Beautiful view
Pros:

The view from our bedroom and the dining room was so nice, easy parking and close to the commando monument.

Cons:

Menu was set, a bit on the pricy side for us, but very nice starter and main course. Breakfast toast was made with something that produced a very hard toast.

What a stunning hotel!
Pros:

I really loved this hotel! The location is superb and very convenient when travelling from the far north back to Argyll. It’s a lovely building in beautiful grounds and we were made welcome by helpful staff. Our dog was welcome too, which always makes a difference to me. The weather was fairly dire, so we didn’t sit outside, but it must be great to do so when the sun shines. The room was very comfortable and warm (a bit too warm for my partner). Lovely bathroom too. The home made cookies were a nice touch. It was possible to hear from other rooms a bit, and my partner said that was the only thing he didn’t love.

Cons:

Nella pace del verde
Pros:

La posizione immersa nel verde e la colazione servita

Cons:

Fanno posteggiare le auto davanti alle camere e quindi quando arriva o parte qualcuno disturbano la pace del luogo. Stanze un po piccole

Lovely setting.
Pros:

The setting is amazing and so are the views. The receptionist was charming.

Cons:

Lack of adequate sound proofing between rooms. I was kept awake by the TV in the next room until very late and then woken by a dog barking in the same room.
