Guest Reviews
- Pagura (10/5): -
- Milana (10/5): Unforgettable 2 days at Lochwood House and Spa! Highly recommended! - The secluded beautiful location of the hotel, warm hospitality, very kind and friendly staff. Marcin was a fantastic host! Enjoyed every minute at the Lochwood House and Spa! None
- Stephen (8/5): Well worth a visit - A wonderful warm welcome from Marcin and his lovely dog to the spa by Loch Goil, nothing was too much trouble for our host. Highly recommended for complete relaxation in a spectacular setting. Nothing
- Celina (10/5): - The accommodation is located in a quiet, secluded spot with views of the water and the mountains. The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. In the evening, we even got to see some seals. Breakfast was fantastic and gave us a great start to the day. Marcin is also very helpful and friendly. We felt very comfortable there and can say that it was our best vacation yet. We highly recommend this place. -
- Patrick (8/5): -
- Patricia (8/5): - Great location to stay for wedding down the road at Carrick castle Estate.
- Bryan (9/5): A very relaxing and enjoyable stay. A beautiful peaceful location and very comfortable house. - The location of Lochwood House is absolutely stunning. Amazing situation on the banks of Loch Goil. Lots of walks from the House. .
- Paula (10/5): Beautiful location. Lovely areas to sit outside and enjoy the peace and quiet. - Delicious freshly cooked breakfast.
- Steven (9/5): Great place, great location, but very unsure about them trying to take money again - Everything was great My following day was ruined with guest house trying to take payment again from my account, even though I paid well in advance, and when I’ve queried it I have no response
- Lucas (10/5): -
- James (10/5): -
- Paul (10/5): Stunning Location - Beautiful property in a stunning location right on the shore of the loch. Marcin, the owner was very welcoming, very knowledgeable and helpful. Delicious breakfast. Very dog friendly. Access is via a single track road with a few potholes to watch for.
- Ragnar (10/5): Genuinely the best stay I have had. - Marcin was an exceptional host. Kind, knowledgable and so helpful. Gave us so many options where to go for sightseeing and food. Nothing to note. It was a perfect stay!
- Eilidh (9/5): Relaxing getaway - The house is set in a stunning area with amazing views of the loch. The living room and dining room are very nicely decorated and Marcin was welcoming and very helpful in finding places to eat and things to do. We very kindly got upgraded to a bigger room which was greatly appreciated, having the bigger bathroom made such a difference. A really lovely relaxing break, highly recommend.
- Hamish (10/5): 11/10 would stay again - the breakfasts we had in the morning were next level, honestly some of the best food i've ever eaten while away from home, The Host was happy and friendly and just a brilliant guy to speak to, very accommodating and hospitable 11/10 for the host he was amazing the room was lovely and clean and the property overall was a lovely place to be.
- Sophie (10/5): -
- Graham (9/5): - Wonderful break. Will return Not much
- Issabek (10/5): - It has an award for the most Unique Hotel in the UK. I definietly agree with this award! Lovely place. Staff was so helpful. Miss your dog already :)
- Stuart (10/5): -
- anne (10/5): -
- Patrick (10/5): - Prachtige ligging aan het meer, fantastisch mooi huis en dito kamer. Het ontbijt was het beste, lekkerste, meest uitgebreide van onze Schotlandreis. Vriendelijke gastheer. Absoluut niets
- Dougie (10/5): -
- Anne (10/5): A fantastic chill out place very special , will return . - The lovely house was amazing the view to die for and the viewpoint was amazing to sit there with a glass of wine and chill and see the seals too. There really was nothing to dislike loved all of our stay would return in a heartbeat it’s not often in these times you can rate a place and Host so highly.
- Michael (10/5): Great spot, lovely staff and comfortable and clean. - Breakfast fab cooked - selection of different things together - so different. location great- seal watching on the loch and so pretty. walking good and woods near. village not too far and great base to travel around. Staff very knowledgeable and nothing too much trouble. Not long enough.
