Pros:

The staff were helpful and friendly

Cons:

The room was very dated. Single glazed windows meant people standing outside talking could be easily heard (above outdoor bar tables). Bathroom also dated. At the rate I paid at this standard of hotel,

A gem in the area. A nice and clean place with good dining and very nice personnel.
Pros:

Clean room and newly renovated bathroom, stylish. A very good restaurant and great hospitality. The house was impressively old 1762 but in very good shape.

Cons:

I didn’t have any problems but my wife said she missed a softer mattress pad and found the bed a little bit hard.

Pros:

Zeer warm welkom door receptionist die z'n vak in alle opzichten verstond. Ook tijdens de rest van het verblijf bleef hij alert en attent om te zien hoe hij ons verblijf zo oprltimaal mogelijk kon maken.
Voor het overige een klassiek hotel op prachtige rustige locatie met prima kamers, goed ontbijt en diner.
Bar leek wat kil, maar bleek uiteindelijk een prima plek voor ongedwongen ontmoeting met onbekenden. Kortom, zo zou het overal moeten zijn.

Cons:

Niets

Highland Hotel experience
Pros:

Our second stay at this lovely Highland Hotel.
All Staff are welcoming and so very helpful, friendly and observant, anticipating needs and offering timeous and approriate help.
Spotlessly clean, spacious and comfortable bedroom with adaptations to assist with mobility for one of us. Daily servicing of the bedroom to a high standard by friendly attentive staff.
Attractive restaurant with lovely food and careful dietary adaptations (gluten free for us) by Chef and Servers.
Attractive and comfortable lobby with daily papers and spacious and a comfortable bar for after dinner coffee and socialising.
Lots of information is available on the local area, natural history and places of interest. A full programme of talks, walks and birdwatching is available from local expert leaders.
The atmosphere is truly Highland at its best.

Cons:

We couldn't stay longer!
