Dungallan Country House Bed & Breakfast 5 stars

Originally built as a summer residence by the Duke of Argyll in 1870, Dungallan Country House Bed & Breakfast is situated on the edge of the town of Oban. The tranquil and secluded, yet commanding position means that the hotel offers superb views to 3 sides. Oban’s promenade and the town’s shops are just a 10-minute stroll away. A beautiful character building. The summer residence of the Duke of Argyll . The location and scenery was fantastic and close to the town. Run by a very friendly couple who made you extremely welcome.

The Guest Wing

Rothesay

Featuring a DVD player, the spacious country house has a fully equipped kitchen with an oven, a microwave and a toaster, a living room with a seating area and a dining area, 4 bedrooms, and 2 bathrooms with a walk-in shower and a bath. Guests can enjoy a meal on an outdoor dining area while overlooking the sea views. For added privacy, the accommodation features a private entrance. Everything. The location was perfect, right across from the water, and within walking distance to Rothesay. The house itself is roomy and has everything you could want. The grounds are spacious and Carolynn and John encourage you to play on the front lawn with the various garden games they provide in the shed next to the house. They are very kind and provide little touches such as milk and biscuits, shampoo and conditioner and even disposable barbecues.

Mansefield House 4 stars

Arrochar

Featuring a large garden overlooking Loch Long and the Arrochar Alps, Mansefield House is a holiday home situated in Arrochar. Guests can enjoy the patio area and barbecue. The country house features free WiFi throughout the property and free private parking is available onsite. We had an amazing stay at Mansefield House to celebrate my dad’s 60th birthday. There was plenty of space for all of our family. The hosts have thought of everything you will need (and more) to make your stay comfortable and stress-free! The village of Arrochar is a beautiful location and close to lots of activities. Would definitely return in the future!

Drimsynie Estate Hotel 3 stars

Lochgoilhead

As the centre piece of Drimsynie Estate, this impressive hotel overlooks its own 9-hole golf course, plus Loch Goil and the Argyllshire mountains.

Onsite guests can find The View Bar and Restaurant – with panoramic views over Loch Goil - offers breakfast, lunch, snacks and a contemporary dinner menu, alongside daily specials, with children’s and takeaway menus also available. In my view, with Drimsynie, Lochgoilhead is the best wee village in the World (I live in Greece, which has some cracking wee villages, and I have travelled a fair bit)! Drimsynie is an excellent place to go to for a long weekend or a longer holiday, with or without kids. Adults and kids of all ages will love it! There is so much to do and the staff are always willing to help! The surrounding scenery is breathtaking and whether you are golfing, walking, or sailing, you cannot help but be taking in by the majestic scene that is Lochgoil / Lochgoilhead, and the surrounding hills. As a holiday destination, Drimsynie is an ideal place for both active and relaxing holidays! We stayed in the hotel this time but I have also stayed in one of the lodges, and I would recommend both! This is a gem of a hotel and holiday destination!!