- Malcolm (10/5): Great Scottish retreat - Location was stunning and peaceful.very welcoming host Nothing
- Peace And Quiet (9/5): The perfect place to relax. We will be back! - Absolutely stunning location, the room was beautiful and the whole propery was spotlessly clean. We were able to walk out onto decking directly from patio doors in our room. The room was tastefully furnished, bed was comfortable and the whole vibe of the house was just lovely. The breakfast we got was very nice and there was complete peace and quiet throughout our stay, which was bliss. There is a bird table in the grounds and it was just filled with birds the whole time we were there. We saw a red squirrel from our room and also saw otters and seals. If you love peace and quiet and the great outdoors, there is nothing you wouldn't enjoy about this place. Marcin was very pleasant, friendly and helpful and the dog, Storm, is just stunning - and very well behaved. Not really a complaint or "something we didn't like" as such but the wifi was patchy, particularly at night so we couldn't watch the TV but the weather was really bad which may have contributed to it. This is NOT a reflection on the property as there is nothing that can be done about that. We didn't get a cooked breakfast on the second day of our stay as the host was away but a continental breakfast selection was provided. If you don't drive or you are a real "foodie" this is not the place for you as you are literally miles from anywhere, there is no option of food within the property and no self catering facilities. If you want to eat, you need to book meals in advance with establishments that are a good bit away from the property. Wasn't an issue for us but something to watch out for if you like eating out at different places local to where you are staying or love a takeaway - there are none! Having said that, there is a reason this property has won awards! Would certainly recommend it to friends and family.
- Karen (9/5): - Stunning location, immersed in nature. Fab host. The most comfy bed ever! Loved the passion and expert knowledge our host offered with regard to the nature he works so hard to protect. Wish we could have stayed longer & seen more. Breakfast. (Sorry). I know most people would love the originality of the Polish style breakfast, but it wasn’t for us. Not keen on onion and experimental food - had hoped for standard Scottish fare. Having said that - I know our lovely host has won awards for spectacular food - we’re just fussy old-fashioned oldies!
- Ylenia María (9/5): - La ubicación y el entorno geniales. La atención del personal magnífica.
- Tamás (10/5): Gyönyörű hely, remek házigazda - A ház gyönyörű helyen fekszik, ahová egy egysávos út vezet. A házigazda nagyon kedves, a közeli faluban 7-8 perc kocsiútra van egy remek étterem. A reggeli csodálatos! Nagyon jól éreztük masgunkat
- dana (9/5): מאוד נהננו ! - הקבלת פנים הייתה מצויינת.. קבלנו ממש מסלול מפורט עם מקומות לטייל בהם חדר מאוד נעים נוף מקסים חדר קצת קטן
- Alessandro (10/5): - La gentilezza e la disponibilità di Marcin. nulla
- Annabel (5/5): I feel like 330£ for 2 nights was way too much money for the room not meeting basic expectations. - Marcin was super friendly and even waited for me to arrive after the official check in time to show me around. The location of the property is amazing! Loch view and out in nature, very quiet, very beautiful! The room and especially the bathroom and kitchen weren't super clean (also small things like kitchen towels would be useful if you do want to provide a fully functioning kitchen...), the shower doors don't work/don't close properly, the door to the room is very difficult and loud to open or close and gets stuck and I noticed on the last day that my door lock didn't even work the entire time.
- Michelle (4/5): Great location. That’s about it - Location and views were beautiful. However, overpriced. The room size was great, very clean, but lacked finesse. There was nothing Scottish about the property or food. When you travel very far to visit Scotland you expect a Scottish experience. Small things, like having Scottish source products would help improve the experience. The towels were very smelly (mould like smell). The shower was very cramped and awkward. The breakfast was bizarre, and I would encourage the establishment to add a Scottish flare to the culinary experience. Or just keep things basic to suit the general public.
- craig (9/5): Excellent place to stay. Location is brilliant, staff very friendly. - Great location, very clean, friendly staff, good value. Internet didn’t work. Communal fridge had bad food in it. Check in time of 4 o’clock is pretty late.
- Manon (10/5): - Ontzettend mooie locatie. Vanuit onze kamer met uitzicht op het meer, zagen we soms zeehonden voorbij komen. Ruime, schone kamer met een heerlijk bed (beste van de 7 accommodaties waar we deze vakantie zijn geweest). De omgeving is schitterend, mooie wandeling gemaakt op aanraden van de eigenaar Marcin. Goed ontbijt en als hoogtepunt meegenomen door Marcin op zijn boot voor een tocht op het meer, dit was echt geweldig! Onze kinderen hebben hier ook erg van genoten!
