The hotel was easy to find and has a good-sized car park. We were made very welcome and as I had completed the pre-registration on-line we could go straight to our room. The hotel serves food so we could eat there that evening. The food was good and the service was excellent. Our room was large and the bed was very comfortable.

My son and I traveled from Canada 🇨🇦. Newtonmore is a very quiet, quaint village. The Glen was a very lovely central place to stay. The room was clean, staff very attentive and helpful.Meals were amazing with breakfast included in your stay except Mondays. There is a diner a short walk away, and a couple of cafes down the street. We loved it.

Small town charm

This is a very nice inn and our room was very comfortable. The staff is family and that was felt by us, very welcoming. The food that was served was also very good.
