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.

The blind did not cover the bathroom window so we couldn't use the shower. Room could do with a makeover as looking pretty dated and damaged.

3 nights at Oak tree inn.
Breakfast was excellent...... Everything spot on. Evening meal was also excellent, although a little expensive..... But you do get what you pay for.. Umbrellas were a nice touch as required, for walking too and from reception or restaurant.. Would definitely recommend.👍👍

Great stop Day 1 of West Highland walk
Great stop at the end of Day 1 walking the west Highland Way . The room was a little on the small side with virtually no storage places and only a shower not a bath (that would have been perfect). Very clean with tea and coffee facilities. The restaurant was part of the pub which was very busy and was mostly pub food. Staff were very friendly. Only wish there was somewhere for residents to go and relax - ie a few sofas - as we had to sit in the noisy restaurant all evening with all the other pub goers. Great cafe and shop on site to get bits for the next day too. Would book again .

Popular place to stay.
The pod looks fairly new. You can park right outside. Shower was strong and hot apart from the shower cubicle is on the small side. Double bed is comfortable with clean bedding. Once you put the heating on the pod becomes warm.
Two down sides, there was no remote for the TV and I couldn't get the WiFi to connect. But once I went to reception and connected it worked fine.
The hotel it self is great, good food, nice bar. Also very busy clearly a popular hotel. Really good coffee in the coffee shop.

Tired and price too high for what’s offered
The Oak Tree was a disappointment. Not as presented in their photographs. Rooms are tired and in need of updating. Food in the restaurant was good but surroundings very rustic. In my view expensive for what was on offer.

Lovely Six Night Stay in July
We loved our stay here. Our superior pod had everything we needed and the little patio with the view of the Loch was just perfect. Good mattress and plenty of hot water - the most important things for me. The hotel and cottages were beautiful. Might try out the cottages next time! Reception staff were delightful. Friendly and welcoming.
We had dinner our first night and it was terrific. This was our first time having haggis and I think it spoiled us! The Cullen Skink and Sticky Toffee Pudding were also great. Lovely whisky flight also

Lovely room but...
It's a difficult review. The staff are great,the food is great and the rooms are very nice and clean.however,we were in Dan's cottage room on the lower level. The soundproofing is unfortunately non existent. We could hear and feel every footstep above,every toilet flush,every hairdryer and every muffled conversation. It's a shame as the room,hotel and balmaha are lovely.

Our stay was decent, the area is beautiful. However we paid extra for a "deluxe" room and the room was nothing like the one in the photos, no where near as nice.
