Hawthornbank Guest House

We returned to Hawthornbank on two occasions this summer, the first being in June and the second just last week. Its central location can not be beaten. Delighted to report that the standards set by Ian and Jem continue to be exceptional. Our room and all communal areas were immaculate. As before, the bed was extremely comfortable and one which you can’t help but have a good night’s sleep in. We stayed in The Regency Room from which the views across the bay are stunning. Sitting in the high-backed chairs, taking it all in is something that will be a special memory to recall during the long Scottish winter months. Both Ian and Jem are very warm and welcoming hosts. We were considering going over to the Island of Kerrera on the last day of our stay and Ian provided us with all the relevant information which sealed the deal for us to go! We are so glad we did as it was such an enjoyable and worthwhile trip. Top marks once more to Hawthornbank and looking forward to our next visit!

When renting a B&B, often there is a hit or miss. Ian’s place is a hit. The house is tastefully decorated and the patio is beautiful for sitting out and enjoying the view. Ian has provided great breakfasts during our stay. The facilities in the house were well- appointed and functional. Hawthorn guest house is a definite “yes” from us. Robert

Really enjoyed our 2 night stay. Handy location for everything. The house was beautiful and spotlessly clean and the host was very accommodating.

Thoroughly enjoyed our stay with Ian and Jem. Even though we arrived early, we could park our car at the back and Ian showed us around the ground floor and gave us our room key so we could let ourselves in later. The continental breakfasts were impeccably served and there was ample to eat. We would have no hesitation in returning if up that way again.
