It’s a little tired but we didn’t mind.

This is a real gem…. A beautiful location on the edge of Loch Awe. The hotel is quirky and interesting with a resident cat! We loved it. The food in the restaurant and staff were great.

Struggling to find anything we did not like.

What a wonderful baronial-style property set in quite outstanding scenery. The original features of the hotel offered delightful public rooms with great views over Loch Awe. Our bedroom was a little dated but very well appointed. The staff were welcoming, very efficient, polite and friendly. The menu was delicious; locally sourced fish, beef and venison prepared to local recipes as well as dishes for every taste. We enjoyed walking in the extensive grounds where wildlife abounded. The whole experience was characterised by peace and quiet and we would go back in an instant if we had the chance. This hotel is a real gem.

The location was fabulous and I loved finding the forest walkway. The hotel had obviously seen better days and was a bit run down, but still regal. I can sum it up by saying that it would be the perfect location to film Rocky Horror Show - the Sequel. The staff was marvelous.

Grounds could do with a but of care and upkeep but that did not detract from my stay

Lovely old place with lots of charm. Rooms were little dated but clean and comfortable. Staff were friendly and helpful. My dog was made very welcome too.

Very low signal on the wifi but didn't matter since you go there to get away from work.

The quirky old vibe was stunning. Our second time here and it never stops to impress.

Lovely setting. Relaxed and felt at home.

We would have happily stayed without venturing on our full day stay but they didn't have a lunch service so needed to travel by car for lunch. I should have been more prepared and took nibbles but allowed us to see more of the beautiful area so not a hardship. Like all old buildings needs a little development to make it spectacular but still a beautiful building.

Wonderful location, peaceful and beautiful. Great get away for a relaxing break. The hotel was full of character, with different rooms to relax in. Our bedroom was spacious with a large bathroom and area to sit and look out at a beautiful view and the bonus; this was a basic priced room. The gardens were amazing, with many interesting walks and quiet spaces to unwind. Staff couldn’t do enough to make our stay memorable through out our stay. Always someone about, all staff were friendly and knowledgable about the area and hotel. Food was exceptional from breakfast to dinner, all served in a spacious dinning room giving guests privacy. We stayed two nights and were still spoiled for choice. Just found this wonderful hotel and would go back but sadly it is closing.

Nothing but did appreciate that the owner has been struggling in recent years with maintenance but this in no way spoiled an unforgettable stay.

Fairytale storybook location and experience. Absolutely unique and unforgettable stay in an amazing old manor house with very hospitable and helpful staff in stunning grounds

The rooms were a bit dusty.

The scenery was incredible. The location is very remote, peacefu,l and quite. Surrounded by woods, a loch, and incredible treasures which you can discover on your adventure walks around the property.

Our bathroom fan wouldn't turn off for over an hour and prevented our sleeping until well after midnight.

Beautiful location and grandeau.

Although you can feel the old glory of this place, it requires a serious renovation to be able to sustain its operation. The condition of doors/ windows/ electrical/ plumping installations was not good, at least in the rooms that we stayed. The location is a bit isolated and you need at least a '20 drive from the main road network to reach it (without anything else on the way to the hotel)

The idea of spending a few days in an old castle. The castle gardens and the small lake were very beautiful and the staff was polite.

A little damp but it’s Scotland. Would also be good to see a bar menu so you know what to expect cost wise. Some of the house needs a little money invested.

A very unique experience in a Scottish manor House. Felt very special with a a sense of luxury about it. I felt like a lord!
