The castle sits on lovely grounds with walking trails and its own island. It is two miles from Tarbert, a convenient stop on the way to the ferry. The castle has comfortable sitting rooms, a bar and restaurant, and outdoor seating. Our room was quite large, with a living area as well as a bedroom and bath. We had water views from three directions. The staff was friendly. I would have liked a better map of the property for our walks. The room needed updating, for example, the carpet and parts of the bathroom seemed quite old. However, it was clean and comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
