Stayed one night as part of a weekend break and I would recommend it for a relaxing getaway. We had the room at the end which was lovely as it overlooked the Atlantic Ocean inlet. Dinner at the Inn was also good and it is always nice to have the owner come by and say hello!

We had a lovely overnight at the Inn. The Tiree bedroom was small but very nicely decorated. Large bathroom with super shower and fluffy towels. Though carpet? That did let room down as did no chairs in room - we like to read papers in room before dinner. Slept well as peaceful quiet area. Beautiful large dining room with superb... More

Many thanks for your review. We're delighted that you enjoyed your stay with us at The Galley. Just a quick comment about the bathroom carpets - they have been a theme throughout our reviews, not everyone comments on them, but enough to spur us on to replace them. I am happy to confirm that from 1 June 2012 all en-suite... More

We had our wedding reception at The Galley at the end of March. We were lucky enough to have fantastic sunshine which showed off the beautiful views at their best. The food was delicious and the staff worked tirelessly to ensure that everything ran smoothly and were willing to go above and beyond to help with last minute dramas. We... More

We only stopped here for a quick drink as we headed towards the bridge over the Atlantic. The sun was shining and Ardfern looked fantastic. I liked the garden and the half pint of guinness was well poured.

My husband and me stayed here on a midweek break. Ardfern is a lovely place and the inn was very good. Food first rate and the staff were excellent. The only thing you need to remember is to put the door tag out if you want the room cleaned. We also had a trip on the sea leopard while we... More

We had our dog with us(first time away from home and still at excitable stage) so room we were given was ideal.Right beside the fire exit with a view of the loch - what more... More

Last week I spent a most enjoyable stay at the Galley. While I was anticipating miserable weather and had driven across Scotland from Fife in sleet and blizzard like conditions I received a warm welcome, cozy room, and ate excellent dinners. The view out the dining room window must be one of the finest in Scotland. Never mind the weather-... More

Nothing was too much for the staff at this gem of a hotel. We spent a post Easter break in Ardfern exploring the peninsula and had a wonderful time. After our first day out, we spend the early evening on the rear deck overlooking the sea, drinking a bottle of prosecco, magical. Their restaurant serves a wide variety of quality,... More
