The whole set up was both welcoming and very professional. The Western House Hotel was the last stop on our 7-night stay and was the best of our experiences. I would highly recommend this property

A beautiful hotel in a lovely location, adjacent to the racecourse. Staff were friendly and helpful. The Scottish Breakfast was wonderfully cooked and beautifully presented. My only ‘complaint’ (if that’s what it is!) is that the portion presented to me may have been over generous! A wonderful experience.
