Comfortable but needs an upgrade

Lovely location and comfortable. Our loch side lodge was clean but very dated and the showers were not very effective. Changing rooms in spa also quite shabby.

8/10 Very good

Lovely location , but with two children there were no dining facilities on offer as the Rafters Bar was not open. The villa was clean and well equipped.

Beautiful location
Arunwan, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The location around the loch was great. The staff was really nice and helpful. The room itself was spacious with two bathrooms. The main bed was hard but good. The second bed was terrible. It was folded away in the main closet in the living room. The mattress was too short and very thin. With a minor investment a good sleeping couch would make it very nice and at least 5 stars. But since the whole purpose of a room is sleeping I have it a lower score. The interior was a bit outdated but very clean, spotless and comfortable.

Rooms were supposed to be ready 5pm, which is fairly late by many hotel standards, nevertheless rooms weren't available until around 7pm. Nice apartments with great views, but no elevators and no help with luggage up 3 floors.

Loved the view from the room.. so peaceful..would love to visit again..Theres a coop and wool mill nearby. Watersport opposite the site entrance.
Mathew, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.
Nikki, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

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.

3Nights Without internet Despite Repeated Assuranc

Unfortunately we did not have internet for 3 nights. And despite informing the hotel mutiple times they promised us to fix it the follwoing day and on the following day it still was not fixed which was extremely inconvenient as we had no coverage on our cellphone.
