The Temple Hotel

This is a very good place to stop for refreshments. In 2006 it had a good variety of food on the menu at very reasonable prices. There was also several good beers on draught at prices that were good value for money. In addition, it has a huge selection of Scottish Malt Whiskies.

Last Inspection (2006 September)

The Temple Hotel was last inspected on a Sunday evening during September 2006. The menu was varied and the service good. The food was of a very high standard and the staff were pleasant and friendly. We had a slight problem with the soup but it was sorted out amicably and to our total satisfaction. There was a good range of beers and it was well kept. A local CAMRA (CAMpaign for Real Ale) group regularly meet here so we would guess that they also give the beers a seal of approval. This is definitely a venue to consider having a nominated non-drinking driver as part of the party - or else take a taxi - so that the ales and whiskies can be sampled.

It was also a bonus to find a hotel with a strict no-smoking policy throughout the hotel.

On a slight down side, the spectacular views from this hotel into the valley were not as good as they could have been as the garden areas have been allowed to grow higher than they should.
