“This historic coaching inn offers something unique: a waterside location with views over the loch, and surprisingly swift access to Glasgow. It seems well-suited to families (dogs are welcome in bar areas) and those seeking a blend of outdoor pursuits and local pub culture; the architecture has real charm. I particularly appreciate the commitment to local craft beers and themed dining, creating an authentic connection to the area.”

The staff was very friendly. They were unbelievably cute. The service was amazing, I must say. Food came out hot, which I very much appreciated.
I found the room was not the one I booked months earlier. The wet room had poor fixtures and fittings. It was quite disappointing. the toilet seat was not the right size for the toilet.

Fantastic Stay!
freshly cooked breakfastgreat water viewsperfect poached eggs
I loved the seafront location. The views from the hotel over the water were fine! Breakfast offered many choices. Everything seemed freshly cooked and of high quality. The poached eggs were perfect. I was impressed. I'm so happy.
I found that controlling the room temperature was difficult. The heating came on late at night. It was a small issue.
