Guest Reviews

Joanna (10/5): - Stunning views and lovely property, very helpful staff
ANTON (10/5): - Excellent
ANTON (10/5): - Absolutely gorgeous view and grounds. Staff was excellent at every interaction.
Sidney Darrow (10/5): Secluded and romantic getaway - We stayed in two different rooms. The first room was on the top floor and very small with a slanted ceiling and the bed was a small double bed so we weren’t that comfortable. The second night we stayed in one of the bigger deluxe rooms on the first floor, which was much nicer. The dinner in the restaurant was delicious and the service was excellent.
Can (10/5): Cozy - Very cozy hotel by the water. Nice, clean, comfortable rooms; if a bit small.
Jillian (10/5): - Beautiful property and excellent food and service
Kathryn (10/5): - Mike, behind the bar, was so knowledgeable. He helped make our evening enjoyable trying new whiskeys and sharing his expertise. Breakfast and breakfast service was wonderful.
Verified traveler (10/5): Lochside weekend stay - Lovely old grand building in an a beautiful setting- lochside with views to beat any! Friendly staff, great meal. A great location to explore some unique countryside from. Large enough to feel like a well equipped hotel, but small enough to feel exclusive and special. Older room, but felt authentic and comfortable.
Lincoln (10/5): Too Short - It was practically perfect. Loved it. The lodge is such a lovely place with a superb setting. Delicious food. Which we’d stayed a week.
Verified traveler (10/5): Lovely old Hunting Lodge. - Lovely old Hunting Lodge, downstairs sitting rooms and restaurant well appointed. Our room was nice although only view of the back gardens and Falconry and the room was on the small side. Next time I would upgrade to a larger room with a view of the Loch. The property the Hotel is situated in is stunning for gardens and views. Meal at Restaurant was A Grade and would highly recommend the food.
Nadine (6/5): - This Is an overpriced hotel. This is not a 4 star hotel at all, so the rooms, hotel conditions and food served do not match the price you pay for. Most of the rooms are small and some are really not very accessible with suitcases. There are more options around that have a much better ratio quality/price
Murray (10/5): - A first class historic property in a beautiful location. A very imaginative chef produced dishes that were a joy to look at and had flavour combinations that were unique and very delicious.
Paul (10/5): - A unique and special property with the most amazing views. The accommodations are first rate and the staff exceptional. The bar an food are fantastic!
Francesca (8/5): - Lovely old property with sweeping views of the water. Room was comfortable. Had dinner and breakfast at the lodge for our stay. I thought the property was a bit pricey overall. But service and location was ideal for our journey.
Paul (10/5): - Very nice experience. Was a great property with nice people Restaurant was very good enjoyed our dinner rooms are good comfortable beds and pillows would defiantly stay again
Rhonda (6/5): - Well this is the first poor review I’ve ever written. The room rate is reasonable based on the overall hotel but our room and the bed was very small room compared with all our other experiences in the highlands this week. Our bathroom looked clean but smell of faeces was disgusting, We had pre-booked dinner and stayed for breakfast it was very expensive and poor value. I agree with other travellers that the dining experience is awkward and the dinner staff exacerbated this. We ate late due to availability of spaces and the staff reset tables for breakfast whilst we were eating our main course. This made us feel rushed and burdensome. One staff member serving drinks etc wasn’t welcoming and his manner aloof (maybe he was just having a bad day!) Again stark contrast to the other hotels we’d stayed during our week in the Highlands. Having said all that this is a stunning house, the views from the hotel and the main communal rooms are beautiful. We were able to watch seals from the lawns. Overall though, disappointing I’m afraid
Verified traveler (10/5): - A lovely lodge hotel in a beautiful setting. Plentiful parking and spacious rooms. Nice lounge and snooker room to relax if you didn’t want to stay in your room. If arriving by night, it’s hard to spot the hotel sign at the side of the road so it’s easy to drive straight past. The hotel restaurant serves nicely presented and beautifully cooked local produce. The menu is a little limited and pricey but the staff were friendly.