- Didier (3/5): Expecting far better. - The rating looked excellent, however we were disappointed by the frosty welcome, as if we were disrupting! This was followed by a request of breakfast time, ultimately fixed by the owner, not by us guests, so no choice, he was too busy before 9.15. The room was ok, soundproofing was lacking and we could hear other guests next door. Additionally, for a quality establishment and at the price, I expected more than cheap, scratchy, polyester bedsheets. The wifi was patchy despite requesting a better one… Altogether ok, but I don’t understand the high ratings. Reality really did not match the reviews
- Paul (5/5): -
- Elisabeth (9/5): Schönes hideaway in mitten der Natur - Es ist ein Hideaway, wirklich ruhig und schön, direkt am Loch Goil, wir haben mehrfach am Tag Seehunde gesehen, das Wasser ist herrlich kühl aber sauber, ich empfehle aber Badeschuhe wegen der Steine/Algen und eventuell ein Schwimmshirt oder einen (Neopren-)shorty für kälteempfindiche Personen. Das Zimmer war geschmackvoll eingerichtet, geräumig und funktionell, das Bad eher klein, insbesondere die Dusche. Alles ist sehr sauber. Die Anfahrt ist über eine kleine, etwas schmalere Straße, man braucht jedenfalls ein Auto, auch Lochgoilhead, der nächste Ort, ist ca. 10-15 Min entfernt mit dem Auto. Wer Ruhe und Erholung sucht, ist hier richtig. Für uns hat an sich alles gut gepasst, das warme Frühstück, das von anderen Gästen hier gelobt wird, war mir persönlich etwas zu üppig/fleischlastig, aber man muss es ja nicht essen und ich hätte mir anstelle des Plunders (Muffins, Schokorollen) Toast gewünscht, aber das ist wirklich eine Kleinigkeit, es gibt einen Kühlschrank auf der Etage, man kann sich also auch selbst Getränke oder andere Kleinigkeiten in die Unterkunft mitbringen.
- nichola (10/5): -
- Christine (8/5): Would definitely visit again - Location fabulous. Friendly staff and cleanliness excellent.
- anja (10/5): Top locatie - Geweldig uitzicht. Heel mooi huis. Fijne kamer en heerlijk bed. Kamer met zitje en uitzicht op het Loch. Goed ontbijt. Gasten lounch erg groot met heerlijke banken. En Marcin de eigenaar. Heel behulpzaam vriendelijk en altijd vol belangstelling. Probeerde je het naar je zin te maken. Geweldige zitjes buiten. Niets
- Corinna (10/5): -
- Gemma Calvert (10/5): - I booked a surprise weekend away for me and my fiancé for his birthday, somewhere remote, peaceful and full of tranquility, the lochwood guest house ticked all those things! Location was perfect, the room we had was stunning and the view was unreal ! Stunning views of Loch goil. Marcin, our host, fantastic guy ! Very welcoming, pleasant, friendly and very knowledgeable! Would make a brilliant tour guide too 🤣 We opted for a cooked breakfast on our first morning which was lovely, and quite the twist on your "traditional" cooked breakfast, the second morning we had cereal and crossiants, plenty to choose from and also a coffee machine and tea making facilities available to use too. We ate out both evenings and it was Marcin who recommended both the places we went to, again, fantastic food at both. Overall a fantastic stay and we will 100% be returning next year ! Thank you for making us feel so welcome 😊
- Robert (10/5): A truly special place, clean, stunning views, great host! I wouldn’t change a thing just amazing! - Remote, stunning views, amazing wildlife, clean facilities and great staff!!! N/a
- sophie (9/5): Parfait ! - L’emplacement est incroyable ! Le calme, l’accueil, le confort… et les phoques qui viennent nous saluer !
- Gerben (9/5): - Het bed was erg goed Het uizicht was super Het ontbijt was erg lekker Het douche had slecht warm water op de laatste dag
- MALKA (10/5): - Breakfast was more than excellent Martin gave us excellent travel plans and great restaurants recommendation.
- Paisley (10/5): We loved our stay - it suited us perfectly! - The location is wonderful, so peaceful with beautiful loch views and an abundance of wildlife, including red squirrels and even a pine martin at the feeder! Marcin has a wealth of local and wildlife knowledge, recommending local walks which were perfect for us. His interesting, substantial and beautifully cooked breakfast set us up for the day. The cabin which is available for guests to use was a relaxing space to sit with a glass of wine in the evening. We loved our stay!
