Enjoyed our stay - beautiful location in glorious weather!! ☀️ Just a few extra touches would have made all the difference, such as upgraded amenities in our room (providing tissues, magnifying mirror, better quality toiletries etc) and more varied dining and breakfast menu options, otherwise a fairly standard 4 star hotel. Biggest issue was the creaky floor above our bedroom, sounded like the elephants were having a dance!! All in all however, we would definitely stay there again 😊

Very Faulty Towers…..My husband and I stayed here for 2 nights after arriving from New York in October 2024. I had refrained from reviewing this hotel immediately after my stay, as I Terrible check-in experience with inexperienced staff and unwelcoming manager, who was more inclined to hold a staff meeting than provide

Our stay at this 15th-century country house was a truly memorable experience. Nestled just across the street from a stunning loch and only a short drive from Oban, the location perfectly blends history, tranquility, and convenience. Check-in was smooth and welcoming, setting the tone for the rest of our visit. Our room was beautiful and spacious, with windows overlooking the front garden and loch — a peaceful and picturesque view to wake up to. As you'd expect with a house of this age, the walls were quite thin. We could hear the guests next door and even some noise from the staff in the room above. It’s part of the charm of an older property, though worth noting if you're a light sleeper. The dining room was a lovely space — charming and character-filled, with paintings adorning the walls. There were also two cozy sitting areas, each with comfortable couches, armchairs, and inviting fireplaces. These were the perfect spots to unwind with a glass of scotch from the bar after a day of exploring. Overall, a unique and relaxing stay in a beautifully historic setting. Would highly recommend for those looking to experience a bit of Scottish charm and heritage. But still are enjoying the modern amenities of upgraded bathrooms☺️

Beautiful location and the staff couldn’t be more attentive. Both the building and the view of the lake were lovely, I would happily come back at another time. Particularly at Christmas given the Christmas dinner offer they have on!
