Wonderful location, clean quiet, and comfortable room. Hosts were very friendly and helpful and the breakfast was delicious. Be sure to have dinner at the hotel next door, the amazing view was only exceeded by the quality of the food.

What a cosy place to stay! It is indeed an old cottage and our room looked out over the loch. The accommodations are outstanding with a well appointed bedroom and bathroom. The bed was so comfortable! There is a communal sitting room with tons of information about Scotland. The hosts are so friendly and welcoming and are very knowledgeable about Scottish history and area sights. Breakfast is served in a bright dining room overlooking the water with bird feeders attracting local birds to the garden outside. Breakfast choices were extensive and made to order. You are out in the countryside, so I recommend you have a car and the cottage does have free parking. This is the perfect way point in your travels through Scotland.

The ocean view room was spectacular. The garden view room was comfortable and met our needs. We traveled with our adult son so we occupied both rooms. I thought it was closer to Oban than it was. As it turned out, the inn’s location was so spectacular that it made us forget about returning to Oban.

Loved everything. Exceeded expectations! Do not drive by if in the Oban area. Nicest place and best value on our 30 day trip. Be sure to book to eat dinner next door. Hosts will email instructions.

I have mobility issues and my balance isn't good. I mentioned this when booking the room and the owners very kindly took this into consideration and gave me a downstairs room with access to the outside within easy reach of my car. I really appreciated this. The accomodation is within easy reach of Oban and Kilmartin Glen. I used this as a stop off to break my journey up from Skye to home. The owners were so friendly and welcoming. Nothing was too much trouble. They were very knowledgeable on the local history of the area which I found very useful and helpful as I was wanting to explore Kilmartin Glen. Just a couple of nit picking things, 1, I used a towel only once and hung it up to dry in the bathroom. The towel was taken away without a replacement put in place and although I was left with a small and large towel, I was planning on washing my hair the next day and as it's long, just needed another towel to wrap my hair in. 2, I made myself a coffee in the room. The cup and spoon were taken away and although there was another clean cup there wasn't another teaspoon so I stirred my coffee with a pen. Just nitpicking things but a bit frustrating. Otherwise, everything from the location, room, comfy bed and large accessible shower was perfect and I will definitely stay again and recommend to friends and family.

Excellent location on the coast and adjacent to Scottish Trust gardens. Fresh local breakfast and chance to taste area produce. Would have liked bottled water provided.

Attention to detail

Quiet, very comfortable room and bed. Breakfast was most enjoyable and delicious. Due to their location, wi-fi was a little challenging to get service, but it was such a great stay it didn’t matter.
