Two night stay at Polochar Inn.
Pros:

The food, both breakfast and dinner were very good.

Cons:

Our sea view bedroom was very small, the ventilation in the en suite was poor which resulted in a degree of mould in the shower around the base and in the tile grouting. The drainage trap in the shower had not been cleaned out and was blocked which resulted in flooding in the bathroom whilst using the shower.
