The hotel is located in the pretty hamlet of Colintraive, on the banks of the Kyles of Bute, offering a lovely place to stay. The rooms are beautifully decorated and spacious, with friendly and helpful hosts, although they might be a bit overpriced. The dining options were a mix of delight and disappointment, with some amazing choices and some subpar dishes. The location is ideal for a restful stay and exploring the nearby islands.
