"This really is a home from home feeling with a fabulous lounge area with wood burning stove keeping your warm while you relax."
"The owners, Andrew and Paula, the staff who work there, the stunning nature around, my single room that had a window sun roof."
"Conveniently located at the southern terminus of the West Highland Way Trail, it is perhaps best described as a trail angel hotel."
