Loved our room with view of the Loch. Staff were very friendly, polite and helpful. Great breakfast and location perfect. The only fault was the weak pressure on the shower.

Got a really rough welcome at check-in- simply for being one hour early- was reprimanded like a child. I almost turned around and left, from the level of rudeness. The people in the restaurant were lovely though!
