Nice and clean place with a lake nearby. Staff was very accommodating even before we checked-in. We stayed in a room good for 3 people and it was cramped. The beds squeeked a lot too. For the price, we expected something better... but then we were just there for a couple nights, so it was ok. Perhaps the cabins would have been nicer for longer stays.

We stayed in a family room . 2 singles and 1 bunk for 4 people. Insh Hall. Warm shower, un-suite WC rather cramped but clean with fresh towels. Hospitable and welcoming staff, kids enoyed the complementary room hot choc and caramel bars ! Beds very comfortable as was the option of pillows. Spacious communal mutli use room with table tennis, TV, film and board games corner, dining tables with hot water, fridge and even a microwave. Location was fantastic, 2 mins stroll to the outdoor Insh activity centre and Loch view all day restaurant. Free zipwires and play areas for big kids and small! Recommend the Kayaks but have a change of clothes (waist down) with shoes or hire a wet suit! Will be back for more activities including the onsite dry snow slope. Carpark was safe and away from public moving traffic.

Overpriced

For nearly $100 my sister and I stayed one night in a camp dorm room with bunk beds and a shared bathroom. I could hear the people in the adjacent room snoring because of how thin the walls were in our 6 m2 closet sized room. The hotel is a bit retro, which is fine, but for the price it needs some updating. Joke's on me I guess since I booked such a small room at that price point.

Not worth the money. Go elsewhere.

The room didn’t match the pic of the room on the site. The room resembled an old youth hostel room with a few soft furnishings. The rooms wasn’t clean. Hair, and stains abound. Noisy too, (after 11pm) not ideal for families with younger children.

Pros: the view was breathtaking, the restaurant was amazing, the activities were amazing, the location was near lots of attractions, the price was decent. Cons: the room was not comfortable, the mattress was firm, the toilet was very poor (very very outdated; must be renovated), the shower was not working properly.

Reception only opened 4-5pm. Pictures a bit decieving as accommodation is not in the same location as The BoatHouse but up the hill. Our family room was just approximately 11ft wide, and long enough for a double bed, a small space to walk around, then the bunk beds. A shower room was also in this space.

Staff did ok but overall lack of menu options and closed bar due to no license meant we had to go elsewhere and there was nothing nearby. Ok for 1 night but noted after day 1 in the evening as nothing to do. Water sports were limited and there seemed little creativity in providing activities for customers.

Great place and great breakfast

Had a great stay. There were 2 adults and 3 children in the same room. Room was clean, comfy and just what we needed for a great price. Staff were very friendly and helpful even though it was busy. Breakfast for the price it was, was great.

Great HQ for outdoor adventures

We planned a weekend adventure up to the Cairngorms for some watersports and walking. Insch Hall was the ideal setting, being situated on the same site as the Loch Insch Outdoor Centre. We had access to several activities and on-site dining at the centre boathouse. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Reception was straight forward upon arrival. The only thing was that others staying in and around the building caused some noise disruptive late at night, but we realise this likely isn't the norm and we might've just been unlucky on this visit.

Vom Personal haben wir niemanden gesehen, Rezeption war nur eine Stunde offen und wir sind später angereist und früher gefahren. Abwicklung war unkompliziert, auf schriftliche Nachrichten habe ich leider meist keine Antwort erhalten, telefonisch in der Rezeptionszeit war die Erreichbarkeit gegeben und ich bekam ansonsten alle Infos rechtzeitig. Zimmer war sehr klein aber durch die hohen Betten konnten wir die Koffer trotzdem gut verstauen und sind zurechtgekommen. Kaffee und Tee im Zimmer vorhanden und großer Aufenthaltsraum mit kleiner Küche, Tischtennis und anderen Spielen. Betten waren sehr bequem!! Allerdings alles sehr abgewohnt, klein, verwinkelt und leider ziemlich muffig gerochen (besonders im Aufenthaltsraum nach abgestandenem Essen). Aber für kleines Budget auf jeden Fall eine gute Wahl.
