We stayed here for 2 nights and as soon as we pedalled up to the front door we were made to feel very welcome - we were given access to dry storage for the bikes, a warm drying room for our wet clothes and all delivered with a "no problem" attitude. The Hotel is less than a mile outside Tarbet,... More

Couldn't get booked in at this hotel but tried out the restaurant anyway and thoroughly enjoyed our meal. We arrived just outside of the lunch hour but the chef was on hand to meet our needs before continuing our journey into the village of Tarbert. We would definitely plan ahead the next time and book well in advance, from what... More

Great 4 night stay, massive room on 1st floor with equally massive bath & shower. A very warm welcome from Rosaline on our arrival and genuine concerns for the enjoyment of our stay as a national emergency to get everyone connected back with power on the entire Kintyre penninsula just south of us and on the island of Arran was...

What an adventure that was! You were both fantastic throughout. Being at the hub of a national emergency isn’t something many of us get to experience and as we all saw first-hand it was quite chaotic at times. So, it was marvellous that you decided to stay nonetheless. I really hope that you are able to come back to Kintyre... More

We stayed overnight at The West Loch Hotel before catching the Islay Ferry, and were very comfortable in 2 rooms on the top floor, with an unbeatable view. Communication was first class from our initial phone query and subsequent emails to and from Rosaline, we found everyone friendly and helpful. They even got me decaff teabags especially! We didn't have... More

We only stayed for one night before catching the ferry to Islay and we couldn't fault a thing........ Very much made to feel welcome by the owners, the room was clean with a large ensuite and the food was divine and cooked to perfection using locally sourced produce. Would definitely recommend a stay at West Loch!

Stayed here for one night which was one night too many. Hotel has been taken over by Americans who were exceptionally rude. They haven't spent any money on it and its in desperate need of upgrading. The bathroom in our room was a disgrace and the waste system was horrendously noisy. We ate in the restaurant and both of us... More

The reviewer makes a point of saying that we are “Americans”, indicating specifically directed xenophobia. West Loch Hotel has no American owners – all four of us are UK born and UK citizens. We are accused of being rude by a woman who said on arrival: “Our friends said why on earth would you want to stay there, we were... More