- Heather (10/5): - Marvin was an amazing host (and chef!). Made our stay wonderful!!
- Abwd (8/5): - We stayed for 4 nights at Lochwood Guest House. The view by the lake was immensely beautiful. Mr. Marcin exerted all the efforts to support us and even proposed a daily comprehensive daily visit plan. The roads to the guest house were a bit of a hastle but worth the effort. Sounds of walk steps along the corridors/rooms were disturbing, particularly in the night.
- 中家 (9/5): 最高のリフレッシュ&リラックス体験‼️ - オーナーの料理とサービスが素晴らしい。 また、帰国のため、早朝出発に伴い、朝食のセットを持たせてくれた。美味しかった。 特にナシ。
- Arman (10/5): Unforgettable Experience!!! - Fantastic Stay!! Dream Location, mystical, magical and beautiful in a lovely house. The rooms are very nice and everything was super clean and comfortable. The host Marcin is one of the nicest and coolest people ever! Gave us amazing advice about the area, told us a lot of amazing stories and gave us a wonderful time! Can highly recommend, a truly special stay!
- Katreena (10/5): Highly recommend. Marcin reall looked after us and is passionate about the area - Beautifully presented and very clean guest house in a Stunning location, what more can you ask for. All fabulous
- Sophia (10/5): - Nádherný výhled na břehu jezera, klid a krásná příroda. Majitel je moc milý, vyšel nám maximálně vstříc a dal nám skvělé tipy na místa v okolí. Pokoj krásný a velmi útulný, fantastická snídaně! Rádi se sem vrátíme.
- Elaine (10/5): A Hidden Gem, peaceful, comfortable and welcoming. - A Hidden Gem – 10 Stars! I can’t recommend Lochwood Guest House in Lochgoilhead highly enough - it’s an absolute hidden gem! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with a warm welcome which made us feel instantly at home. The setting is breathtaking. Nestled on the shores of Loch Goil, the views from the guest house are beautiful and perfect for anyone looking to unwind.. Our room was spotless, beautifully decorated and incredibly comfortable. The bed was one of the best I’ve slept in, and waking up to those loch views each morning, just beautiful! Marcin, the host, was exceptional- friendly, attentive, and full of helpful advice about the area. He made us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we arrived and nothing was too much trouble. His warm hospitality added so much to our stay and made the experience even more memorable. It was lovely to chat to him about the local wildlife. Lochwood is ideally located. It’s the perfect base for exploring Lochgoilhead and further. This is definitely the best Guest House we have stayed at. We look forward to returning in the future.
- Nynke (9/5): -
- Maureen (10/5): Excellent - Location perfect for where we needed to be the following morning. Would return even it wasn’t for work. Everything… Welcome, location, breakfast all was just amazing.
- Sandra (10/5): Had amazing time, everything you wish for at a B&B is there. - Hidden Gem, spectacular view, amazing hosts which make you feel at home immediately. Re-charge and unwind. Clean rooms decorated with charme. Fantastic outdoor and indoor common spaces. Exceptional breakfast. Nothing!
- Kirra (10/5): - Stunning views, super friendly and lovely owner who was eager to chat and share interesting information about the area when we asked but also equally respected our space and quiet as well. He made delicious unique breakfast as well
- Florence (9/5): - L'emplacement est superbe ,calme .La vue est splendide. L'accueil de Martin ,notre hôte a ete particulièrement chaleureux .Il a fait le maximum pour rendre notre séjour plus qu'agréable. Tout était parfait
- Moira (9/5): Fab host and excellent breakfast - Excellent breakfast every morning Marcin exceeded himself. Marcin the host was very knowledgeable about the area and gave us good tips of where to visit and how to get around the area. If we are ever back in this area we would def stay at Lockwood again.
- Patrick (10/5): - Das Frühstück war sehr gut mit schöner Aussicht auf das Loch. Marcin war sehr hilfsbereit und hat sich total bemüht uns unseren Aufenthalt so schön wie möglich zu machen. Er hat uns eine tolle Tour für unseren Tag empfohlen. Etwas holprige Anfahrt, aber alles kein Problem.
- uday (10/5): -
- Marc (10/5): Geweldig! - Fantastische locatie. Mooie ligging aan het meer. Ruime schone kamer met uitzicht op de bergen en het meer. Marcin is een geweldige host met goede tips en een heerlijk ontbijt Niks
- rebecca (9/5): It’s a beautiful house in gorgeous location ! - The view was amazing ! The breakfast lovely and the staff very accommodating . The little village of Lochgoilhead is not a quaint Scottish town but needs some TLC.
