The stay in the castle was great! The sight on the shores of Loch Lomond is magnificent. The property is well appointed and maintained. As and older person who uses a cane, I appreciated the easy access and shower. The place is full of amenities and the kitchen is very modern. I would give it 5 stars with these except ions. The shower in the bedroom did not maintain any level of hot water. I was in for less than 2 minutes before it went totally cold. I couldn’t even wash the suds out of my hair. The other suggestion would be to have a central book of information on how to use the fireplace, remotes and appliances.
