The hotel sits right on the serene shores of Loch Gilp, offering a beautiful view. The rooms are cozy and modern, although some may find the big screen TV obstructs the view over the loch. The welcome drink and pet amenities are a nice touch, but the dining options are limited. Overall, a comfortable stay with a stunning location.

This hotel exceeded my expectations in multiple aspects. The rooms were luxurious with unexpected jacuzzi tubs and stunning loch views. The service was exceptional, including a lovely welcome drink and even pet amenities available. The location on the side of a hill overlooking the loch was simply breathtaking. Dining options were fantastic with fresh dishes served. However, the facilities could be improved, and the price may not fully align with the overall value provided.

The hotel offers stunning Loch views and a luxurious Jacuzzi tub in the room, but the big screen TV can obstruct the beautiful scenery. The welcome drink and pet amenities are thoughtful touches, yet the dining options could be more diverse. Located on the serene shore of Loch Gilp, the hotel provides a tranquil atmosphere, though access to local transport might be limited.
