The Burn How Garden House Hotel

8/10 Good
"The hotel offers an excellent location. 2 minutes and you are at the centre and lake, where an abundance of shops. pubs and restaurants can be found. We stayed for 2 nights in a superior room. It was very spacious with a king size bed. It was definitely worth the bit extra we paid for it. Breakfast was served in the main hotel and we couldn't fault it. The staff were very helpful and pleasant. I would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel."
