Wow - what an unexpected surprise stumbling across The Caledonian Inn! Felt like I was in the UK with the old world charm of a country pub. The motel room was clearly just renovated with a quality fit out and little attention to details. Loved it.

This was a good and convenient lodge attached to a pub next door. Note that the reception closes by 10pm, so make sure you get in early if you're driving! The staff was also friendly and helpful with suggestions for the town.

These rooms might have been either rooms for guests or stables for horses for the guests staying at this hotel many years ago, either way they have been refurbished and are very clean and modern inside, just a little small. The amenities were the usual offerings with tea, coffee and biscuits, a toaster was also offered, I must remember to bring a few slices of bread next time. Perhaps just a small offering of some cereal would be a nice touch, it would be very little cost, but it would make such a difference to most people who don't want a big breakfast.

Our room was comfortable. It would have been good when checking in to be asked about booking for dinner. What spoilt our stay the most was the excessive noise from the hotel. The music finished at 11pm however patrons were shouting, yelling & screaming around our rooms till 1:20am!