- Susan (8/5): -
- Houcine (10/5): Best stay - Best Guest House on our trip ! The house in itself was really nice, the view was incredible and Marcin was the best host we had during our trip. He gaves us amazing advice and tips regarding the must see/must do in the area. The breakfast was amazing too! Thank you Marcin! Absolutely nothing
- walter (8/5): Schöne, ruhige Lage, sehr netter und unkomplizierter Vermieter. - Lage direkt am See. Vermieter sehr nett und unkompliziert. Gibt sehr gute und leicht zu verstehende Ausflugstipps. Frühstück das umfangreichste und "schönste" auf unserer Schottland -Tour. Duschwasser ist etwas wenig (ist aber beim Gesamtpaket meckern auf hohem Niveau).
- Rachel (8/5): -
- Birgit (9/5): - Wir wurden sehr freundlich empfangen, betreut und zum Frühstück bekocht. Ein traumhafter Blick aufs Wasser und die Berge. Mehrfach konnte ich Robben durchs Zimmerfenster beobachten. Sehr familiäre Atmosphäre. Die Zufahrt zum Haus ist etwas abenteuerlich (wenig befestigte Singleroad ohne wirklichen Ausweichplatz).
- Neil (10/5): - Simly a magical place. Marcin is an incredible host, so welcoming and kind. He puts his heart and soul into Lockwood and making sure all his guests have a brilliant experience. The wildlife around this beautiful house is just wonderful. From the resident Robin feeding from my hand to seals and porpoises in the bay and a multitude of birds, not to mention the red squirrels, it's an animal lovers dream. The room was spectacular with the perfect view over the loch, and very dog friendly 🐾🐾. The house is spotless and Marcin provides a very tasty breakfast and made me superb plant based one specially. Great decking place and lodge to sit outside with BBQ for guest use and direct access to the loch for swimming. Less than a minute drive to The Boatshed cafe and 5 min drive from Lochgoilhead. We cannot wait to come back. Marcin and his team have great plans for developments too including a Sauna and yoga pod so watch this space 🩵
- Frank (10/5): Kann man gerne empfehlen - Die ruhige Lage war sehr schön. Es wurde sich um alles gekümmert und man ist auf die Wünsche der Gäste eingegangen. Besonders nett und hilfreich waren die morgendlichen Informationen für Touren. Die Internet-Verbindung war sehr sehr langsam….
- anita (9/5): Great host in a beautiful situated manor. - Total stay was formidable, a great host who made a delicious breakfast, the best we had in Scotland, he’s also very helpful in advising you where to go or eat, making a reservation for the restaurant. The B&B is located at the lake, a beautiful spot where you can relax outside or inside in the well decorated interior. It’s spotless 👏🏻. Can’t think of anything
- Deborah (8/5): - Beautiful location and views. A bit too remote for our trip. Roads were narrow and tricky. Would be perfect for a longer stay if your goal was to relax.
- Andrew (10/5): -
- Steven (6/5): Lovely Views, Room, Facilities, Pity the staff let it down…. - Location, room, view, everything apart from the food First hotel, or B&B that I have ever been in my life (I had stayed in over 500 over the last 10 years) where they don’t ask you what hot food you want for breakfast - you don’t get a choice, no menu - they just give you whatever they want to give you. Found that very weird……. Most of the stuff on the plate I didn’t like salad, garnish, other things not related to breakfast aswell - so for that reason only - I won’t be staying there again……
- Andrea (9/5): Sehr schön - Traumhafte Lage direkt am Wasser. Morgens wenn das Wasser glatt ist, kann man Seehunde direkt vom Zimmer aus sehen. Martin hat sehr gute und individuelle Tips für die Ausflüge und auch Strecke zum fahren.
- Stephen (9/5): Thoroughly enjoyed our stay - Great breakfast; lovely large room overlooking the loch.

- Anna (9/5): Idyllic, secluded, dog-friendly guest house - Wonderful. Idyllic. Very dog friendly - the owner's son even threw stones into the loch for my dog. Very comfortable bed, nice room, and the owner was informative and helpful. Even saw a seal! Nothing. The only observation, and definitely not a complaint, was the breakfast. While delicious and perfect, they'd have saved money by asking what we wanted in our fry up rather than giving us the full works, so some food was left over.
