I wasn't a guest at the hotel, I just came in for drinks and dinner. They let us take our dog in the bar, but not in the restaurant. Oysters were big and bouncy and fresh. Smoked haggis was soft and powerfully smoky. Scallops were beautifully cooked. Chips were a little uncooked and cold inside, and lacked flavour they could have got by cooking in dripping or lard or duck fat. But steak was cooked precisely, nice bite on the decent priced hanger steak (onglet) and the bone marrow gravy had big lumps of bone marrow in it. Yum! Good beers on the menu too.
