10/10 Exceptional

Double room was fine. Only had one small chair in it and it could have done with a blind. Window looked right on to the car park where workman were and they could see in to the room and any guests using that car park. Not ideal when trying to read and relax on the bed. I had to close the curtains and put lights on in the middle of the afternoon.

Patricia, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great one night stay.

The staff were all attentive, extremely friendly and more than helpful with any requests. Love music was excellent, table service from the bar all for less than the coat of a budget chain hotel in Inverness. Really impressive surrounding area/grounds, just a shame didnt get to try out the health suite/spa facilities.