- Paul (10/5): Da würden wir wieder hin gehen - Täglich individuell neu gestaltetes Frühstück, ruhiger Platz am Ende der Welt. Sehr freundlicher Hausherr, der uns für die weitere Reiseplanung wertvolle Tipps zusammengestellt hat. Wer Ruhe will, ein Platz zum länger bleiben. Nix
- Jacqueline (9/5): - Everyone, it's absolutely amazing...high recommended. Marcin such a wonderful nice and very welcoming host.
- Iain (10/5): - Beautiful setting, exceptional host, perfectly clean room!
- Hermann (10/5): - Super Lage direkt am Lochgoil, schönes altes Herrenhaus, liebevoll eingerichtet, sehr netter Quartiergeber, hatte tolle Ausflugstipps parat, ausgezeichnetes Frühstück, täglich variiert, das Beste das wir bei unserer Rundreise hatten, wir genossen unseren Aufenthalt sehr.
- Simon (10/5): Quiet hideaway on the Loch - Stunning location on banks of the Loch and Marcin was extremely helpful with local information and cooked up a great Polish style breakfast Nothing
- Cameron (10/5): -
- sonia (9/5): Outstanding location - Host Location stunning Nothing
- Michael (10/5): Sehr schöner und erholsamer Aufenthalt - Seelage, Ruhe, Aussensitzplätze, Informationen Zufahrt über SingleTrack und steiler Schotterweg
- parker (10/5): An absolute treat. - The views are amazing we saw seals from our bedroom window which had a panoramic view of the Loch. Our host Marcin was exceptionally friendly and helpful a really great place to stay. Can't think of anything the area is more remote than some of the lochs but that makes it even more special.
- Fulop (10/5): Very special place to stay - Location is absolutely amazing, we saw seals in the water several times from the property!! Very relaxing atmosphere with a great host. Our Cavapoo dog was also allowed to stay with us which is a big plus. Highly recommended. N/A
- Alan (8/5): -
- Sabine (10/5): Ein toller Ort zum Entspannen und Natur genießen - Unglaubliche Lage, absolute Ruhe und freundliche Gastgeber.
- Jodi (10/5): Best stay ever in a gorgeous place! - The house is beautiful (and ok to use), especially the living room which has an amazing view of the lake. The owner (Marcin?) was so helpful and all of his suggestions were great. Breakfast, cooked by Marcin, is incredible and healthy! It was quiet, comfy and had everything you would want or need! Nothing.

- Douglas (8/5): A beautiful location - The guesthouse was very comfortable and was set at the side of the loch, with stunning views in very private grounds. Our host, Macin was a lovely guy, who was very warm, helpful and knowledgeable about all the area had to offer. nothing was too much trouble. My only complaint was that we were served a prescribed plate of food, described as a plant based breakast. My knowledge of a plant based meal is limited, however I am quite sure iit should not have included salami, bacon, sausage and eggs. There was also a plethora of plant based food on this plate, which I found quite "off putting." I think in a Bed & Breakfast establishment in Scotland, one of the treats of such a trip is the breakfast. I was disappointed and feel that a menu of choice should be offered to all guests.
- Daniel (10/5): Absolute gem! Beautiful - stunning views and so friendly an absolute brilliant stay - Absolutely beautiful The most stunning thing / scenery i have ever witnessed. Beautiful Guest House - View to die for!! Marchin - host was so welcoming and helpful very friendly and gave some excellent advice on where to go and what to view. Room was stunning and so Comfy. I will definitely return. Nothing it was stunning
- vivien (10/5): Would recommend this to everyone who wanted to stay in this area - fabulous luxury with amazing views - Location was out of this world House was exquisite Spotless and comfortable Breakfast was amazing Would loved the evening meal there - but understand why there isn’t
- Maximiliane (10/5): - The most beautiful place to stay, right at the Loch, fantastic breakfast, so much wildlife to observe, comfortable beds and the best thing about the place: the host Marcin. He was so welcoming, had great recommendations and planned a beautiful route for us for when we had to leave and continue our trip!
- Damerow (9/5): - Beautiful location, great atmosphere, amazing home made breakfast and Marcin, the host was absolutely fantastic! He gave us plenty of tips on what to visit and made our short stay very special.
