Excellent place for a romantic getaway!
Pros:

We stayed in a bothy at the distillery. It was amazing! It was stocked with whisky and the fridge had some mixers and tea cakes. The shower was fantastic with locally sourced soap and shampoo. The best part was the shade that acted as a screen for the projector. We enjoyed watching the World Cup in our bothy. ⚽️

Pros:

Las instalaciones son hermosas, el lugar, la cabaña, el hotel en general. Esta muy bien decorado y las vistas son increíbles.

Cons:

El personal es agradable pero les hace falta ser capacitado para trabajar en hotelería 4 estrellas.
Nuestra experiencia para hacer el check in fue horrible. Cuando llegamos no había nadie en la recepción, después de esperar un rato fuimos a la zona del bar a preguntarle a la camarera de ahi si podiamos tomar o comer algo. No recibimos respuesta positiva, solo podíamos tomar un trago y no había nada para comer hasta la 1 del mediodía. En un momento vimos una chica, Rachel, que estaba en la recepción asique fuimos a presentarnos y a pedir el check in. Nos dijo que hasta despues del mediodia era imposible, nos hizo llenar unos papeles, y listo. Después de estar en el bar por una hora y media descubrimos que había un living en el cual podíamos esperar donde había café e infusiones para que podamos tomar, el cual jamas nos habían comentado de su existencia. Cuando almorzamos a la 1, una vez que abrió el restaurant y que seguíamos sin poder entrar a nuestra habitación, no nos vinieron a atender a la mesa y nos tuvimos que levantar a hacer el pedido cuando ya sabían que estamos muertos de hambre esperando la apertura del mismo.
El hotel es hermoso y las chicas que trabajan tienen buena predisposición, el hotel tiene un potencial enorme pero hace falta capacitar al personal en atención al público, en servicio y en los modales que hay que tener al momento de hacer de camarero. Sobre todo porque se nota que la inversión en infraestructura es enorme y quieren posicionarse como un alojamiento de lujo / boutique y tienen todo para hacerlo, solo les falta capacitar al personal.

Amazing experience
Pros:

We loved the complimentary drinks and the free distillery tour and tasting as a part of our stay! The staff are incredible, and we didn’t get to eat at the restaurant due to it being closed on Wednesdays- they did send us Nextdoor to Raasay House and we had a wonderful dinner! Would DEFINITELY come back and if you’re wondering whether or not to book here- just do it! You won’t regret it! Ellen was an absolute gem :)

Pros:

Amazing from the moment we arrived. Our bothy was stunning, and perfect for travelling with three people. The extra touches like whisky in the room, snacks, dressing gowns and toiletries made it feel very special. We enjoyed the distillery tour in the evening, and dinner was fantastic. In the morning we loved the bothy breakfast hamper! A treat from start to finish with super friendly staff who made us feel very welcome.
