Our room was clean and comfortable - very charming. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Loved the quaint atmosphere - the meals in the gastropub were very tasty. The only concern we had is that the bed was a little too hard for us and the pillows too soft - but features like that are very subjective so that might not be a problem for you! The Inn is situated on a main road so can get very busy at times. Our room did overlook the road but once the window was closed and blinds drawn it was quieter. Again, didn’t bother us but something to keep in mind if you need peace & quiet. All in all a lovely place to spend a few nights and/or a lovely meal

The hotel was in a state of disrepair and need of renovation. The pictures you find on the internet must be old and don't tell the true story. The staff is is nice and friendly, though.

Clean presentable and nice welcoming staff. For info, nearest station is Eskbank and whilst route planners say 20 minutes walk that is via a public footpath that is unlit, the "long way" is nearer 40 minutes, any which way the station has a large car park.

Not the best.

I booked this property for its convenient location, thinking it would allow me to leave for work later. However, things didn't go as planned. When I went down for breakfast, I was offered a coffee and received it a few minutes later, only to be informed that there was no one available to cook breakfast. The time spent having the coffee meant I couldn't go elsewhere before work. Additionally, I accidentally paid for my evening meal and stay with my personal card. When I asked the lady to refund me so I could use my work card, she said she couldn't do it and the manager would call me the next day. Unfortunately, that call never came, leaving me without breakfast and unable to get a refund.

Nice food but rooms need updating!

Nice restaurant but rooms could do with a revamp. I was there for business & had to leave at 0630 & breakfast didn’t start till 0800 with no other option!

Disliked: Cleanliness
Late booking but wish i'd gone elsewhere. Bar etc closed from 6pm due to kitchen maintenance. My room bared NO resemblance to any of the shown photos. Bathroom - light pullcord really dirty, shower over bath controls stiff and loose from wall. Grubby, whole room needs deep clean/refurb. Extremely noisy. it's on a main road. My booked 9am breakfast poor and came late due to being told a chef had rang in sick. I had to ask for orange juice, no toast, no cereals or yoghurts or fruit unless they were hidden. Undercooked flat sausage and egg. Breakfast being late also meant limited time to get sorted before leaving. Never again.

The Sun Inn was all that we could have hoped for. Nice, comfortable rooms, friendly and accommodating staff and a wonderful breakfast (free). It had a cozy feel to it and we were sad to leave. It was definitely a five star for us.
