Le repas au restaurant fut fabuleux et le chef, également maître des lieux, nous a offert un numéro comique dont on se souviendra et un repas sans précédent ! Il a des récompenses depuis des années et on comprend pourquoi ! Le petit déjeuner est aussi fait maison... un régal sans parler de l accueil dans la chambre avec des Fudges Homemade (à tomber) !
Une fois arrives le soir, on a été sous le charme et ne sommes ressortis et repartis que le lendemain ! Lieu incontournable ! read less

A truly memorable experience. Excellent food, attentive and friendly staff in a charming setting. Thank you for making our night so special.

Beautiful food. Great night with wonderful food and service.
We could not fault a thing every course was delicious and beautifully presented.
Thank you team.

The building itself is a very impressive Victorian mansion which Lloyd and Julia are keeping in good order. Our room (their basic one) was plenty big enough and the bed was very comfortable. But the real delight was the food - the dinner menu gave plenty of choice and we were both very pleased with the quality of ingredients, preparation and service. There was a good choice of wines too. Breakfast was also excellent. The description 'restaurant with rooms' is very well-deserved and we have every intention of stopping there again when we are next in the area. read less

Very relaxing stay. Great food, welcomig staff, great ambiance
Parking a little difficult, some difficulty in identifying the building

Der Besitzer des Hotels hat uns zudem mit seiner freundlichen und offen Art und seinen lustigen Geschichten und coolen Sprüchen herrlich unterhalten. Das Essen war hervorragend; das Ambiente königlich. Wir wurden wie richtige englische (pardon: schottische) Lordschaften behandelt.
Auch wenn ich auf hohem Niveau Jammern wollte, fiele mir nichts ein. read less

The Cluny Bank Hotel is a gem. The Hotel is small and inviting and the hosts add to what makes this place special. If you want a personal touch Julia and Lloyd hit the mark. I am in the food business and Lloyd will impress any Foodie with his dishes and discussions. I came here for work and felt like I was on holiday... Thank You. read less

Die Gastgeber waren sehr, sehr freundlich und rundeten den guten Eindruck von dem Hotel noch zusätzlich ab.
Das Frühstück war sehr gut,- die Nachtruhe ebenso.
Unsere Ausflüge in die Highlands konnten wir ab diesem Standort gut unternehmen.
Wir haben keine negative Erfahrungen gemacht.

Just had a faultless meal for our anniversary. The food and wine was superb as well as all the tiny little details. Hard to believe we weren't in the middle of a big cosmopolitan city. Just perfect.

Excellent! Excellent service from first welcome to reluctant departure. Lovely room. Dining experience superb, including accommodating dietary requirements for breakfasts, packed lunches and dinners. Highly recommended for a relaxed stay with lots to do locally.

Fabulous place to stay and to eat, will definitely be back.

very comfortable hotel Very comfortable room and lovely decor, delicious breakfast. We had a warm welcome and we would stay here again. The bathroom was very nice with attractive tiling. There was tea and coffee etc in the room but no mini fridge.
