Pros:

The Cairn Lodge is one of the most beautiful places we’ve ever stayed. Beautiful historic architecture in wooded setting, well maintained, accent lighting, beautifully furnished and stylishly decorated. We loved dinner and breakfast in the atrium. Food and service were impeccable. Relaxing bar area, easy parking. Easy in and out. Rooms were also beautiful. Comfortable. Richard gave us a warm greeting and service along with all waitstaff. Highly recommended. Great value!

Pros:

Have used hotel previously and staff are great, very accommodating. Only thing would be breakfast at an earlier time maybe 7.30 instead of 8, Al & Trip-A state 7am but not correct. The staff did advise if we ask them ahead of time they’d accommodate the 7am start though. Clean & roomy rooms with great bathroom area. Definitely use again.

Pros:

After some initial confusion over the standard of room allocated being different to that which we had reserved, all resolved very easily, we had a great one night stay at Cairn Lodge on our way to the Western Isles.
The food and service both at dinner and for breakfast were superb and I can highly recommend a stay at Cairn Lodge

Pros:

Cairn Lodge is fantastic! The decor stunning, the service impeccable, the food delicious and the the price very reasonable!

We also stayed at The Gleneagles just down the road and found the service at Cairn Lodge to be just as good. You could quite easily book yourself a meal or an activity at The Gleneagles, then save yourself £600 and stay at Cairn Lodge. You wont be disappointed!
