The shower dripped all night,I didnt call the maintenance number because it was so late, I put a towel under the shower to stop the noise and emailed twice, when I didnt hear from them to to technical problems on the website I was told I should have called them on the night. I had asked for a room with a bath due to the fact I had a sore back and actually told reception I would not be eating, but have a bath and go to bed. Not the service I would expect from a hotel of this standard, stayed twice, a colleague has also stayed, not again

Poor directions to the property lead to unnecessary bag hauling, but this was apparently due to a ā€˜missedā€™ email. That said the set up of the Mini Manors and planned facilities are very good

Achnagairn is a must near Inverness. The restaurant Table Manors is fabulous and staff for the lodges couldn't be more professional and kind. You have got to stay here.

Secluded private venue. Well presented
Unable to select any TV channel on our first evening. On dual headed shower, no function from main one, lever knob fell off. Faults instantly dealt with when we notified their maintainence gent. Otherwise, it was a good experience.

Achnagairn is in the middle of nowhere
On arrival at 5pm we were told that the restaurant was full and as a result had to go to a local pub for dinner. Our room (Le Jaune) was a drive away from the main building on the estate. The room was tiny and there wasn't even room to unpack a suitcase - and room only big enough for one small chair so my son had to sit on the bed. In addition the room windows are low level and onto the entrance to property, so zero privacy with the curtains open. Breakfast was mediocre at best and choice of fruit was poor. Lodges are very disappointing and grossly overpriced I feel that I was misled by the website.

The grounds are absolutely beautiful! Staff is extremely helpful and pleasant. The lodges have a fully equipped kitchen, where you can bring your own groceries to cook meals if you wish to do so. Unfortunately, there was a freak heat wave that made our lodge extremely hot and uncomfortable the first night, they brought us a fan the next day and it was still hot, but not uncomfortable. I imagine in regular Scottish weather, the lodge would be amazing! Overall, it was a great stay and we will be back!

Fine, but not luxurious
The setting is lovely, but this is not a luxurious hotel. The room was simple, there was no air-conditioning and the small windows did not permit air flow, which made the night uncomfortably hot.
