A message from our General Manager, Malcolm Hendry
I have a family of my own and have the first-hand experience of travelling with young children. There is so much you need to think about and remember!
The guest experience is always at the heart of our hotel where "No request is too large, no detail too small". I can personally ensure that you and your family are in the best of hands, and that we will do all we can to make this a memorable and special stay with us.
