The hotel welcomed us warmly. The Christmas decorations added charm, atop the already fine decor. Our lodge included ample space, comfortable furnishings, and lovely views. The food was amazing. Every plate tasted fantastic. The Scottish breakfast was also a highlight.
The artificial fragrance upon arrival was strong. It's the only very slight negative I noticed.
