The hotel was like visiting you great aunts manor! Stephanie helped us upon arrival and was wonderful! Dinner and breakfast were very good and not over priced. After long days of travel and exercise, finishing the night in the hot tub with glass of wine was perfection. The beds were very comfortable and we all slept very well!

Nice and charm away from Oban
Outstanding location if you like the loch view and stay away of Oban that's your place. The only downside is the quality of the water as is not treated (full disclosure provided so is not misleading) so you have to remember NOT to drinking, I think very soon they will fix this issue so hopefully won't be a problem in future Regarding of food only ate scones, claimed to be homemade which it was but not the best I had; cannot comment for other foods

Newly renovated historic building with cozy and tasteful interior. The breakfast buffet needs improving for 4* level and the need to reserve even when the restaurant is empty should be reconsidered. Overall wonderful staff an property.

Hotel is homely and staff very welcoming. Room soft furnishings etc were nice. Food supplied by the hotel was really nice, chef was great. However during our stay the water supply to the hotel is not clean, the toilets/ taps/ shower we’re all running brown/ orange water. The staff said we would have an endless supply of bottled water etc so not to worry and it was fine to bathe in as long as we didn’t drink it but it put me off using the shower etc on our overnight when I would have liked to. I also felt £40 overnight charge for our dog was a bit steep when he didn’t get any kind of welcome package/ dog bed/ biscuit included, which is the norm on any other trip we have taken him with us.

The property was stunning! The staff were so friendly and dedicated and the bar was an excellent addition to the space. The beds were so comfortable and the room was lovely. It is a 10 minute drive out of town but cans are easily accessible and it’s nice to be in a quieter spot!

Not all they are aspiring to be .
Hotel is very nice and everything is top quality except for the service. At well over £200 per night you expect your breakfast to come in the correct order, ie not your cooked breakfast before your porridge. Then when the cooked breakfast comes back 10 mins later you don’t expect it to be the same one you sent away which was neither fresh nor hot. Poor waiter service, obviously untrained. Not good enough for what they are trying to project re price. Top quality destination with very poor quality service.
