The hotel is close to Trossachs National Park, offering nature trails and scenic outdoor activities. The promenade walk into Dunoon town centre takes about 40 minutes along the flat seafront.

“The sea views from the rooms here are quite something, offering a clear vantage point for the comings and goings of the ferries across the Firth of Clyde. While the building carries its history with a certain, shall we say, venerable air, the warmth of the staff, particularly Dillon, makes it a genuinely welcoming stay. It's a place that clearly has character, felt in everything from the comfortable beds to the hearty breakfasts.”
