Feedback about The Factor'S Inn & Factor'S Cottage from previous guests about their experience.
Review summary
Based on recent reviews
Powered by AI
The Factor's Inn & Factor's Cottage provides spacious rooms and a convenient location for exploring attractions such as the Glenfinnan Viaduct, about 25 minutes away. Many appreciate the beautiful grounds and proximity to a stunning castle, making it a great option for those who find the castle itself beyond their budget. Some guests have found the on-site restaurant's limited menu and pricing to be somewhat expensive. The presence of two bathrooms in some rooms, with both a tub and shower, is often highlighted as a plus.

Spacious Rooms and Castle Grounds

spacious room two bathrooms beautiful grounds
I checked in at the castle (a very nice touch). They directed me to the room above the pub. The room was spacious with two bathrooms, definitely a plus for a longer stay. The grounds are beautiful, perfect for walks.
The check-in process had a few steps. Directions could have been clearer.
Rooms
9/10
The inn double room provided a spacious area and included a comfortable bed. Good blinds were available (very important for sleeping). The room also had plenty of light thanks to the large windows.
Dining
8/10
There is a pub located in the same building as the rooms. The pub offers a convenient option for dinner, and it did not cause any noise issues . The menu has limited options.
Location
9/10
The location is a short drive from the town center, about ten minutes away. This provides a quiet atmosphere away from the main tourist area. A car is needed to get around and explore the area.
Service
9/10
Staff at check-out were friendly. Check-in happens at the castle. A welcome drink and biscuits were offered while they finished preparing the room.

Excellent stay near Inverlochy Castle

large room comfortable bed free parking
The room was large and the bed was comfortable (i slept like a log!). Tea and coffee making facilities were available. The grounds of the nearby castle were beautiful. I was able to leave my car there for the day without issue as free parking was available.
The instructions to find the room were vague. It was in a different building where we registered. It was a short drive away.
Rooms

The room had two bathrooms which was fabulous and provided extra convenience. The rooms were spacious and well maintained. Nice towels were provided for use .
