We stayed at the Inverlochy Castle whilst on our honeymoon in Scotland and highly recommend it. The staff were incredibly welcoming and quick to answer all of our questions and even helped us coordinate the send-off of an at-home CoVID test that we were required to take during our international travel. The scenery around the castle is absolutely breathtaking (especially if you are from North Texas) and watching the deer walk across the glen during the early morning mist with the mountains in the background was sublime.
The autumn colors definitely helped, so we highly recommend going during the fall. We loved both the dinner (though we felt overdressed compared to the other guests since I wore a full suit rather than a suit jacket), but the breakfast was the best part.

This place is overrated and falls very short. Rooms are not as advertised - we were placed in the servant's quarters with infernal blinking Wi-Fi lights right next to the bed. The meal service is inflexible - one group dinner a night at a set time. In our case we were not told of the need to reaffirm the seating and rushed back across one lane roads for three hours to make the seating only to be told, officiously, we were not on the list. These owners clearly don't believe they are in the customer service business. Perhaps new management would make this a winner or some basic training for the staff.

Everything about this hotel proudly declares 5 stars, from the elegant driveway as you arrive, to the beautiful grand hall for afternoon tea and the impeccably furnished bedrooms. When the staff greet you by name and do everything they can to make you feel comfortable and welcome, you know that you've chosen well.

Truly an amazing place where you feel taken care of like you were family. The food is possible the best you can get in this part of Scotland. It is a place for true relaxation. It's possible to arrange clay pigeon shooting on the property. Day trips with boat is also recommend as well as a hike up on Ben Nevis. I would suggest to get on of the bigger suits if vacant, it is an experience in itself. There is also boat to hire in the nearby Loch, and why not go to the Harry Potter train viaduct.

Not stayed there or eaten at it, its a lovely location and the castle looks impressive. Not cheap but must be worth it as its busy most of the year.
