Deer were in back of property. Maggie and the owner were both very nice, friendly and helpful. The room was comfortable and heat took a while to warm up though we slept warm. Hot chocolate was really good. Also, both the Scottish breakfast and the pancake breakfast were good.

Nice hotel in scenic location

In many ways more like B&B rather than hotel. Public bar downstairs. Breakfast very nice and owner friendly and helpful. Set in a small village with very nice surrounding countryside. My only criticism would be that it was quite expensive for a B&B.

Enjoyed the feel of the place. Service was very quick and staff friendly. Food excellent. Room was very adequate and had an abundance of tea and coffee sachets especially the milk portions. Unfortunately there was no teaspoons. This is the only let down but it was no hardship.... we improvised. Would stay again.

Best place on our highlands tour

This was the best place we stayed at on our tour of the Scottish Highlands. It’s family-run, comfortable and clean. And the food was amazing! It is out of the way from the most common attractions, but it is worth the trip, because it is a wonderful little place located in a quiet part of the highlands.

Fabulous stay

Had a lovely stay. Rooms are comfortable, shower good. Hotel slightly dated and could do with refurbishment in the bathrooms but staff and food are absolutely second to none, best breakfast we have ever had. Lovely walks close by, beautiful gardens to sit in, small shop nearby, great bar. Would definitely go back for the breakfast and lovely staff alone, will book a king size bed next time though.
