The Lodge on Loch Lomond Hotel ReviewSurrounded by mountain, loch, and woodland, you can live in Scottish country-house style and take in panoramic views of legendary Loch Lomond. But that's not the only reason to stay here. This lodging, much improved in recent years, offers tasteful bedrooms and numerous comforts. The executive rooms are set up for wheelchair access, and each contains a two-person sauna. The hotel will also arrange local activities, including salmon fishing and private charter cruises, as well as horseback riding. The fine restaurant is yet another excellent reason to stay here, or at least to drop in for an evening. It uses only the finest and freshest local ingredients, serving individually prepared meals that are the area's best. The accommodating staff makes this a relaxed, comfortable place. Main courses might include pan-fried venison loin with haggis skirlie, or speared tiger prawns with chili and garlic nut-brown butter. There is a wide selection of Aberdeen Angus beef priced according to weight, and lobster is served in a multitude of ways. For something really Scottish, try roast pheasant with bacon-braised barley and a whisky cream sauce. Lighter options include a burger, fish and chips, pasta, and pizza. The quality of the food is excellent, matched by panoramic views of the loch. Reservations are recommended and can be made by calling tel. 01436/860-201. Main courses are £12 to £25. The restaurant is open daily noon to 2:30pm and 6 to 9:30pm. Facilities: Note: This information was accurate when it was published, but can change without notice. Please be sure to confirm all rates and details directly with the companies in question before planning your trip.

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
