I had a great 2 days of mountain biking with our guide Charlie at this hotel. The rooms are beautifully decorated with each having its own unique decor. While not as luxurious as some, they are like your standard American hotel room. The noise from footfall overhead from the rooms upstairs was a bit distracting at times but overall, a comfortable stay.
Staying at the hotel was an absolute delight. The rooms were not only spacious and comfortable but also offered a stunning view towards Upper Loch Torridon, making relaxation effortless. The service provided by the staff was top-notch, with a warm and welcoming atmosphere throughout.
