    All was great

    The Stable was light and bright, well decorated with a fully equipped kitchen. The bed is very comfortable. The view out on to the garden is lovely. Also ate at the Horseshoe- tasty food and good service.

    There was nothing that we didn't like!

    Our stay at The Horseshoe was perfect. A lovely space with everything that we needed. Check in was quick and easy. As it's attached to the pub, we were worried that it would be noisy - in fact, it was quite the reverse! It felt very private and quiet. The food in the pub was excellent.

    Not much really but possibly they could update TV so you can mirror any devices or USB plug in.

    Great base for walking with dogs, Crinan canal 5 minutes away as well as plenty of stone circle sites and other historical locations. Food at Horseshoe Inn was best I have tasted in a long time and good value too. Paul was a great host taking time to ensure your stay was enjoyable and all other staff very friendly. The stables was clean and basic enough with all you need for a comfortable stay if you are doing self catering.

    The heating is controlled from the Pub and although the radiators were on and hot, the space was cold. The Barn is a big space and even with the additional radiator provided it was cold. The decoration was great and there are some wonderful skylight windows but that added to the feeling of being cold. Not sure it helped having rained for 3 days straight either.

    I have stayed at the Horseshoe previously and must admit it took me by surprise that there is only the barn conversion offered now. Had I read the instructions properly I would have know that and been more prepared. Its a great idea the way it is and having a fully functional kitchen so that you can do your own thing, would work for most. Evening meals are still offered and the ones I had were tasty and plentiful For business travellers that need a quick start to the day it means getting breakfast on the move

    The only improvement I would suggest is the wifi - it worked well in the kitchen and living room but did not reach the bedroom. As I had no mobile signal in the area I was relying on the wifi.

    The cottage was perfect for my needs, the kitchen had everything necessary for cooking. Bedroom was very comfortable and the extra heater was a nice touch. Great location for getting around Kilmartin Glen and Lochgilphead.

    Nothing to complain about at all however a suggestion- saucepan lids would be a good addition as we were self catering and 2 were missing so lots of steam generated.

    Really nice little place,quiet location and very well equipped kitchen, plenty towels and nice and clean would / will return .Great to have a dining table ,friendly owner,we had a lovely stay

    A cosy and stylish stables conversion which suited us perfectly for a short stay in this lovely part of Scotland. Paul was a warm and welcoming host and the fact that we could eat at his inn next door was an excellent bonus!

    A smoke alarm beeping needed a battery replaced alough this was resolved quickly. Not as warm as expected and although we had an extra electric heater the air still felt cold. Though I must say we have had extremely low temperatures in this area at this time of year.

    Breakfast was made in the overnight stay by ourselves as its late season we didn't get to sample the homemade food.
