"This is obviously a budget hotel now. The house itself was once a very grand house and it has a fascinating history for sure. The views are good and our room was basic and clean, as well as warm. The bed in our room (56) had not been put together properly though, so there was a metal ridge down the centre that was raised up too high and should have been placed lower. Our main issue though was that we heard loud voices at around 4am. Men were walking around the corridors of the hotel and talking loudly, They did not sound like residents. The hotel gives travellers a key to their bedroom door but it seems that the main entrance to the hotel is open 24/7. There is a person looking after the hotel but he does not sit at the reception. So it seemed to us that people were able to come into the hotel during the night via the main entrance and wander around. This was for us a pretty unpleasant experience and we did not feel safe. The hotel needs to ensure that the main entrance is lockable and that people feel safe. "

"Breakfast menu was very good. Dinner menu was limited but what we ordered was tasty. We were there just one night, staff very friendly. Close to the sights we wanted to see. Will stay again if in the area. "

"Not the cleanest we have seen. Looks tired. Could really use a spruce up without spending a fortune. "

"An absolutely delightful stay at Cawdor House. The room was comfortable, the continental breakfast delicious. Best coffee so far in our travels. Our hostess was incredibly friendly and made us feel very welcome. We were sorry that we did not have a longer stay"
