Perhaps time to bring things up to date (leaving aside any question as to who would be so dim as to turn up at a public house - that's what it is - during the Christmas season, without having enquired about the children policy). It appears to have changed hands and is now Ember Inns' only establishment in Scotland. There is a family area where children are welcome if eating. There is a fair selection of interesting ales in decent condition and at reasonable prices. Food seems pretty good and moderately priced, and the wine list looks fine.
It was also clean when I visited, and staff were competent and friendly.
Overall, a welcome presence in what is otherwise a bit of a desert in terms of decent pubs.

Yeah, it's child hostile and i don't know why. It has plenty of room and it's never exactly heaving, and given the local competition is the good companions (eek) or a schelp to swanston golf club it's missing a trick i feel. No way does it make more out of child-haters than it would from families.
Still, the beer is a good selection and the food is edible, but still, they'd get a lot more of my custom if they let kids in, its my nearest pub. Maybe better for my bank balance they don't...

I was deeply disappointed in this pub. My work booked our Christmas lunch here on a friday afternoon at 12pm. One of the lunch guests drove for 45 minutes to meet us for lunch just to find out they would not let her child in. I think this is disgusting!!!! It was mid afternoon and there was about 6-10 other people in the pub at the time. We will not be going back and I will be telling others to do the same.

Charming little boozer. Prices are semi-reasonable. Comfortable atmosphere inside, ok food

Plastic and member of a chain. Local residents seem to like the erzats feel of what could be a fabulous wee pub. Child hostile. Bar staff not exctly unfriendly but certainly don't make you feel welcome.
