So comfy, so friendly!

I would stay there again just for the bed, let alone the great service, super friendly staff and incredible views. Had a meal in the hotel for my birthday and not only were the staff lovely and food delicious, they treated me to a surprise dessert platter!

The Knipoch is decorated in the most perfect country house style. Check in was very welcoming and seamless and in no time we were shown to our rather lovely room… From the artwork to the lamp bases; the bed throw to the amenities, and the incredibly comfortable bed it is obvious that they really care. We thoroughly enjoyed the comfort of the lounge, sitting in front of a roaring fire whilst we sipped our evening drinks. We only stayed the one night but will definitely be going back.

The property is in very good decorative condition with lovely seating areas. Service was excellent and the staff very welcoming and friendly. Food was good but I would have liked a simpler choice on the menu for times when you don't want a heavy type of meal.

A really beautiful hotel recently refurbished and looking and feeling 5*. Staff friendly and obliging, warm and inviting in a beautiful position overlooking the loch with plenty of outside seating areas. Breakfast was everything you could want but evening meal a little limited for our taste and perhaps a little pricey.
