"Had a standard room with 2 single beds. Beds very comfortable , air con good and slept well. Only disappointment was eggs at breakfast, we didn't arrive until 9.15 but the fried eggs and scrambled were dried out. The chef poked about with them as did 2 members of management but none seemed to realise that the fried eggs in particular were inedible and more akin to frisbees. Was a shame as all the other hot items were very good."
"Stayed for one night here with a friend . I cannot fault either staff or hotel as we had a lovely time . Food and drinks were lovely .
If I had to have one downside it was the £25 you need to pay for use of the pool and spa facilities for 2hours .
We did use this and it was beautiful but I still feel it’s a bit much .
But a beautiful hotel in a fabulous location and staff couldn’t do enough for you ."
"My wife and I booked our honeymoon for a couple of days at the beautiful Duck Bay Hotel. It honestly was one of the nicest hotels we’ve ever stayed at.
We booked a Suite and got room 1 overlooking the incredibly scenic waterfront of Loch Lomond. As soon as we walked through the door, the view made us speechless, you really just have to experience it! We didn’t want to leave the room, it was so fun staying in bed looking out the window at all the swimmers, paddleboarders, boats, and jet skis riding up and down the loch! The double bed was huge, very wide, comfy and not just two single beds attached together (which annoys us at other hotels!).
Dinner at the restaurant was brilliant too! My wife had the highland wagyu burger and I had the fillet steak, very tasty. For dessert we had the panna cotta and I had the cookie dough skillet with biscoff icecream (you need to try this, it was so good I ordered another one the next night!). Service with a smile, speedy, chatty, they made the dinner a great experience.
After dinner we relaxed in the Duck Bay Marina and had drinks outside in the sun next to the water. We ended the night taking some pictures on the pier where you feel like you’re swimming in Loch Lomond.
We had an absolutely amazing time at the Duck Bay Hotel and are actually planning another trip for next year… we’re just hoping room 1 is available again!! 😂"
"We loved our stay. Clean and very large room with extra seating area and large bathroom. Very clean and the staff was so friendly and helpful. We walked the grounds and saw some seals swimming. We ordered an afternoon tea and had a little car trouble so we called to let them know we’d miss it and they packed up all the food for us to take with us the next day. So thoughtful. The bar and restaurant were great. The grounds and views are beautiful. It’s a little bit of a drive from anything else we’d planned to see in Scotland but worth it to slow down and enjoy the scenic grounds and castle. I highly recommend it. Stay at 2 nights to get the full benefit. One night isn’t enough to get the full castle away from it all feeling."
