  • What a horrid flash site they seem to be using.

    got a room at £1 for the 15th

    However it took me 3 attempts as the site does not reserve the date you selected till you have filled in all you details, this is horrid as on any other reservation site or online shop they will reserve the room you select for a limited amount of time so you can fill in all you details so you still get the item or room you wanted.

    has any one else found this or is it just me

    For anyone who watched, out of interest, this hotel was featured in The Apprentice this series. It was one of the places that one of the teams successfully sold their unusual flavours of ice cream. Of course this took place late last year as they are always filmed early, but it might be worth looking in the restaurant to see if they have chilli/chocolate orange/avocado/elderflower ice cream on the menu!

    Roll on September x

    I realise that Scotland generally gets a pretty shoddy share of summer weather but please don't wish it over! :eek:

    to whoever asked about changing the double bed to a twin room just email them, they were really accomodating for me when we did it the last 2 times. :) No hassle just a friendly email back saying that would be fine.

    Got a £29 room for a Saturday night in September for my friend's wedding - thanks very much for the html links people. I didn't try for a £1 one, so wondering if I should have done but lots of people didn't get either so I think it was the right decision as I wasn't flexible about dates :money:

  • I was luckier enough to get a £1 room. My reservation e-mail came through to my spam box - so keep your eyes peeled.
