yorkshires would have been fresh. The roasts were awful, the but roast I had was not nice at all and looked like dog sick. It came in a soggy giant Yorkshire which looked like a frozen aunt Bessie’s, in fact it all looked like it had either been frozen or come in a bag, nothing fresh at all. And my partner had the pork, which is advertised with CRACKLING, but to call it that is actually laughable, when they actually bring you pulled pork and then a side of pork scratchings and say they’re crackling. I even asked the waitress about the crackling and she pointed to 5 pieces of pork scratchings on my partners plate and said that was is, I said to her they were pork scratchings but she didn’t understand. This was definitely a way to tell it wasn’t fresh as freshly cooked pork would have come with actual crackling on it. Honestly the whole thing was just awful, and to pay £15 for a roast that tastes like a microwave meal is ridiculous. We just wanted to leave, but again due to the service this took having to ask twice to be able to actually pay and leave. Such a shame as the barn/restaurant looks absolutely lovely, but I would absolutely never ever come back"

"We have been there a few times before for ice cream, they have a large choice, and very good. We loved that independant little place.We went there for a Saturday lunch with friends and kids. The lady serving was nice to the kids. We ordered a veggie chilli, a chili con carne (my favourite, which i was really looking forward to) and other dishes. 1adult arriving afterwards, sent us a text asking us to order a chili con carne. So my daughter, 14, went to see the waitress and said could i order another chili con carne. The waitress said “ok so that’s 2with meat and one without”. YesThe food arrives : 2 chicken curry which noone ordered. We said so straight away. She went back to the kitchen, and came back with the plates, saying to my daughter you did ask for 2curries. We said, no we are sure that we ordered 3chili, one veggie and 2 with meat. Another lady from the kitchen shouted, yeah i heard you say “curry”. The waitress: I can make chili con carne but it’s going to take 1/2h extra and you will to pay for curry and chili. My daughter grew up here and has no accent.It was uncomfortable and we didn’t want to wait and pay for things we never ordered. We were very accomodating and said we’ll have your curry, and to be fair it looked nice.We paid the bill in full and there was never an apology or any kind of nice words towards the confusion. We are sure to have ordered chili, we have a text message asking for a chili con carne, they may have heard curry. I think the mistake happened when the waitress made the order to the kitchen. They could have at least shared some responsability. They way they handled the situation was aggressive towards us, not taking any blame, or leaving any doubt. It’s not the best customer service. The food was good but it left us a bad taste. If they had been nicer dealing with it, we would go back, but this put us off.So i recommend you go, but write the order yourself on a paper, to avoid being served something else."
