"Hôtel de type auberge située dans un coin tranquille des Highlands, sur le bord d’un lac. Eilean Donan Castle est à proximité. J’ai trouvé cette auberge tout à fait charmante, dans une vieille maison où les planchers craquent. Ca m’a donné l’impression de visiter le chalet de mes grands-parents. La chambre était très spacieuse et il y avait de délicates attentions (carafe d’eau, petit sablés). Le déjeuner était délicieux."

8/10 Good
"The accommodation was quiet, private, and had a cozy, cabin-like feel. Having both a washer and dryer was a major plus, especially while traveling. The space is a little older and somewhat cluttered, which made it feel less fresh than some places we have stayed, though it may have been more about the age of the property than the actual cleanliness. The bedroom is upstairs while the bathroom is downstairs, so that is worth keeping in mind. Overall, it was a peaceful and private place to stay with some very useful amenities."
