Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Detailed Reviews
We visited this establishment two days in a row, opting for lunch on the 2nd day. It was a very sun sunny bank holiday Monday and the beer garden became very busy. This must be due, at least in part, to the shrubbery being cut back allowing customers to see in. Great idea.
We chose a bottle of the well priced white wine at £12 and ordered lunch. I chose chilli nachos which came with chips and my wife ordered a pizza which also came with chips. Perhaps in the summer, an accompanying salad may have been a better option. Indeed, a salad offering in the menu would be a great addition. The nachos and chips were warm, big deal for us. The pizza was not as warm perhaps due to the quantum of cheese which could have impacted on the cooking as it wasn’t crispy.
That said, very good experience with our food served by very friendly staff. This place is recommended and we’ll be back though will give the pizza a miss.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room, whilst not luxury, was clean tidy with all the facilities needed. There are plenty of parking although parked in the street outside All parking in that area is free.
Very enjoyable cooked breakfast and the bonus for us was being able to take our small dog into the room at night.
I would stay again.

We stayed for two nights. Asked for a room with walk in shower as cannot climb into a bath for a shower anymore due to osteo athritis Room six is quite small with only one small chair so have to sit on the bed.
Breakfast is very good indeed with a very good selection.
Hotel is just a ten minute walk into the center of town.
We had a lovely evening meal at the. Allegria Italian restaurant.
Nardinis for ice cream.

The staff were very welcoming and helpful made you really feel at home. Breakfast was very good with plenty of choices and evening meals were excellent great value for money and large portions. Would definitely recommend the hotel to friends and family and if down that way again would book into the Woodhouse again.

A belated thank you to Lillian, Willie and all the staff for making our mothers 90th birthday afternoon tea such a success. The buffet was lovely and everyone enjoyed it.
The bedrooms are of a high standard, and we appreciated being upgraded to the fourposter bedroom.
Thanks again

It was first class, room was comforable, a large double bed probably made the room seem a bit smaller, that is not a complaint just an observation. had everything one would want. Shower nice and warm and easy to use, bed most comfortable. The whole Hotel was spotless, breakfast was "out of this world" anything you needed or wanted was there. Staff friendly and helpful, but not "in your face" which I dislike, are there if needed, there happened to be a quiz on on the Friday night which was great and for charity as well. Yea I would give this 6 out of 5.

This was a surprise, my first impressions from the outside was of its apparent age, but stepping back I saw it was in superb condition with a well appointed beer garden at the side and back.
Inside it had a very much 70s look and I thought what am in in for.? but I need not have been remotely worried. The hotel had top line security externally and internally with fully compliant fire procedures which were well signposted and easy to follow.
The double room was of a decent size with adequate storage and good tv coverage. Heating was via older wide radiators but quite effectively warm. Excellent free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel.
The owner was very helpful and was hands on throughout .I suspect the hotel has suffered the same way many others have in terms of staffing through no fault of their own .
Dinner was very limited, (it was early March) as the restaurant was not operational, but some bar meal service was available.
The breakfast however was superb with everything freshly cooked after you order and is well worth the wee bit extra if you don’t have it as part of your package.( I did). Refills of coffee and tea as you wanted and cereal and fruit juices also.
The bar at this time of year ( woodies bar) was open at night when guests numbers were high enough but if you wanted a drink outside this time, that was no problem for the hotel. The bar was cosy and had a good feel about it with very helpful staff.
They say first impressions are the most important but take a wee breath and see what is behind the decor. It was immaculate in terms of cleaning , bedding and equipment and a credit to the owner and staff.
I would happily stay again, but hope for better weather!

I just want to thank the owner for their very quick response in acknowledging an issue we had with the menu and their promise to update their website in return. I also want to reiterate that the food was good and excellent value for money, in fact I don't know how they do it for that price. I really appreciate the fact that they listened and have rectified the issue and this shows that they really care about their guests/customers, thank you.

Loved the warm welcome I received on arrival despite it being late evening. The accommodation was excellent and very clean. The bed was extremely comfortable and the lovely quiet location meant I had an excellent night's sleep. Although I was in a single room there was plenty of space in the room and it was well lit with natural light.
I was too late for dinner but my friend thoroughly enjoyed her meal and said it was delicious. Breakfast was really good too.
I could not recommend this hotel highly enough...a little gem on the west coast of Scotland!
