Lovely property with comfortable well appointed rooms. Extremely courteous staff and excellent dining and drinking options. Enjoying the lounge by the fire is terribly cozy, we nixed our plan to pop into Oban. Everything was pristine with keen attention to detail. Didn’t have the time to enjoy the spa but hope to do so during a future visit.

What a joy it was to stay here. So good, in fact, that I stayed an extra night. The staff are all lovely, the location is beautiful, the house is warm and inviting with log burners, leather sofas and sheepskin rugs in the lounge. The bed was amazingly comfortable and the food excellent (the cooked to order breakfast with kippers and porridge is definitely recommended, but the continental breakfast was also a real treat - those croissants…👌). Faultless. And I’m hard to please.

The staff were very welcoming. The hotel is beautiful. The rooms are very clean. The food is delicious. And the setting is outstanding. Playing board games by the fireplace in the evenings was a lovely touch. It’s only a ten minute drive into Oban, burger e high away that it’s peaceful. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will be back. Thank you.
