Beautiful house with picturesque views.
Pros:

We had a charming room on the highest floor. Lots of stairs, but we expected that and only brought in what we needed for the night. We didn't eat dinner at the restaurant, but it smelled amazing. We did eat breakfast the next morning and it was really good. The staff was friendly and accommodating. Our room was very large and the bathroom quite spacious. . .not always what you find in Europe. I'd definitely stay again!

Cons:

Nothing. . .everything was great!

Pros:

This property was positively magical. From the turreted roof to the enchanting gardens to the loch-side views, it felt like we were in another era. The staff were kind and the high tea was absolutely fabulous. For having such storied history, the hotel is kept up to high standards, and we adored our suite with a view. The perfect place for an overnight stay on the way to Skye.

Cons:

There was very little to dislike about Bunchrew. The bed was a bit firm for our liking but that is just personal preference.

Meine Frau hatte während unseres Aufenthaltes Geburtstag. Sie haben leider trotz vorheriger Absprache das Geburtstagsdessert für meine Frau vergessen, das war sehr schade.

Scottish Serenity!
Pros:

I can hand on heart, say this was one of the best hotels I have stayed in! Absolutely outstanding in all aspects. I am trying to think of anything that could be improved upon and the only one I could think of was to change the use of high quality paper napkins to linen ones in the restaurant!

Cons:

Nothing!

História, classe e romantismo
Pros:

A localização à beira do lago, uma casa com muito charme histórico, e o pequeno-almoço à la carte bem servido, boa oferta de chá/café no quarto.

Cons:

Apenas uma nota: alojamento ideal para quem esteja de carro, pois embora a localização seja magnífica, o centro de Inverness fica a 10/15 minutos de carro.
