Stayed here with friends in adjoining rooms on a day when the weather was very poor. However the welcome was warm and friendly and the service was excellent. The excellent food in the restaurant was reasonable priced and very tasty. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. We would definitely stay here again.

We stayed for one night on our way to Kintyre. We loved this place! The room was large and comfortable and our Labrador was welcome too. We had a delicious meal in the restaurant, and then relaxed in the bar with our dog at our feet. The breakfast was very good too, and the staff were very helpful and friendly.... More

Rented Apartment for week only to find Mice were eating our food within the 1st hour. We had a child with us and we informed staff who were really good and understanding. It was just the... More

Non residents welcome at this restaurant/bar overlooking the marina just outside Oban. The views are great, service is friendly and efficient and the food lovely. Good selection with the emphasis on sea food. The whole place looked clean and welcoming

We had a dog and were put in the lodge beside the main hotel. Huge room and lovely position. Staff very helpful and very dog friendly. Beautiful location by the water and very close to Oban for catching the early ferry to Mull. Breakfast very good but far too much! Would recommend.

We were staying the night before a ferry journey to the Uists, by far the best value in the area, we had a superb view over the bay from our room, the bar and food were excellent, staff friendly and helpful. It was too late when we realised breakfast would be served after we left for the early ferry, that... More

This place has the ingredients to be a wonderful place. However, it didn't quite turn out that way, unfortunately. As we had a dog staying with us, we were placed in a room right above the kitchen. For paying £85.00 for 1 night, I did not like being placed in the worst room just because I had a dog with... More

Spent 3 nights at The Wide Mouthed Frog for our mini moon. We were pleaseantly surprised at how modern our room was, having being recently refurbished. The under floor heating made it extremely cosy. Views over the marina from our balacony were stunning (room 10). We dined in the restaurant on our first evening and were not disappointed as my... More

My husband and I have just spent four nights at this hotel and we thoroughly enjoyed our time there. The proprietors, Chris and Catherine could not have been more welcoming, efficient and helpful. Dinner was of a high standard and my husband's scallops ( freshly dived for ) were the best ever. Breakfast was of a good standard and of... More
