Beautiful inn made better by great staff & service
Due to a series of traffic incidents, we ended up running late for our scheduled check-in and rang ahead to let staff at the inn know. We were tired and stressed and their response couldn't have been more lovely and reassuring. We had a very good night's sleep in 2 of the garden suites which were immaculately clean, very spacious and had great facilities for a family of 5 travelling with their dog. We booked a hot breakfast for the following morning which was both delicious and filling. We would definitely be happy to return, hopefully with more time to enjoy the beautiful surroundings next time!

Très contants de notre séjour. :)
Nous avons séjourné en famille durant 2 nuits. La vue était magnifique. La cuisine était fonctionnelle. L'endroit très propre. Très bon accueil à la réception. Très facile pour parquer la voiture.

Lovely stop in the Western Highlands
An excellent place to stay on Loch Awe. 3 minutes' walk from the train station - take the gravel pathway leading to a slope at the end of the platform, rather than the steep stairs up from the platform itself, if you have heavy luggage. Scottish Citylink coaches stop right outside the front door - there is no marked bus stop but you can just wave the driver down. Oban is 20 miles away (35 minutes by train). The Inn is impeccably kept and the welcome is very warm and friendly.
