We had a comfortable stay for one night. The room was spacious and though we were near a busy road the double glazing blocked out any noise. The beds were comfortable and the shower had good pressure. We also had a hearty breakfast which set us up for the drive ahead.

Lovely overnight stay prior to leaving for the airport the next morning. Wonderful staff, lovely "small" but comfy room for 2. Dinner in the bar/restaurant was wonderful and Connor was great- with meal recommendations and helping us settle into our rom for the night. Breakfast, included, was wonderful, offering a full Highlands breakfast.

Perfectly maintained beautiful older home, very charming. Loved the bar and food options, Making it convenient for our last night and early exit to the airport next morning. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Google directions, however, sent us to a dead end, not the front and parking of the building.

Great stay!

Loved this place and the people. We came in very late after a long flight and they were expecting us, eagerly greeted us and helped us upstairs with our luggage. Great room, USB chargers in the lamp bases. Great breakfast in the morning in the former homes sitting room. Super friendly, and even a history lesson of the property. Highly recommend!
