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.

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!

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.

My cocker spaniel escaped immediately on arrival and headed directly to the kitchen. He was retrieved by the owner without fuss or bother. A bowl of hospitality dog biscuits in the room made him very happy. The room was well presented and very clean. The only problem we had was with the shower head which we were unable to operate. We had no time to contact staff as we did not realise there was issue until we were preparing to leave in the morning. Puddle, the cocker spaniel, was welcome in the bar and also the dining room. The staff were as polite, friendly and informative as I have ever met. It was an entire pleasure from beginning to end. I cannot rate highly enough.
