Mingarry Park ★★★★

"very nice and warmful place to live"

Ariundle Accommodation ★★★

"Quite fair for the price! But a little bit far from fort William town centre, and the service is brilliant and helpful as we blocked off the road and very late check in!"

Doire An Daimh ★★★★

Kilchoan Hotel ★★★

"A let down, really. We were looking forward to visiting Ardnamurchan and even though the hotel was a bit pricey (£185 per night) it is one of the few in the entire area. A few points: it isn't really a hotel in the conventional sense, more a pub with rooms; eg there is no Reception area. " A half-hotel" (?) as the Manager described it. There are also no staff available after breakfast is complete until 4.00 PM, when the bar "opens". The biggest let-down was the room, especially the bed. Management laid great emphasis on the superb view of the Sound of Mull, which it is, but that hardly makes up for the rest of it. The decor is very tired and needs redone. The furnishings are very dated, and not in a " shabby chic" way. The bed, or rather the mattress is downright awful. You can clearly feel the springs push through simply by gently pressing on it, not even with any force. Two nights of very little sleep followed, even after the manager "changed the mattress" for the second night ( I suspect it was simply turned over). The manager was very defensive when we spoke to him - eg claiming the mattress was only two years old, and- of course- nobody else has ever complained about it. Another concern was that, having arrived after 7.00PM and come down to eat within the hour, we were asked when we finished eating around 9.00 PM, whether we wanted anything from the bar as it was " last orders". Worth noting that this is the only pub in the area. ( On the second and final night we were graciously informed that the bar would remain open till 10.00 ) Highland hospitality? In our discussions the manager also referred back- by way of deflection- to earlier comments we had made about the difficulties in reaching the accommodation by public transport. We pointedly do not drive and have done very well over the years in utilising public sources to access even quite remote areas. In travelling to the hotel this had proved problematic . We had missed the connection from Glasgow to reach Fort William in time for the only bus of the day, and had to adopt an alternative route via Oban and Tobermory. We then finally arrived at Kilchoan Ferry around 6.30 PM. We had actually phoned the hotel around 5.00 PM ( you'll never get an answer before 4.00 PM in any event) to ask if there was any taxi service or local substitute ( which is often the case in remote areas). We were told No on both counts. Given the inclement weather, could any staff offer a lift? We were told an emphatic" No". We were advised it was " only a 10- minute walk". Manifestly untrue- it is just over a mile. I would note here that at no point did we suggest that the transport or weather problems were the hotel's fault- obviously not. But the fact that we even mentioned these issues was used against our legitimate concerns about the hotel. We were told rather crassly that we should " do our research" before we travel. As retired professionals we are more than capable of doing so: we were simply aski"

Coille Darach B&B ★★★

"We spent 1 night at Coille Darach on our road trip through Scotland and received a very warm welcome. We very much appreciated the comfortable bed, quality bedding and towels and enjoyed one of the best breakfasts on our whole trip. There was a separate seating area/ balcony which we were also able to use. We should have booked dinner at a local restaurant in advance, but were fortunate to be fitted in to the Strontian hotel restaurant and enjoyed a delicious evening meal with views over the water."

Mingary Castle - Restaurant with Rooms ★★★★

"I knew this castle when it just a ruin...a fantastic renovation job , sympathetic to the original structure and resembling a Georgian living style as would have been when last occupied. The rooms are amazing, as is all the castle areas and location stunning. The food is well worth a Michelin star, in my opinion having eaten at various Michelin starred establishments. Well worth a visit...but book early as it does get very busy...."

Loch Shiel Hotel ★★★

"This establishment is well decorated and has very friendly staff. Our room was on the top floor and had everything for a comfortable night stay. We were unfortunate enough to have someone occupying one of the other rooms on our landing who was very inconsiderate when shutting the doors!! We ate at the hotel and the food was delicious."

Belmont Chapel Cottage ★★★
