Stayed here with my husband and 2 kids under 5yrs. Breakfast was very nice! The location gave us access to a lot of things around Loch Lomond (Faerie Trail was the kids favorite). Parking was convenient and the hotel is close to other restaurants. I would stay here again.

Had a lovely stay. Just one night. Very clean. Full breakfast next morning. Would definitely recommend. Only reason I didn’t give excellent 5 ⭐ hand soap was empty upon arrival you’d think that would be checked and topped up on a deep clean.

The family room was a good size. Bed was comfortable. Towel hooks were lacking in the room. Maybe because it looked as though part of a rail was missing above the end of the bath.The carpets heading to the first floor had wrappings lying around and weren't cleaned during our stay. The cooked breakfast was good. We had a good evening meal.
