Excellent Highland hotel and hospitality.

All aspects of the hotel were very good, all rooms were pleasingly decorated and as you would wish in a traditional highland hotel, even down to some whisky in the room. We requested a front room and this was provided. Great cooking.

I was taken aback by how quiet the surrounding area was. The only noises you could hear, were the sheep and an occassional car going by. Kate and Emma were amazing on ensuring that everything was running according to plan. The food was very tasty and it was nice to interact with other guests during the meals. We met people from all around the world. The rooms were very spacious and clean. Can't wait to visit again!

The hotel is a beautiful Arts & Crafts building which retains all its original features. The public rooms are very pleasant places to relax. The hotel is undergoing a change of ownership and currently does not have a chef so no evening meals are offered. This was a disappointment, but the manager Gabriel (who will remain under the new ownership) was absolutely wonderful and did all he could to look after us. As others have mentioned in their reviews, he drove us on the two night we were there to alternative restaurants in Aberfeldy to make up for the lack of hotel dining. Breakfasts are still available though and were excellent. This hotel should have a great future under its new ownership, particularly if Gabriel stays as manager and a new head chef is appointed.

A Show Stopper

This hotel is an utterly exceptional find. The manager is possibly the most professional we have ever known. Lying up one of the most beautiful valleys in Scotland, the wonderfully peaceful atmosphere is broken only by birdsong and the gentle bleating of lambs. It is just yards from the oldest tree in Europe (a beautiful yew) and possibly the world. The enchanting village church is immediately opposite. Our substantial Scottish breakfast was delicious. The entire property was appropriately and tastefully, rather than trendily, decorated - but if you are seeking glitz and bling then do keep looking. The staff were, however, the highlight of our stay and could not have been more charming, accommodating or welcoming. At weekends, an informal gathering of local musicians often takes place in The Ewe bar and we were treated to some jolly, emotive and world-class music. All were welcome to join in; with or without instruments. It is well worth adjusting one’s route northwards to allow for a stay here. It you are either new to or a seasoned fan of Scotland, then you need venture no further.

Lovely staff, disappointing accommodation

The location is stunning and i think in times past the hotel would reflect that. To start with a positive the staff are really lovely. So friendly and welcoming. They let us book in early and stay longer on the departing day as the road was closed. Which was extremely kind of them. The cooked breakfast was amazing. Generous portions and plenty hot coffee and fresh fruit. Nothing was a bother to them and they made us feel very welcome. Unfortunately the hotel felt quite run down. Unusual musty smell in the lounge and the room we stayed in was very disappointing for the cost. Very dated furniture thats seen better days. The bed was comfortable but the frame must be from the 80's and worn looking. We had a View onto the roof which was disappointing as it was such a beautiful location. The main thing that repelled me was the huge stains on the carpet. I felt i needed to keep my shoes on. It was quite grubby and the stains were large. The bathroom was lovely and very clean, although both my husband and i almost fell while having a shower as the bath surface was so slippy. It would be dangerous for a child or older person i feel. The cost of the hotel is expensive. I dont mind paying when i feel its worth it but the accommodation was far from worth the price. The staff really were lovely though and went above and beyond with their customer service.
