The Shore House is in a fantastic position next to the sea lock and with wonderful views of the hills either side. Liz and Billy were excellent hosts. We had an excellent breakfast. No hesitation in stopping at the Shore House again.

The room was absolutely great! We got an upgrade which was such a wonderful surprise. Food wise not so many options for vegetarians. The margarita pizza we had was terrible. Staff was decent. Amenities were okay, kids can use the pool at any time. There are no kids free hours which was a bit of a ...

Verified traveller

Lovely remote area for some peace & quiet

4/5 - Good

Verified traveller

If you're driving from the Glasgow direction it's best to take the second Cairndow exit, as the hotel is very close to that end. If you enter from the first turn you have to drive a longer distance on a narrow single-track road.

2/5 - Disappointing

Verified traveller

The hotel is loch-side, but toward one end. Given recent weather patterns, this unfortunately meant that the water was quite low and the view was spoiled by the sludgy residue that stretched for a good distance from the normal shore.
