Lochgilphead Loch Sween Hotels

"Ah, what a gem of a place! A bit off the beaten track, but that's exactly what I was looking for and the Galley of Lorn did not disappoint. The overall air is casual, the staff are friendly and chatty, and nothing is too much trouble. The whole interior looks fairly recently updated, but it's left with enough older features to retain some character. The rooms are all named after Scottish islands, and we stayed in Skye. The room is black and gold decor, done well, not at all overstated. Usual tea and coffee, small fridge (tiny, and tucked inside one of the bedside cabinets,) a safe, hairdryer... Most, if not all, the things you might reasonably expect. The television is probably the largest I've ever seen in any hotel room, which was excellent, and there's an Alexa Show by the bed as well. The bed itself is relatively firm, which suits us entirely. The bathroom is clean and modern. It has an excellent waterfall shower in a double sized shower cubicle, with good water pressure. And then there's the view from the room onto an inlet of Loch Craignish; I'll add pictures. Food, excellent, no complaints. Large plates of well made meals with a focus on locally sourced produce, from Cristian the chef... Don't tell him it's excellent, his head is said to be big enough already. Must mention Laura, receptionist/ barmaid/ waitress, for just being excellent all round. "

"just a lovely place to be for one night"

"My daughter and I absolutely loved every minute of our stay at Lochead Chalet. It's in a wonderful spot right on the loch side, and oh my it is so very peaceful! The chalet itself was a perfect size for we two adults and our little dogs and we found it very clean and well-equipped with everything we needed. Karlina in the Ellary estate office was lovely too. A beautiful location for a holiday and a charming place to stay - highly recommended. "

"Roomy, comfortable and well equipped house overlooking the sea. Lovely to sit in front garden on sunny days. Well equipped and clean, would recommend this property. "

"I have rarely used exceptional to review a hotel but the Kames was. We travelled here from New Zealand on holiday and we only had one night but it was exceptional. The restaurant menu is top class, the range on the menu was great and seriously 10/10. I had locally free dived seared scallops from the loch, I had the slow roasted goat shank with lentils - exceptional, and we shared a lemon tart with fresh berries. I loved the Kames and I seriously recommend both the hotel and the restaurant. That is my honest feedback, Thanks, Phil."
