Worth a visit

Our bedrooms were excellent.. recently modernised… the main hotel was ok service hit and miss but perhaps a skeleton crew as just after NewYear… had to request for the fires to be lit and the lighting was not good resulting in no ambiance…however the food was excellent..

Nearest thing to staying in a castle for us! Delightful evening with dinner and lovely conversation with other guests. Extensive whiskey list & wines to match a 3 course meal. Stayed in the fishing lodge as there are rooms in the house as well as detached lodges. Very comfortable and charming.

A lovely and unusual property right on a loch. The breakfast room in this gorgeous estate has expansive views of the loch and hills. We stayed in the New Garden Suite, which was like having our own wing with a large room with a king sized bed and a remodeled bathroom. It was extremely clean, the bedding was high quality, and robes and slippers were provided. Breakfast was delicious with many options.
