At Glengarry Castle - Highland

Glengarry Castle Hotel is my new all time favorite hotel. Here's why: it's a beautiful manor house on the grounds of the old Invergarry Castle. rooms are beautiful and individually decorated. Ours had a fantastic view of Loch Oich. very comfortable furnishings. The mattress was great, and we had a nice little sitting area as well. nice bathroom the shower had great water pressure. The toilet can be a little slow to refill, but when you remember the house is 100+ years old, you can't complain. The area immediately around the hotel is amazing to explore. You can walk through the gardens, around (not in, unfortunately) the old castle, as well as up and down the Loch and to the River Garry. Be careful to not let the sheep out. We didn't take advantage of it, but you can rent boats from them as well, along with tennis equipment. I could write a separate five star review just for the dining room, but I'll be succinct and say it's phenomenal. We had three excellent dinners here, and made it to breakfast once. Everything was fresh, cooked to order, and delicious. My husband had steak three nights in a row, while I tried the pheasant, duck and lamb; anything with smoked salmon was delicious as well. No bad picks. Correspondingly, service is phenomenal. Everyone from the front desk to the dining room is lovely. Great location within the Highlands: 45 minutes or so to Fort William, 15 minutes to Fort Augustus and Loch Ness, and an hour or so from Inverness. It's at the perfect spot to explore the Great Glen. I can't say enough about this place everything about it is a wonderful experience.

Great food and great service Lovely location Go through day to appreciate view from dining room Very friendly staff

Das Personal war sehr aufmerksam und zuvorkommend. Der Umschwung rund um das Anwesen ist bezaubernd und das Ambiente im Hotel/Restaurant sehr britisch. Das Essen war einfach fantastisch. Es gibt nicht auszusetzen! Auch der Preis von 45 Pfund für 3 Gänge ist mehr als fair! The staff was very attentive and accommodating. The grounds around the property are charming and the ambience in the hotel/restaurant is very British. The food was simply fantastic. There is nothing to complain about! Also the price of 45 pounds for 3 courses is more than fair!

See my separate review of the hotel. Dinner is extremely reasonably price for the quality of the food and its preparation. The scallops, cod and venison were among the best we've eaten in Scotland, or elsewhere. The breakfast menu was extensive, including full range of Scottish breakfast.

Despite this being a popular location they still seemed to be accepting a few people who turned up on the evening which was a testament to how efficiently they seemed to be coping with the covid restrictions. Food was fine, mine was a fish and chips. Nothing particularly special about it but generous and tasty enough.
