The Cruachan is designed with a traditional Scottish Highland façade and whilst the hotel has been and continues to be sympathetically upgraded and modernised internally to provide all modern comforts it has not lost its original character. The hotel has an enviable location overlooking Loch Linnhe and beyond the loch to the Morvern Hills. Guests can sit on the terrace outside the hotel in the summer watching the boats on the loch and enjoying a quiet drink.
