Beautiful location and the main hotel building is nice and well maintained however the apartments are not and are very dated and in need of refurbishment. The WiFi service is poor which is essential as there is no phone signal at this location. The food at the restaurant was fine and staff were helpful.

Lovely location, apartments need Renovating completely…. Taps in apartments are hot and cold individual taps…water so hot that a child could burn their hands…..decor which is dated and tired….everything needs updating and maintaining from our experience… The location is out of this world hence the 3 stars…. Wifi did not work….horrendous coverage in resort - phone signal also not good but to be expected in such a lovely location….but the wifi should be sorted properly by the hotel It’s called a resort - but the tennis courts are missing nets and the court ground is turning to rubble….the kids play area is missing a swing of some sort and is small……not much to do for them…swimming is time limited for kids Apartments are cleaned, but our apartment smelt of pets…. No electric vehicle charge points- absolute joke Overall a lovely location you won’t be disappointed but if you are a person with good standard of hygiene and cleanliness - you will be disappointed as we were.

The hotel is lovely but is run down and in need of a facelift. I cannot fault it on the cleanness. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The staff are very friendly and helpful. Its location is superb! If you want to play tennis, the courts are terrible and in desperate need of resurfacing.

Beautiful loch side views from this gorgeous hotel. It’s a little run down in parts and stair well etc not the cleanest but the room is gorgeous, big and clean. The dinner room is beautiful, fantastic quality food and service. The swimming pool is gorgeous and the grounds are very picturesque. We had the best time! However food and activities are pricey

Few wee days away

Family break with dog. Apartment was excellent but well used/dated but the view over the loch made up for this. Recycling could be better. We previously stayed in the hotel but this served us better this time with self catering.

The location is very good. apartment is average, old looking and dark. stairs leading up to the apartment was unclean and filthy. Front door key was fiddly and difficult to open most of the times. Sauna was nice and the most important plus point in the apartment.