Chantel (10/5): - Thank you for the wonderful hospitality, the host was very welcoming and was very considerate of our 7 year old, he arranged for a special meal for him after we arrived. Also, thank you Allister for the great drinks and banter!
Linda (6/5): - Bedroom, bed and bathroom spacious and comfortable but still overpriced for accommodation. Evening meal very poor and did not live up to description on website at all. Food is supposed to be local and in season and therefore reason why menu choice very limited. However, one of the three main courses on offer was pheasant which is not legally in season until October 1st. Therefore it must either have been frozen from last season or roadkill! Would not return as food and drink overpriced as well as the accommodation.
Perminder (10/5): - Perfect loch-side location, and easy access to walks/sites
Perminder (10/5): - .
Geoff (10/5): - Amazing hotel, beautiful food, friendly staff. Only one problem... we didn't stay longer.
Lynne (10/5): December visit to Shieldaig Lodge - Wonderful building and setting! The room was warm, clean and comfortable and the staff friendly and helpful.
William (10/5): - A really warm comfortable and inviting place to stay and explore. Wonderful staff and chef. They cared for us with genuine hospitality. Wish we could have stayed much longer.
Carol (10/5): -
Robin (10/5): - The property was beautiful, situated in a stunning location. The staff was courteous, friendly and helpful, and the food was the best we have had on this trip! We would absolutely return to these accommodations anytime we have the opportunity!
Stephen (10/5): NC500 last night treat - Last night of our NC500 adventure and what a treat we had. Staff were so attentive and friendly too
Michael (10/5): Two night stay at Sheildaig Lodge Hotel - Room with a fantastic view over the bay. Great food. Huge whisky and gin selection. Good walks to Red Point and the crash site memorial.
Kirstie (8/5): Disappointing - It was okay. Small room, which got too hot. Open window helped. Bathroom had a fan which didn’t work and a tap was unsecured. The food was disappointing. We spent one night here and had high hopes. Unfortunately we went to much better hotels and so this one seemed poor in comparison. It was expensive though which makes it all the more disappointing.
MaryandJonny (8/5): - Lovely, quaint building from the outside in untouched, serene and beautiful Gairloch. Complete silence on the Loch. The perfect getaway for those looking to escape the city. Service in hotel quirky which is fine, but not necessarily what you expect when paying £300 a night and £110 for dinner (not including drinks). Room was fairly basic for £300. Basic amenities and old, antique-like furniture. Sound proofing a real problem (room 9) with sounds from the next door rooms (7 and 8) and the stairwell clearly audible throughout the night. Overall, an enjoyable stay but overpriced. Recommend kayaking with Gairloch Kayaks when you visit.
NatalieL (10/5): - Was lovely. Staff were lovely and quality of food and drinks were excellent. Accommodation was good quality.
lorraine (10/5): Best in a long time - Superb time, great location, staff excellent, food excellent, we will return.
Verified traveler (8/5): - We had a great welcome, and the food was excellent, but our room in the former servants quarters was snug, and lacked a fridge. Nice bar and lounge areas, and the loch view must be great when it’s not raining. #NC500
Eun Young (8/5): Perfect place to relax and chill for few days.. - The view and surroundings were serene and beautiful.
Alexander (10/5): Perfect peaceful location - Used Shieldaig as 1 night stopover during our tour of Scotland. This place is so lovely and there’s so much to do in the immediate are that I wish we’d booked 2 nights.
John (10/5): Incredible - I booked this hotel last minute as I was driving through Scotland. It is an absolutely incredible hotel. The staff is outstanding. The hotel itself is old, but well maintained, and really quite cozy. I missed dinner, and wish I hadn’t, because much of the food is sourced right there on the estate. The breakfast was excellent. The bar has so many whiskeys and gins that it’s pretty overwhelming. There is so much to do on the grounds from hiking to falconry. I would say this hotel is definitely worth going out of the way for. I’m definitely coming back for an extended stay in the future.
