A place for amazing views and a quality stay.
A great locatio. With amazing sea views with lots of wild life inc a seal who peeked out regularly, we could even watch from our bed. The room waa smal but adequate, the floors creaked a lot. Beautiful food in the restaurant could have been a bit hotter but still tasted great. Over all still a 10 out of ten will revisit soon.

Lovely friendly Inn. Upgraded my room because they could.
Food was very good.
Highlight of the stay was lying in bed watching two otters playing in the sea. Not many hotels where that’s possible!

Make it easy for customers not the Hotel.
Told I could charge to room then when I ate I couldn’t after first night. Charged my card twice and could not give different invoices for each charge. Not good for businesses. Telling me they could not charge to the room when they obviously could was not a good look either. Annoyed that much I ate somewhere else 2nd night.

Beautiful waterside property - leading to stunning sunsets!
Lovely staff - very helpful. Pub had a great atmosphere clearly enjoyed by locals and visitors. Food was good, and generous portions. Great location for access to highlands or Oban and beyond.
Good value price for the room, powerful shower and rooms clean and had all we needed. The rooms are tired in places, and disjointed from the main building so you have to walk outside and around the building to get to breakfast or access the car park as access through the pub is limited to when its open.
