Am a bit bemused and baffled by these positive reviews. The place is not in good nick as demonstrated by the door handle hanging off the main entrance door. Took 40 minutes for our food to arrive. The chef seems to work a system where they cook everyone's starters first then the main courses no matter which table ordered first.... More

Stay here if you want to experience famous west highland hospitality at its best. Owners Graham and Jo lead a team of staff that will be hard to beat for being helpful, friendly and enthusiastic in dealing with all guests needs. All meals are to be savoured with food being locally sourced and cooked and presented to a very high... More

Had a lovely meal. we hadn't booked and although they were very busy the waitress went out of her way to get us a table. Our food was served very quickly and was good quality. Really nice place and would have definatley returned, just wish Strontian, where we were staying, had a taxi service.

Stayed in June 2012 for 3 nights as part of Wilderness Scotland kayak trail. Staff extremely helpful and friendly and food was locally sourced. Excellent breakfasts and choices of menu which was most welcome before a day on the water. Evening food reflected local produce and some of the biggest steaks I have seen.Popular with locals for an evening out.... More

My husband booked this for us for a nights stay. I must say when we drove up I did have reservations. We were greeted by the friendly chef who took us to our room. The rooms are dated but spotlessly clean and extremely comfortable. We went for an Evening meal which was delicious and all fresh produce. Compliments to the... More

Went on trip advisor recommendation and we were not disappointed. Rooms are quite small and simple but spotless and lovely and warm. Lovely to have sauna and spa bath at the end of a long walk. Excellent food and wine and a really imaginative menu as is clear from the number of locals and other holidaymakers who come just to... More

Cannot fault the friendliness of the staff here, however we had several easily avoidable issues during a one-night stay. Front door was locked on arrival (other guests let us in a side door), no towels in room, missing wifi password, 'ring for service' bells just didn't work. Room was basic and overpriced for a couple - we could have booked... More
