⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful stay at Lower Balwill B&B! Marion and her mum were incredibly warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The breakfast was absolutely delicious, with great attention to detail. The rooms were spotless, comfortable, and everything was perfect. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend Lower Balwill B&B to anyone visiting the area. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality!

Wonderful Home from Home

10.0

This is a family run business - originally run by mother, now by daughter. Both hosts were so friendly, helpful and could not do enough to please. We took out dog which was welcomed. The breakfast was amazing - a Scottish breakfast. We ate so much. Bed was comfy and room clean. We required a relaxing, getaway after a very stressful few months. It is unspoiled and rural and ticked all the boxes we needed. We will be returning fairly soon - a real home from home!!

Surroundings and very pleasant and welcoming hosts.

eine der schönsten und sympatischsten Unterkünfte in 14 Jahren Schottlandreisen.

10.0

Das Frühstück war der Hammer. Der Service und das Ambiente suchen seinesgleichen. Das Haus ist in sehr ruhiger Lage , aber genau das haben wir auch gesucht. Wir wurden sehr herzlich begrüsst und haben uns mmer umsorgt gefühlt.Die Aussicht war toll.

es gibt nichts zu bemängeln

Der bestmögliche Aufenthalt in Schottland!

10.0

Frühstück hat alle Erwartungen übertroffen. Zimmer geräumig, liebevoll eingerichtet, sehr sauber. Vermieterin hätte sogar für uns gekocht wenn wir dies gewollt hätten - ausserordentlicher Service, Freundlichkeit über die Maßen. Beste Unterkunft während unseres gesamten Schottlandaufenthalts - hätten wir dies vorher gewusst hätten wir mehr Nächte gebucht. Einfach nur Top, top, top over the top!

Gibt nichts was mangelhaft gewesen wäre

Prachtige locatie en zeer behulpzame gastvrouw.

8.0

Vriendelijkheid van de gastvrouw. Originele ontbijtlocatie in het kleine zomerhuisje in de tuin.

Kamer bevindt zich IN de woning van de eigenaars. Je moet door de gang naar de badkamer. KLeine living voor de gasten maar niet echt aangename plek. Er hangt een onaangename, muffe geur in de woning.
