Excellent stay for dog owners!
This is our 2nd stay at Friars carse and will most definitely stay again. We love the grounds and also that they are dog friendly. The cottage is a little tiresome and could do with some repairs/upgrades.

A diamond in the rough enjoyed every minute of our stay. The place is very elegant with a fresh water river flowing beside it with a walking path. I will definitely stay here again if I’m ever in the area.

Great hotel, most expensive fish and chips?
Very nice hotel in fantastic location, staff were great, room was great, ibreakfast was great - t would be 5 stars if not for the dinner. The table d”hote is all that was on offer - 2 course for £34, that would be fine if the food matched the price tag. Seem to be using poor quality ingredients - I had a badly cooked bit of Hancock with some poor quality frozen peas (the hand cut fries were good) - I left half of it which should maybe have indicated there was an issue - I suspect the staff are well aware of the situation as not once was I asked if I enjoyed the meal neither at dinner or checkout. Yes I could have raised it at the time but sometimes you just think, what’s the point? Other menu choices were less than appealing - macaroni cheese as vegetarian option or steak with a £15 supplement. Really I don’t mind paying for fine dining when it is that, this was not and has a long way to go.

8/10 Very good

We used this hotel as a half way point. Staff very friendly and attentive! Hotel needs renovation tbh. Web site makes it look in much better condition. Food while expensive for eve meal was delicious! We didn't get to try the Scottish Breakfast as on a Saturday it begins at 8am. We left at 7.30am. Historically interesting with Robbie Burns of fame being a local once upon a time.