Verified traveler (6/5): - The building is beautiful with extraordinary views. So many acres for hiking. The room was large and the bed comfortable. The bathroom was large as well but the shower was a little weird (hard to regulate) and the water was a little yellowish.
Verified traveler (8/5): - Exceptional service. The staff couldn't have been more helpful.
Erin (8/5): - The property is beautiful and the lounges are cozy. The matttress was comfortable, but we did not have the promised goose down duvet and the pillows were huge and hard. The bathroom was freezing and the shower had no water pressure and only got lukewarm. With only half the hotel booked, I was surprised not have had our request for a room with a tub fulfilled. (We booked a room category of which some rooms had tubs and some had showers.) I can see having a very nice experience here in nicer weather and in one of the rooms overlooking the loch.
Verified traveler (8/5): piece and quiet - It was wonderful experience to stay a used to hunting lodge.
Robin (10/5): Lovely place to stay - Shieldaig lodge is a fabulous place to stay for adults wanting some peace and quiet. Rooms were not large and the bathroom was the smallest I’ve ever seen (aeroplane toilet size), but the staff were great as was the location, the food, the restaurant, the dining room etc. we even went and chatted to the falconer who had some lovely birds .Fabulous place.
Verified traveler (10/5): - A beautiful hotel with a fantastic location. We really enjoyed our stay.
Julie (10/5): Well done!!! - Sheildag Lodge was the perfect place to spend my birthday while my Husband and I were driving the NC500. What an amazing small and personable Hotel with great staff including but not limited to Ismet, Charmaine, Alister, & Sean. We felt very spoiled for a couple of days. The food was great. We especially enjoyed the Falconry session with Garreth and the ever changing views of the bay from our room windows. We will always remember this stay and will most likely be back!
David (10/5): Quiet and relaxing - Small hotel Friendly staff Good food Quiet settings fantastic location
Chris (10/5): - Immaculate room. Whole place in a shooting lodge decor that is wonderful. No phone signal and Wi-fi a bit slow, but marvellous place with the lawn down to the bay
Verified traveler (10/5): Loch front property! - From the moment I entered this lodge, I was thrilled with everything! Dining was exceptional...loch front room was exquisite...and they have a falconry center with at least 6 falcons and several owls and a young bright engaging falconer!
Verified traveler (6/5): Couple - One Night Stay - Quiet, relaxed and nice grounds. Room size and view does not justify price per night.
Verified traveler (8/5): - Stylish hotel with lovely public rooms and nice restaurant, let down a little by the small attic room that we were given that was not worth the £200 cost. In fairness to the hotel. When I pointed this out they refunded £30, so I would recommend the hotel but ask for.abetter room next time.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Lovely, traditional hotel in Scottish Highlands.
Stoonman (10/5): - What a great hotel. Small enough so that the guest matters. Excellent food, good location and friendly staff.
Ingegjerd (10/5): - Amazing
Verified traveler (8/5): Quiet romantic get away - Hotel staff was terrific and helped a lot as I had caught a cold and needed remedies. They gave great directions to a pharmacist who fixed me up. The location is terrific and the drives around the area were scenic and enjoyable. My husband did the local hike while the hotel staff offered me hot toddies to cure my cough. Dinner in the hotel restaurant was awesome and should be a planned part of any stay.
Ann (10/5): Lovely hotel overlooking Loch - We spent 2 nights at here. Our room was a little gloomy (small window) and unfortunately didn't overlook the Loch, but the hotel was lovey and stylish in a Scottish, traditional sort of way. The room was very comfortable and clean and to a very high standard. The food was excellent and the staff very friendly and helpful. We messed up with our booking and they helped us out to find another room for the third day. Would definitely stay there again
Fred (10/5): A Magical Victorian Hunting Dream! - Loved our short time at this dream of a place. Stunning views and delicious food matched with good taste and even a falconry, made for a fantasy stay.
Carl (10/5): hidden gem - Room was very comfortable and the breakfast excellent.. The highlight was the raptor demonstration and discussion of the nature and character of these marvelous birds. A treat!
