The family room was huge and very functional. It included two separate sleeping areas. It also featured a separate toilet and a shower room.
The walls seemed thin. I heard the next door guest snoring at NIGHT. The bed was not comfortable enough for ME. The room seemed a bit outdated.

nice stay in tranquil haven

scenic glenfriendly staffmodern decorstocked bar
the hotel offered a prime location to explore the scenic kilmartin glen i found the staff friendly and helpful the room was clean and had modern decor the view overlooking the glen was amazing i also found the off-road parking very useful. the hotel's proximity to the interesting museum added to the experience the menu was varied and offered ample choice i will visit again soon. i found the well-stocked bar very inviting, especially with its selection of real ales i especially loved the steak ale pie.
the hotel exterior could benefit from a fresh coat of paint i noticed it did little to detract from the overall charm of the stay i understand improvements are scheduled i consider it a minor detail.
