Absolutely beautiful place. Unfortunately this visit was for a funeral. However the staff was attentive and everything was great. The tiered cakes, scones and sandwiches were excellent. Will most definitely could back and have some meals here, very impressed
That is no longer a hotel marlin Court is now a care home for the elderly & this is where my dear grandmother now lives! Staff are absolutely fantastic!
Above and beyond expectations, staff so friendly and accommodating. The room was fabulous with lovely sea view. Nothing too much trouble. Breakfast could of been better but very happy to change around to suit. Will definitely stay again.
Have not been here for years. Good size room with views over to the sea. Comfortable bed. Food was great value and the staff were so helpful and cheery even helping us outwith an early cooked breakfast. Look forward to next visit
Very nice extension in the Boyd Lounge for Lite Lunches - very nice sea views - when the clouds lift! - good food, well presented by friendly helpful staff. We all enjoyed our visit. Altogether very good value for money !!
We stayed in the Ailsa Suite which was very comfortable although if we had been there longer I would probably have moved the Suite's lounge furniture around! The staff were all exceptionally friendly and helpful and the food of a very high standard all attractively served. Our three course dinner was entirely delicious - lovely steaks, and for our fine breakfast the following morning we both enjoyed the peat smoked haddock with poached eggs. The hotel itself appeared to form part of a larger complex with retirement units. I think some of the retired people were making use of the dining room. I would be happy to return there.
Food was amazing as was the decor and the wonderful and friendly staff. I came here for a birthday meal and when I telephoned to see if we could come along, it was very late in the evening and they were going to be closing the restaurant soon but they stayed open for us to have a beautiful meal and fabulous experience. Couldn't thank them enough. Would highly recommend this place.
