Good choice
I never willingly choose the plane. As has been said, a truly horrible experience
I envy you the 8 on those roads, fantastic
and for the stopover, how about.....

Been a couple of times, loved it. Great food and accommodation.
One of the bedrooms has a raised bed so the views through the window and over the loch can be enjoyed while in bed.
Wishing you and your significant other a brilliant time
