The staff is kind, considerate and caring. We felt like we were staying with friends that were sharing their home with us. A beautiful location with a nice view over the water into the town. The food was also well prepared, tasty, generous and authentic. We had to leave early and on our way out at 6:00 a.m. they had prepared a very nice bag of goodies to take with us, so thoughtful and very much appreciated. Jeff & Janet

Third visit.

This was our third visit over the last ten years. Enjoyed the comfort and setting using the ground floor room with excellent facilities for my wife's mobility issues.Only disappointment was the very slow service from the kitchen.

Great location

It is in a great location, our room was a small suite which was huge and a fabulous view, it has more of a guest house feel about it , as there wasn't a bar as such , you could get a drink but the staff went into the kitchen for it ,only downside was only one person serving breakfast and room service .

A nice hotel

It was a nice stay. The single room wasn't too small, it was clean and well-maintained. It's a mile or so from town, but cabs are readily available. Breakfast was nice. All around nice.

I cannot say enough good about this property, and it's staff. From the moment we arrived, we were enchanted by the picturesque grounds and views of the water. Upon checking in, we found our rooms to be immaculate and comfortable, and also wonderfully decorated. The staff is the friendliest and most welcoming of any of the places we've stayed at so far, and the meals were absolutely delicious. I will definitely be staying here the next time I come back to Campbeltown!

amazing stay, amazing property and amazing breakfast. Did feel a little sad about the night manager whom, when we asked whether the bar was open at 10:15pm after we’d got in after dinner, told us she was serving till 10:30. We said we’d only want one as we’d had a few with dinner and we’re met with the reply of: if you’ve already had a couple then you’ve probably had enough. Other than that everything was excellent and exceeded expectations.

Best night of Scotland so far

Beautiful old house with an interesting history. Fully renovated bathroom was a complete surprise. Owner even gave us a lift to the golf course as he was worried that a taxi would be pricey. Lovely town as well.

A beautiful hotel set in the stunning & picturesque port of Campbeltown. The hotel is tastefully decorated with lots of period charm. The views over the water from the hotel are spectacular! The staff were friendly, welcoming & very attentive. The breakfast menu is excellent with locally sourced produce & our evening meal was very good. I would definitely return. All within walking distance to local shops & pubs.
