Independent Achnamara hotels

"Lodge room spotless, helpful staff and fabulous location. Excellent breakfast, lunch and dinner."

"Relaxing two nights with excellent food and service. It was a frosty two nights and our en-suite bathroom suffered a wee bit from lack of heating but otherwise a superb stay "

"This is possibly the most charming hotels and place I can remember staying. It’s an old building in a harsh Scottish environment and that is part of its charm. If you want pristine decoration it’s not for you. If you want excellent hospitality, fantastic staff and walls full of the owner’s original art, go. Walk the Crinan trail - the view from the viewpoint is one of the best on a clear day (it is a steep walk though). A genuine Scottish gem."

"Hands down my favorite hotel during my trip. On the day of my check-in, I made dinner reservations and unfortunately I ran into car trouble so I was going to miss dinner hours by 20 minutes. Immediately when I got to check in, they offered to make me a plate even though the kitchen was closed. 10/10 hotel! I’ll be visiting again"

"We had an early ferry to Islay the next morning, and the staff were so thoughtful to prepare our breakfast ahead of time and leave it at the front desk. Great service and nice, comfortable room. The hotel is also very close to the ferry terminal — only about a 10-minute drive, which was very convenient."

"Our Princess Suite room was wonderful - nice size, nice bed and view over the harbor, in this comfortable and well appointed small guest house right in the center of Tarbert town. We would happily return! "

"Hosts were very caring, nothing too much trouble. Very good breakfast. Room was very comfortable. "

"Lovely clean room - perfect. Staff were super friendly. Vegetarian breakfast was amazing - we'll definitely come back. Thank you!"

"The property was lovely and well presented and in one of the most beautiful places in the UK. The host was very helpful with all my inquiries and was clear and straight to the point on check in and check out. Everything you could possibly need to use while staying here is in this house. I will be looking to rent this place again in the future."
