We wanted a change from house parties at new year and I was a bit unsure what to expect. St Fillans is very quaint but nothing to do. I prefer Killin as a place to stay but wish I could move this hotel there:
Staff - we have a 10 & 7 year old and even though there was not many kids they made them very welcome....it seemed like a personal touch we got and they could not do enough for us from the Stefan & Peter the chefs, Lynn & crew serving us and Chris the barman. This made our break.
Accomodation - We had Chalet 1, right across from the rear door and was a Beatles lodge though they are all the same. Couldn't get parked outside it but not a major issue. Very 70's but clean and a cosy feel...though when it was freezing outside we needed the blankets at night (not an issue)
Food - This was a lesson..Patridge, Pigeon, Venison, Monkfish.....and they also provided bangers and mash for wife which was alos perfect. I spoke to all the guests and they all loved the food.

Overall - Might even consider again next new year but i'd go back as a couple in summer when I could use the loch more or bag a couple of monroes. Thoroughly recommend this hotel to chill out (this is there goal) and enjoy some nice food (and highland hospitality). Go for it

Fantastic location. The hotels looks over Loch Earn with panoramic views of the snow covered hills. The room was spacious and comfortable but some general maintainance would be beneficial, esp double glazing. Staff were very friendly and the food was lovely, although we didn't eat in the dining room, only the Bistro. Downside, we had no tv for the entire time of our visit due to the high winds and if you have a pet allergy don't stay here as it's a pet friendly hotel.

Room 11 has a beautiful view but does need updating. The windows are in poor condition unfortunately and the bathroom has a hideous plastic blind for a shower screen.

We had dinner, bed and breakfast at the Four Seasons meeting up with friends we hadn't seen for ages. You can't beat the location and we loved standing on the jetty watching the ever changing skies, the hills and beautiful loch. The cabins are quirky and have a certain 70s feel. If you're a Beatles fan, you can choose the ones they stayed in. We were intrigued by the chain hanging from the ceiling of the second bedroom.... Later found out it's to set up the bunks!

Dinner was wonderful as was breakfast. The most amazing and decadent porridge I've ever had involving double cream and Drambuie. Yum! The staff were extremely friendly, efficient and helpful. My friend really appreciated being able to bring her dog too.
