The Whispering Pine Lodge enjoys a wonderful waterfront location on Loch Lochy, where many guests appreciate the loch view from their rooms, some of which feature a terrace overlooking the water. The dining area also offers amazing views, and the restaurant features tasty cocktails and a menu including Indian cuisine and vegan options.

a highland dream

loch view red rose sweet treat
our room had an unbelievable view of the loch. the red rose and chocolates for valentine's day. the little treat waiting for us when we returned to our room after dinner always brought a smile to my face.
the menu felt quite limited, and i think a specials board would make the experience even better staying multiple nights.

forest view loch view pebble beach dated room missing air con wet-room bathroom
The hotel location has a forest view. I loved the loch view. The pebble beach was dreamy. The rooms feature a terrace overlooking the water.
The room was dated. The hotel did not have air con. I experienced quite warm conditions. The bathroom was a wet-room, so it got soaking after a shower.
