Reviews and Ratings
The hotel is located in a beautiful remote area by the wee loch, offering a serene escape. The rooms are spacious and cozy, and the staff is incredibly welcoming. However, the dining options could be more diverse and the lack of nearby choices may limit experiences.
The hotel is set in the picturesque islands of Scotland, nestled on the wee loch next to a small loch, offering a seven-day getaway. The stay had its charm with friendly staff and delightful dining choices while some aspects could be improved for a more enhanced experience.
The hotel is tucked away in a really out-of-the-way area on an Island in the Outer Hebrides, next to a small loch. It's a peaceful location with limited choices nearby. The rooms offer a great place to hang wet clothes but lack some modern amenities. The service is friendly and informative, making me feel welcome. The dining experience is a mix with local black pudding on the menu but the options could be more varied. Overall, it's a nice escape if you're looking for a quiet retreat.
