I stayed here on Friday night after getting a deal for b&b, facial and dinner for £200. The location is fabulous, really beautiful. However the hotel is very dated! I can appreciate that traditional is what people are looking for in this location, however it felt more dated than traditional. The "cocktail lounge" had a massive hole in the wall... More

Stayed here last weekend. The location is stunning, loch, forests, mountains literally on your doorstep. What's not to like. The hotel itself is OK. I thought the rooms were a bit tired, but perfectly nice. The spa and leisure facilities are great. A second hot tub would be nice, there are some real hot tub hoggers in the world. The... More

Stayed 1 night what a lovely place Spa gorgeous fantastic massage. Just make sure you request an upgraded lodge and don't expect Internet access signal is poor but a getaway break just the ticket! Weather let us down but what can you expect for a bank holiday. Staff very helpful Would recommend

We have recently returned from Forest Hills after yet another one week break. The lodge had recently been refurbished and we were very impressed! It was new and clean and cosy, with quality furnishings and fittings. Very comfortable. We had asked in advance for an extra fold down bed to be provided, but it wasn't there when we arrived. We...

Stayed here for 1 night with a friend, booked a spa deal through last minute.com. Bed and breakfast, 30 min massage, bath robe and slippers to use in leisure club and chocolates on arrival. Price paid for all was cheaper than booking just a massage direct with the spa!! Our room was in the old traditional part of the hotel... More

We had booked this through a last minute spa deal and were originally booked in for the Saturday night. Unfortunately we had a family bereavement earlier that week and the funeral was the Saturday. We contacted the hotel who were extremely considerate and move our booking to the Sunday which was in fact our Anniversary. We were given a lovely... More
