Very comfortable room with great restaurant attached.
Abbie checked us in and was lovely, we needed more towels and some heating in the room which she organised immediately.
We checked out with Natasha who also was incredibly helpful and organised our breakfast.
All the staff couldn’t be more inviting and made us feel very welcome.
Thank you!
Good value stopover. Room good size with everything you need. very comfy bed. Plenty of hot water. Easy check in and out. Friendly staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Staff were great - though there were only 2/3 people they were quite efficient and very helpful. Location was quite and next to Loch Lomand aquarium, beach, boat rides, etc
Only stayed for a night, but would highly recommend. Very welcoming staff at the inn and adjoining tavern, which had excellent food as well. Perfect place for a quick trip or longer stay.
Room was really good nice and cool and clean, staff were good helpful and friendly, I really enjoyed the Scottish breakfast and evening meals were good
