    The location is stunning, beautiful garden and views, so tranquil. The hosts Sue and Avril are excellent and so welcoming, the breakfasts are delicious with lots of choices. The rooms are warm, very comfy and there is a beautiful lounge to relax in with a cuppa or glass of wine.

    First of all, the hospitality was 2nd to none. The Inn itself is charming and beautiful - well maintained, tastefully decorated, comfortable, Clean and lovely. Breakfasts were made to order and plenty of choices. The location was great for us to explore the Inverary and Oban areas on day trips.

    Nothing at all, ladies.

    10 out of 10, a magnificent old house and views to die for, a gem and the lady owners thought of everything. They were very hospitable and the entire experience very enjoyable . Breakfast was excellent and they truely deserve thier rating on Booking.com. The bed was an absolute highlight, so confortable, the best nights sleep I have had in a long while.

    We liked everything. However, the possibility of having a slightly later breakfast and checkout would make things less rushed in the morning.

    Very enjoyable stay. The room was comfortable, cozy and lovely. Everything was in impeccable condition. The hosts were very welcoming and did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. And the breakfast was delicious.

    Our room had a Loch view where we witnessed beautiful sunsets. The bed was extremely comfortable and in room amenities were great, lovely fluffy towels, toiletries, excellent bedding and a seating area. The whole house has been decorated beautifully and to a high standard which feels very welcoming and is also extremely clean. The shared lounge is a huge bonus and is very comfortable with great views over the Loch which you also get from the breakfast room and terrace. Breakfast was lovely, good selection and high quality produce, excellent poached eggs! Our hosts Avril and Sue were both very friendly, nothing was too much trouble and made us feel very welcome. Thank you for having us and we look forward to returning. We would highly recommend staying here.

    This is the most welcoming guest house we have stayed in for many, many years. Once checked in, we were given tea and cakes. Lovely room, freshly cooked and very tasty breakfast. Delighted to rate 10/10 as fully deserved.
