What a delightful stay! The hotel is attached to a lovely hotel, with welcoming owners and staff. My room was a great size with a great view of Loch Sunart and I enjoyed a fresh supply of lovely biscuits every day. The only downside was the lack of more services available to visitors.

The hotel is located in a stunning, quiet area overlooking the loch, providing a peaceful and untouristy atmosphere. The rooms are cozy and well-equipped, though may be a bit tight for larger guests or those with disabilities. The helpful and accommodating staff ensure a relaxing stay, although a small remark during dining dampened the experience. A light and bright conservatory adds charm to the location. It's a lovely spot for exploring and unwinding, with a cozy pub and restaurant next door.

The hotel offers fantastic local art in the rooms accessed through a unique lockable door. The space might be a bit tight for larger individuals, so it's worth checking for more roomy accommodations. Storage is a bit lacking, but the decor is splendid. Situated on the first floor with stairs access 'around the back'.
