Enjoy in Clackmannanshire

Always food you can't find anywhere else nearby

Siamo stati a pranzo al Bar Aldo's dove abbiamo trovato un servizio ottimo cosi come il cibo e il vino. Consiglio vivamente questo ristorante

Really had a good time staff really looked after us. The food was very tasty, presented and good portions. Lucky we only live 30 mins away , recommend Well we are back again staff were great and the food as always well presented and seasoned to make a tasty Lunch. Luckily we have friends who live near by and love going here all the time. Again we recommend.

Great wee hidden gem in the county. Stunning views out the picture windows and food terrific. Shame it has gone, hopefully not for good

Our party booked our Christmas party here, first time doing so. The hotel was nearly full, so we opted for the pods in the grounds. If you are in the pods, there is parking to the rear of the hotel. The pods are really close to the hotel and although they are in the trees, there are tarmac paths between the pods and hotel. There are steps up to the pod level. The pods themselves were large with a double bed, shower and toilet to the rear, a sink and fridge in the middle with a seating area and TV to the front. I'm 6'4" tall and found it easy to live here. There was plenty of head room, the bed was long enough and it had a large shower. It did say there was underfloor heating but we found the radiator was hot enough. In fact, I had to open the door halfway through the night to let some cool air in and this was in December. They are really nice pods, ours only spoiled by stains on the seating and the flooring coming apart. There were no cooking facilities, but it did have a kettle with tea and coffee. There are no cupboards and a lack of hooks to hang up clothing (2 behind the door to the right and a curtain rail without a curtain above the bed but bring your own coat hangers). I would hope the hotel would grit the tarmac in the winter as it was a bit slippy in the wet, especially with kilt shoes on. The hotel itself was beautiful, really nicely set out. There is a great wee seating area opposite the reception with a roaring log fire but this area does get busy. The Christmas party started with canopies and drinks, then we were taken to our tables. We sat 10 at our round table comfortably. The meal was your standard Christmas meal, 3 courses. This tasted good, no complaints. Then the band started, it was an ok band singing all the standard party songs but it was kind of let down when they left for a break and put on some horrible tracks, even a tape of Christmas classics would of been better. No one danced for about half an hour. The price of the drinks in this hotel was surprisingly good value, over half the price of other establishments we have had Christmas parties in (Crieff Hydro, Athol Palace, Pitlochry for example) On our return to the pods at night, apart from the music from the end of the party, it was relatively quiet. Breakfast wasn't included in the price of the party so we opted to buy it at £15 a head. I think as there are no cooking facilities in the pods, maybe breakfast should be included in the price of the party night. The breakfast was self-service with plenty of hot and cold food. We had to ask for baked beans. Can I just end with a massive thank you to all the staff, their hard work throughout the night made it a very pleasing event. They are a credit to the Hotel, can the manager please pass this on to them. Our party of 10 people would certainly book again.
