Perfect
Great place when you are traveling in the highlands. We had a small pod room that had everything we needed. It was a quick trip but we would have loved to stay longer. The restaurant was very good even for us vegetarians. Cool hiking vibe

1 night stay - pod
Booked a short notice overnight stay in one of the upgraded pods. It was very nice with a very nice location.
It was really quiet and peaceful.
We booked dinner in the restaurant and the staff wee attentive, accomodating and very polite. The food choice wasnt huge but the quality of the food was good. It was a little pricey for what it was but you are paying tourist hotel prices.
Overall we had a lovely time and would consider booking one of the larger cottages for a family event in the future.

Good Quality Room. Too Expensive For What You Get
Check in was nice and easy with clear directions to the room in another building. I think the building was called Loch Say.
The room was one floor up and likely a converted attic. Bed was comfortable and, shower nice and clean with all amenities expected. The steep sided roof was annoying and other than the bed, there was no furnishing. We literally sat on the floor to watch TV and make tea/coffee.
Location wise, the hotel is centrally located, directly opposite Conic Hill Car Park and where a shop and cafe are located.

Nights away
The staff were very plesent and welcoming the accommodation was lovley clean comfortable.
The second night of our stay we were celebrating my patners 70th birthday with 8 other friends, we were refused any more drink served to us as we were too loud! If we had been asked to tone it down then we would have, it was a birthday! The way the staff went about it was upsetting and embarrassing that took the shine off our weekend. Apart from that we did enjoy our stay.

We ended up staying an extra night due to a storm and the staff were very accommodating. Food was amazing and so too was the atmosphere in the bar. Very friendly and welcoming staff and the family room we had was lovely. Would definitely recommend.

Loch view cottage
I asked for a room with a bath and received a free upgrade to stay in one of the cottages and it was beautiful. What a great space and view of the Loch.
Staff were very friendly and the food was delicious as always.

Really enjoyed our stay, beautiful place and surroundings.
Slight negatives were noise from adjacent rooms and 10am Sunday checkout. Otherwise, food, service and atmosphere all great and plenty of lovely walks.

An amazing village! Will be returning.
The Oak Tree Inn was easily signposted and welcoming upon arrival. We were a little early for check-in but were shown where to park the car and get food. We stayed in a twin room in one of the cottages just down the road from the main reception site and restaurant. The room was clean and warm!
Ate in the onsite restaurant both nights good was great and reasonably priced.
The staff was very friendly and helped with directions to places to explore. I would recommend the 'Devil's Pulpit' if you're up for a climb down into the gorge. Also, the Loch ferry across to the village of Luss is great for seeing more of the Loch.
Balmaha is a beautiful village and we will definitely be returning on our next Scotland trip.
