Accommodations not up to price
Pros:

The hot tub was clean and really nice after a long hike. The room was a decent size and clean.

Cons:

The room was a bit musky and minimal airflow. The value for the money was low and not what I expected. The breakfast only starts at 8am so if you are trying to hike early, it won't work for you. It was a good breakfast when we were able to go.

Wonderful views, dog friendly and great staff.
Pros:

A lovely stay in an amazing location. Breakfast was exceptional. The dinner menu was fairly small (reduced as I understand it because they currently only have one chef), nonetheless the food was excellent and the service was good. The room was spacious, comfortable, well equipped and very clean. I took my dog with me and the hotel is generally dog friendly, although dinner and breakfast are eaten in alternative areas to the main dining room if accompanied by a dog. Not a problem for us as we felt more relaxed. There is an also lovely outdoor veranda with spectacular views. The staff were very friendly. Special mention has to go to Scott who seems to work incredibly hard and could be found on reception, bar and even a bit of waiting on tables at times. He was very friendly and helpful and is definitely a credit to the hotel. I hope his contribution to the team is duly appreciated. Overall a very good stay.

Cons:

Although very clean, a few areas of the hotel are looking a little tired. Rooms are not routinely serviced daily but they will do this if asked. They do leave trolleys on each landing with replenishment tea, coffee toilet rolls etcetera. We were fine with this but as this is not a budget hotel, some patrons may feel that a daily room service should be automatic. All in all though, a great stay and I would recommend.

Fijn verblijf in een prettig hotel dat werkelijk prachtig gelegen is aan het mooie meer
Pros:

De locatie aan het meer is prachtig. Het is een wat ouder hotel zoals je ze vaak tegenkomt in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, met ook de bijbehorende charme. Prima kamer, prima ontbijt (zelfs met haggis!) lekkere whirlpool met uitzicht op het meer en een zwembad en hele aardige mensen. Fijn verblijf

Cons:

De gordijnen verduisteren niet, als het langer licht is in de zomer en je wilt op tijd slapen is dat onhandig. Het ontbijt is ook wat aan de late kant met 8 uur, vanwege een vroege hike hebben we het ontbijt daardoor een keer moeten missen. Rekening mee houden dus als je vroeg weg wilt gaan.

Pros:

Rained while we were there so didnt get the views but was still nice to be beside the water. The room was comfy and clean and the staff were all very pleasant.

Cons:

There wasn't a lot of choice on the menu but it was adequate - didnt go hungry
