"Strontian is a haven of peace and beauty, and Laura is the perfect hostess. When she says “if you need anything, just ask” she means it, whether it be menu choices, travel advice , or even booking a medical consultation . "

Tip:
"Staffa and Fingal’s Cave is a must but listen to Mendelssohn’s overture first to get the full effect.
There is so much to do, from walking to taking a cruise or canoeing, or simply sitting and imbibing the scenery, and thinking about that epic Caledonian trilogy you’ve always wanted to write.
Go there!"

What kind and thoughtful words - thank you! It was a real delight to meet you both too. We aim to do the very best we can for all our guests and provide an environment that we ourselves would feel at home in, complemented by our beautiful location. Yes, you can be on the Isle of Mull in about an hour and it's well worth a day trip over and there are plenty of great cafes in the area for the holiday essential -afternoon tea and cake :) We would love to welcome you again in the future. Until then, warmest wishes to you both.

"You were a great host, but sometimes it is better to host a little bit less. You tried to do it well and you spoiled us to much with breakfast. You are a friendly person, that is what we admire in you, but look out not to loose yourself in doing to much."

Tip:
"A nice and quiet place. The food in the hotel was not so good. There was another restaurant, more alternative at the Oakwood park, we liked the atmosphere and very friendly people and Keltic music."

Tasty breakfasts and a warm, friendly welcome are our speciality - thank you. We publish and respond to every single review we receive and pride ourselves on our overall consistent top rating reviews over the nine years since we opened our doors to guests. However, your scores for location and service/staff show that, on the very rare occasion, we do not always provide exactly what our guests would like. There's always room for improvement, we guess :)
