The Only Pub In Scotland Without Tennents Lager
Advantages: Nice food, close to Eilean Donan
Disadvantages: NO TENNeNTS LAGER
...and I ate at the Dornie Hotel twice, the first time by choice and the second because the place we intended to go to was closed - the fact we went back indicates that it wasn't bad the first time. Dornie is a small village located on the shore of Loch Duich, in North West Scotland. The famous Eilean Donan Castle is located in Loch Duich, right beside Dornie, so I'd imagine it gets a lot of passing trade from this major attraction. Saying that, the ...
...The Dornie Hotel is the slightly smarter looking of the two pubs, but don't let that statement fool you - it's still more or less just a village pub. The lounge bar is clean and well maintained, but not very fashionable and I suspect hasn't bee modernised since the 1980s. It is decorated with photos of the local shinty team, and plenty of trophies and newspaper articles too - that kept my dad occupied for a while as he examined them. There is a public ...

BEN MORE HOUSE Recommended stay in Berwick upon Tweed
Advantages: Breakfast and Location
Disadvantages: None.
...but got two nights at Ben More House.
When we arrived, there were many NO VANCANCY signs up. It transpired it was Heritage Weekend with an OPEN DOORS policy, which meant FREE ENTRY to all places, what a bonus.
We arrived at Berwick Station bang on time (Well done CRoss Country Trains). although I had a Map printed, there is a good one outside the station.
Also checked bus times for Lindesfarne , service 477, runs Weds/Sat. Showed Dep at 12:15 ...
...to walk from station to Ben More House (only took about 15 mins), intreagued that we seemed to be also following signs for BEER & FOOD FESTIVAL this way.
Turned out that the Beer tent was only about 100 yards from Ben Mores front door.
Ben More is a 3 story Grade 2 listed Georgian Townhouse.
It has a spacious House Room on the first floor. The other two rooms are in the out building in the Garden.
A double called the Stable Room, this is the ...

Advantages: Excellent rooms, Good food, polite and helpful staff
Disadvantages: Wanted to spend more time there
...and ten mins from Bath. Brooklands Motel is found on the by pass B4245 as you enter Caldicot which meant it was not hard to find.

Well presented and clean. The garden was bright and tidy and we all met in the hotel car park. When we entered the reception the lady ...

Great house and food but not very welcoming.
Advantages: Beutiful house, good food.
Disadvantages: Grumpy staff, last check in at 9:30pm.
...rooms with high quality furnishings. The breakfast was generous and high quality.
The rooms are not very soundproof (as you would expect for such an old building) and from our bathroom we could clearly hear all the sounds from the adjacant rooms.
I booked one night's stay and advised that we would arrive between about 10pm and 10:30pm. The Strand House owner called us just after 10 and told us they closed at 9:30pm and asked what time we would ...
...them by arriving after 9:30pm and although on arrival the owner was courtious it was abvious that he wasn't happy that he was being bothered by guests at 10:30pm. This really spoiled our stay and we will not use them again. At breakfast the staff were polite but not friendly. ...
