Top Class Hotel

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Altskeith House, so relaxing with immaculate attention to detail is every respect. The comfortable interior is charming and overlooks the stunning garden and loch. The meals were excellently prepared and presented both at dinner and at breakfast, but the smoked salmon (home smoked) was outstanding.

Peaceful and gorgeous

On smaller loch ard, near Loch Lomond, this hotel is off the beaten path. It’s beautiful and peaceful with amazing views of the water from every window. The hosts are so welcoming and we wish we would have planned to stay longer. They also saved us a lot of driving time by letting is know of a road closure that wasn’t on google maps. The food was good also but I can’t say enough about the hospitality.

Lovely location. The service at breakfast and dinner was very slow. The dinner option was very disappointing and overpriced, compared to other restaurants that we visited in the area. House keeping was very lacklustre, bed not made, towels not changed, coffee and water in the room not replaced.

This property is just a few miles outside of Aberfoyle next to Loch Ard. The house is gorgeous with a lovely dining room, living room, sunroom and patio. It even has a little stream which runs down next to the patio. It is gated and quite safe. Beautiful views from the rooms and the patio - even the dining room has a view! Breakfast both days was wonderful, and dinner very good, although we did not dine there the second night as we were out and about all day. Our hostess was wonderful and gave much attention to small details. Would highly recommend this house for a 2 to 3 night stay!

Altskeith Country House on Loch Ard was delightful! Sitting on the shores of Lake Ard & with a beautiful view of the Scottish mountains, I really can’t imagine any place prettier. Allison & her husband, who run the place are a dynamic duo. Allison has decorated the inn beautifully & the rooms are complete with thick pillows & scrumptious comforters. Her husband is chef & makes wonderful meals. (We didn’t meet him but thoroughly enjoyed his menu.) Staying at Altskeith Country House was a highlight of our trip. Thank you Allison! (. BTW… it’s also a wedding venue. I can’t imagine any place better!)
