Loved the cosiness of the hotel and view over the loch with the lovely highland cattle and goats in the field in front. Weather was freezing as it was a cold snap but it was still beautiful and room was lovely and warm. Food was delicious and service from the friendly staff was excellent. Fabulous breakfast to set us up for days out. Would return in a heartbeat.
Nothing really. Only slight gripe would be the shower pressure in our room (room 6) which wasn't great and only reason I've not awarded a 10. However not so much of a problem that it spoiled our stay. Just a little niggle.

The view is what is amazing about this hotel and the grounds have several friendly highland cows which were a big treat for us. The staff team are also super communicative and responsive - you can tell they really want to make your stay a good one. We ordered off the menu for breakfast and it was lovely; we noticed others were making up their own orders based off of what was available on the menu. It seemed so luxurious that the staff just accommodated those special orders and that there was a cook to make these breakfasts to order. I also appreciated that it wasn't a breakfast buffet. The quality seemed to be better and I liked that there was no food waste due to buffet items sitting out.
Not much to not like. We stayed in the motel like part, outside of the main house. The inside was no frills, not super modern or updated, but for us, that's not important. We just really appreciated the view, that there was hot water in the shower and enjoyed the hot cocoa with marshmallow on the balcony watching the fog roll in. We also ate dinner at the hotel, which was definitely thoughtfully made which we really appreciated. The only thing though was all our dishes were too salty for our taste, but we understand seasoning can be difficult to gauge especially with everyone preferring different amounts of seasoning.

The location was absolutely fantastic, despite the wet Scottish weather the view was no less spectacular. This was my 7 month old puppy’s first time at a hotel and the room was great. A towel, bowl and some treats were provided for her. I can’t praise the restaurant staff enough, they were so helpful and allowed us to sit further away as it was her first time in a restaurant. The barman whose name I didn’t catch but mentioned he was South African offered us water for her and the manager ensured she had enough space to get on with her training. It was a really smooth process thanks to the team! The food was also 10/10 and the room was spotless. I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Thank you.

The location is great, huge picture windows capture the large panoramic view of water and mountains. After the long drive to get there it was fabulous to walk around ‘the garden’ which turned out to be a nice easy hike through beautiful landscaping with plenty of photo opportunities and a beautiful lookout spot with benches to relax and enjoy the view. Our room was comfortable and had a deck you could access through a large glass door so that you could stay inside and enjoy the view, or sit on the chairs outside and feel the expanse of nature. The restaurant is fantastic. The portions may be a bit small but the food was beyond expectations. I see why people return over and over.

This place is stunning! Food, staff, location were all fabulous. We got our breakfast and dinner included in the price which was a steal. I can imagine the cost racking up if you're on pay as you go. Little touches, like hot chocolate, tea cakes and bottled water in the room were great. The room was very spacious even with a pop up bed for our daughter and we loved chilling on the balcony with a view of the sea. Short walk down to a secluded beach which my 4 year old loved. The staff were so lovely with our little one which makes the stay so much more enjoyable.
Honestly, nothing. We will be back!

The views from the rooms were stunning, a gorgeous view of the Loch. The staff were friendly, and there were highland cows just down from the hotel that you could say hello to. The rooms were nicely designed, and equipped with almost everything you could need. The breakfasts were also delicious - well worth getting up for!
The beds weren’t the most comfortable, as the double is made up of two twin size beds I could feel the line where they were joined in the middle. We didn’t opt for dinner as it was really expensive, but with the hotel being where it is, I was not surprised at the prices. It would have been nice to have a different option for coffee in the room - as I really don’t like instant coffee, even the coffee bags you can get with ground coffee would have been better.

Great hotel in fantastic location, superb food, helpful staff, good size room, pet friendly
We stayed in the extension to the original building, which was ideal with our two small dogs, the decor is now slightly dated as is the bathroom fittings/ tiling. The external veranda woodwork is showing signs of needing a re-decoration. The mattress also could most likely do with replacing. These are intended as minor comments to provide feedback to help the business improve the customer experience. If these items were attended to this would be a superb hotel in all aspects and we will certainly be back.

Went as was the wedding of two friends and it was incredible. All the staff were amazing, so helpful. Compliments to the chefs as the food was so good. Credit to Sarah who helped us a lot, especially with a little fun thing we had planned and helped us salvage it. Also to the lady on reception, sadly didn't catch their name but got us our little Dougle cow and charm from the gift shop before we left.
The shower was a little weak when using it but hardly much of an issue on an amazing stay

This hotel is in the most beautiful location, we stayed in one of the rooms in the annex and the view was stunning. Great service from the staff and the evening food was top notch. Lovely comfy beds and just the right thickness of duvet.
The rooms are a little dated and old fashioned and the furniture and paintwork could do with a refresh, the bath was also stained. Breakfast was not the best, the food seemed as if it had been stood keeping warm for a little while.

The staff were very friendly and accommodating. The room was good, although not exceptional. Dinner and breakfast at the restaurant were excellent, and the common areas (lounge, library, grounds) were wonderful as well.
The room could have had a few more amenities, such as convenient places to plug devices, more than one towel. A request for two single beds was acknowledged by the property, but the room was made up as a double when we arrived.
