loch view delicious food helpful staff
Julie was very helpful. She accommodated us in a beautiful suite overlooking the loch. The wildlife hide was close. I saw otters, seals, and oystercatchers from there. I ate at the Bothy both nights. The haggis olive and the venison goulash were delicious. Michelle and Ali looked after me well.
The bedroom decor felt a little dated, and the heating was intermittent.

The restaurant serves fresh, tasty food with decent portions. The views from there are fine, I noticed. A pub is available for drinks. There is no washing machine on-site, though.
Service
9/10
The staff is friendly, and the manager is great. They offered suggestions for local visits. I enjoyed the wildlife hide. The staff ensured restaurant reservations, because there are few nearby dining options.
Location

The hotel boasts a FANTASTIC location near the loch. It is a short walk to the village. The site is surrounded by underbar nature. The location allowed convenient access to local shops and a cafe.
