Have everything you need. Location is great with beautiful views. The room could have more lighting, improvements added to television since our last visit. Beds are comfy. Best addition is the alarm clock that has many settings for background music ( rain and thunder sound etc) helps when you might share the room with friends who snore lol. Onsite pub serves great food and they have convenience store on site.

Nothing to add! Everything is great

The room was clean and nice-looking. The bed was extra comfy and cozy. We appreciated having a mini fridge, a microwave and a coffee maker. We also liked the opportunity to play a bit of basketball! Unfortunately, the shower didn't work well. The water was either freezing or boiling. No in-between.

Unfortunately, the shower in room 8 didn't work well at all. The water was either freezing or boiling. No in-between. When we put the lever in the middle, the water cut off completely. Had to fill the tub and have a bath instead.

Having booked a deluxe room we had a fantastic view of the lake and surrounding area, nice quiet area and the Scottish Heritage Museum next door was very interesting to visit

The attached inn had a Ceilidh night and we weren't informed that we had to pay for the Ceilidh when we sat down to eat and only found out when it was added on to our bill at the end, I feel this should be explained at the outset then we could have decided whether to stay or wait till it had finished to eat. There was similar music on our second night yet that time there was no charge. For us the music was too loud to have a conversation even though we sat upstairs

It overlooks the Bras d’Or lake and every room has a lake view. We sat on our deck and watched a pair of bald eagles teach their young how to fly. You are in close proximity with your neighbours, but everyone was friendly and chill. There is an on site liquor and convenience store, and restaurant with a great view, local beers, and different events like trivia night and live music. They serve an exceptional hot buffet breakfast every morning as well (not included in room price). I easily could spend a couple days just at the inn and have a great time.

It’s across the street from a school and we were there while school was in so we could hear the bells and all the loud speaker announcements from the deck.

Although we had a great view, and the location is interesting but far away from any tourists attractions, a park or beach etc. It would be at least an hour drive to places of interest. They have a pub on site that offers pretty good meals, there are no other choices nearby. This something to keep in mind when booking the place. We liked that the whole facility and rooms have a character and interesting decorations. Our room had original artworks made by a local artist which reflects on the areas nature and uniqueness of the place. It was a joy to look at those artworks.

Away from tourists attractions and other dining options.

The view of the Bras d'Or Lake is soooo gorgeous! Every room seems to have a view, too! It's a walking distance from the Highlands Scottish Village, which is an interesting spot well worth visiting.

The floor of our room could have been cleaner: there were some dust bunnies at the foot of the beds. There should be an identified parking spot for each room: there was a show at the pub on one of our nights there and we could barely find a parking spot when we came back to our room after an outing at the beach.

Beautiful view with a newly renovated and spacious room. Rooms were tastefully decorated and as depicted by the website. The Pub on site was convenient and the food was good. This place made a great start to our vacation. I would definitely return.

The only downside was the beds. The mattress could be replaced, egg crate toppers don't make up for a tired mattress.

Beautiful water view from our second floor balcony room. We watched the sunrise. We ended up staying a second night. The Cajun haddock at the restaurant was delicious. Walking distance to the Highland Village Museum which was a excellent. We also enjoyed nearby MacCormick Park. The ferry available 24/7.

The location was a bit far for driving the Cabot Trail.

if you want a cottage vibe with regular hotel amenities this place is for you! All the rooms overlook water so doesn’t matter which room you get you are guaranteed the best view possible! the sunrise and sunsets are amazing here especially the sunrise that happens right infront of the property. The staff is very hospitable and sweet. the buffet breakfast is absolutely fantastic includes tasty omelette, bread,cereals, sausage, bacon, coffee etc with amazing view from the restaurant on site. They also have live music band perform here often and the museum is right next to the property is a must visit! overall I would give this place 1000/10!!!

the property is stunning but would be nice to have some more lamps in the room so it can be illuminated a bit more! not a complaint just a suggestion :)

A lovely location, overlooking the Bas D'Or Lake and next to the Highland Village Museum, which is a must. Clean and comfortable rooms. Helpful staff in the restaurant and tasty breakfast.

Roku TV is impenetrable to someone from Scotland. Couldn't find any local news & weather. We coincided with a quiz night so we were placed upstairs in the restaurant which was a bit noisy and busy.
