"I’ve stayed here each time I’ve come to Scotland. The only hotel I’ve stayed in more than once. You’re central to just about anywhere you’d like to go in the area. The folks who work there are the best of the best. Rooms are clean, all appliances work, bathrooms are huge, big windows, a fabulous bath & water pressure to write home about. Cannot recommend highly enough!"

"We had a lovely stay at The BettyHill. What really stood out more than anything was the staff and their level of care. They were impeccably presented, had genuine smiles and warmth. Breakfast was spot on. And the views are truly some of the best in the world. Thank you."
