A large family bathroom next door to the double room offers a generous bath, modern shower, plenty of towels and complimentary toiletries. A second private shower room is also available so that all our guests can enjoy private facilities.
McMurdoston is fully centrally heated and has numerous open fires and log-burners, but we’re aware some guests like full control of their climate Text taken from bandbstays.co.uk – for you chillier mortals, both rooms provide controllable radiators, hot water bottles and copious spare bedding, ensuring complete comfort, without the embarrassment of having to ask.
Breakfast is served between 7 and 9 a.m. starting with cereal and fresh fruit.

You’ll eat in our atmospheric dining room or the light flooded hall, from which you’ll enjoy stunning views and which provides an ideal opportunity for bird watchers.
