Altguish inn was an unexpectedly nice stay that we experienced on out nc500 trip. The hotel is out of nowhere in the middle of the road with no attractions nearby. An old cute hotel. They have ample parking, and 1 slow electric charger in the carpark. The restaurant served good english breakfast. The sausages were amazing. The bar was good. The service was excellent. Now our room was also amazing with all necessary amenities. I would surely recommend the place for anyone travelling the route and needing a break.

Sadly I was a little disappointed with this hotel . The hotel itself seemed a little run down . The room was ok. Large enough but with issues. The double king bed was 2 singles pushed together which is sort of normal but not with 2 single duvet covers so my wife and I slept separately anyway so what was the point on pushing them together. Luxury double I don't think so. Double the price of a premier Inn but half the hotel. Another silly thing was the kettle is to large to fill in the sink properly. One last thing. The breakfast was below average in my opinion. Plus point is it's location on our route

This was the most expensive accommodation during our trip at £169 with no breakfast and only single beds . When we arrived the staff member was only interested in getting paid and trying to get us to book a table to eat that evening or confirm breakfast as we hadn’t breakfast included , all seeming very commercial. The shower tray drainage was blocked and the tray overflowed after a only using the shower for 45 seconds, the television only had one channel working. We handed the staff a written note to make them aware of the defects in the room and my opinion that it was overpriced.

Could be lovely but staff very unhelpful. Arrived to a freezing cold room and told that it just took time. Radiators old, didn’t heat the room and appeared to keep turning off, no control in individual rooms. Food sub standard, smallest room ever to try get breakfast with everyone pushing and shoving for space. Food left as not cooked properly
