The Hive at Poppi-Red

We were greeted by a lovely, friendly guy who gave us the code for our room and warned us about the low ceiling when exiting the bathroom. The room was lovely, cosy and spotlessly clean. I personally loved the wallpaper, and the beds were very comfortable. My partner, however, clearly wasn’t paying attention. 🤣 After using the bathroom, he came down the steps and BANG — hit his head. I reminded him we’d literally just been warned about it. You’d think that would be the end of it. It wasn’t. Throughout the evening, he proceeded to hit his head a further FOUR TIMES, bringing the grand total to FIVE. There is even a sign saying “MIND YOUR HEAD.” At this point, I have confirmed my suspicions that my partner is, in fact, a raving idiot. Unless there was a member of staff standing there holding a flashing neon sign saying “MIND YOUR HEAD, YOU ABSOLUTE PLONKER”, I genuinely believe he’d have carried on until he eventually sustained brain damage. 😂 Thankfully, it had absolutely no negative consequences for me as I’m only 5ft tall. In fact, watching it unfold provided some of the entertainment highlights of our stay. 🤣 This is absolutely NOT a negative review! Lovely hotel, beautiful decor, cosy historic town, comfy beds and some great pubs serving good food within walking distance. Highly recommend — just mind your head. And if you’re travelling with an idiot like my partner, pack a helmet. 😂❤️ Thank you for a lovely stay! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ (one for each bump)

Nice comfortable stay, very quiet and peaceful. Dog friendly accommodation and nice outside seating area. Staff very polite and helpful. We enjoyed our short stay.

A very reasonably priced room with a good choice of included breakfast. I will be recommending this place to my friends.

Perfect room for a night away with my daughter - Tarn How’s- and loved the roll top bath in bathroom. Staff were very friendly and helpful for breakfast and dinner to cater for my daughter’s lactose intolerance . Food was delicious . This is the second time I’ve stayed here and it’s still of the same high standard . Highly recommended .

The room was clean and had everything we needed
