10/10 Excellent
"Stayed in Lomond Lodge 3. It was compact but so we'll designed it didn't feel small at all. Lovely new accomodation and facilities, homely and thoughtful decoration. The Harry Potter theme was fun but tasteful and not overbearing. You could definitely stay there even if you weren't fans, the kids are not massive Harry Potter fans but were delighted none the less! Everything you could possibly need, very well equipped. The garden and balcony were lovely (even in the rain! ). Location was good. Arisaig and the Crofters Rest pub restaurant 5m by car, was a nice meal."
