Bedrooms have magnificent en suite bathrooms and views of the ever-changing Highland scenery. Guests enjoy beautifully presented Scottish dishes in the dining room overlooking the loch and mountains. There is an extensive wine list and a famous selection of over 300 malt whiskies.There's a full range of outdoor activities.
