“In my opinion, the hotel's location near the Isle of Skye and Eilean Donan Castle presents a compelling advantage for those eager to explore the Highlands. I also noted that many rooms have pleasing views, though some may face the car park. However, reading multiple opinions, I would suggest that management should focus on improving the dining experience.”
