Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is nestled in an idyllic location by the Loch, offering a serene setting. The rooms boast amazingly comfy beds and beautiful views, creating a relaxing ambiance. The service provided, including housekeeping and a welcome drink, enhances the overall experience. However, the dining experience falls short with limited options, and the price may not fully reflect the value received.
The hotel offers stunning views and comfortable beds, but the service could be improved. The location is idyllic, yet the dining options are limited. Despite some drawbacks, the facilities are satisfactory.
The hotel offers a wonderful view of the lake and a comfortable king-size bed. The service was exceptional, including a lovely welcome drink. The location is idyllic, perfect for those seeking tranquility near the loch. The dining experience with traditional Irish pancakes was a delightful touch. Overall, a great value for money.
