Glen Clova Hotel & Luxury Lodges

Recommended

Pros: The staff were great - being cheerful, welcoming and ready to help. I had a hearty meal in the bar, which was warm and cosy.

Cons: Nothing to report here.

I would stay again

Pros: I was staying for work. A bride was getting ready here so also stayed for convenience. I was arriving late. A lot later than the hotel was open for travellers arriving and they were kind enough to leave my key out for me.

Cons: The staff are really helpful, and the property was clean

Pros: Stayed in the hotel, room was wonderful: clean, spacious and welcoming.

Stunning home from home in this beautiful Glen.

Pros: Beautiful location - wonderful outlook - homely and comfortable.

Pros: The location is amazing and the scenery is incredible. The rooms were very nice and spacious. Both the restaurant and the breakfast was good.

Cons: The road to drive there is not great, but just take your time and it will be fine.

Pros: Absolutely gorgeous food! Comfy bed. Friendly staff. Somewhere to park my motorbike out the way from the road. Would recommend for bikers needing a place to stay whilst travelling. Lovely atmosphere and breakfast

Pros: Cosy welcome in a fabulous location with great walks from the doorstep.

Lovely peaceful hotel in a stunning location.

Pros: Excellent breakfast. Excellent location if you want to be in the middle of nowhere. Half hour drive to Kirriemuir the nearest town. Excellent evening meals.

Cons: Communication can be improved. Glen Clova is in a poor signal area for Wi-Fi. I could only communicate with my family via WhatsApp and email. My room (Dreish) did not have a landline telephone. My mobile has Wi-Fi assist but not Wi-Fi Calling which the staff use. Also on 7/9/2024 I was attending the Braemar Games which is a 2 hour drive from the hotel. I had booked myself in for dinner but the staff had said to ring the hotel if I wasn’t going to be back in time. I rang the hotel several times and nobody answered! The hotel was fully booked for dinner that evening including my table but the staff were too busy to answer the telephone! Also I didn’t realise when booking through booking.com that my hotel booking did not include breakfast. Something to consider! Also don’t book the Mayer room in the steadying, the room looks out onto containers for the laundry! I didn’t accept that room luckily the Dreish room was available all week. It was in the steading with a view of trees and a glimpse of the mountains in the background.

Highly recommend, would love to stay longer next time.

Pros: Glorious position, ideal for hiking along and around the glen. Fabulous staff who made us feel like part of the family. Good food and very comfortable room

A super friendly and convenient hotel for anyone wanting to hike up to the stunning Loch Brandy.

Pros: The location is perfect for the stunning hike up to Loch Brandy: you'll find the track a minute or two behind the hotel! The staff were super friendly and helpful with everything, and went out of their way to accommodate my gluten free diet.
