Our stay here was short but sweet. We had dinner at the hotel in their quirky restaurant. The fish and chips hit the spot. The room was well equipped with some nice extras including wireless charging stations and French press coffee. Would highly recommend. It was conveniently located as a kick off to our hike up Ben Lomond the next morning.

The unique ancient feel to the restaurant was very special. Our cottage was looking onto a large green area just before a lovely view of Loch Lomond . A few novel luxuries in our apparent 😊

Had a two night stay in a Superior Pod that was larger and more comfortable than many UK hotel rooms. Brand new, very clean. If you're looking for a quiet escape, you can’t do better. Loch views just a short walk, and right by the national park entrance. Lovely pub, restaurant, and coffee shop on the grounds, meals and baking are fantastic. Be forewarned there is very little public transport in the area, plan ahead or you'll have to hitch a ride.

Very basic room with basic amenities for the price! Bed was not comfortable and the pillows were old and thin. One step above camping for the standard room. Surprisingly the staff was not very friendly or hospitable, which was not the case in the other hotels we stayed at. The food and beverages in the restaurant were excellent and the wait staff was nice. The staff in the store next door was super friendly however. Great store! Highly recommend the store and restaurant.

The property is very pretty and the room was beautiful. It would have been nice to have a mini fridge. The shower although is dangerous. The water would alternate between very cold water and scalding hot water within a few seconds of eachother. The water pressure is very weak but that seems to be the norm in Scotland. I had dinner (fish and chips)at the adoining restaurant and enjoyed the service and the food despite having read some negative comments.

We loved this place! Perfect location with a killer restaurant downstairs. Room 81 is basically an entire apartment with views of Loch Lomond. Don’t miss this awesome place if you come to hike the Ben Lomond
