After a day on the bus to go to Loch Ness with noisy people all day, we happened here.
Tripadvisor Top complaints
After giving my booking name for the second time we were finally seated at a table for two set awkwardly next to the bar where there was lots of noise from the crowd waiting for their tables and from the bar staff making drinks, this was upsetting my step daughter so I asked if we could move towards the back of the restaurant away from the noise of the bar and the crowd surrounding it.
