What an amazing location, what a lovely hotel, what wonderful dining. This is a really special place. There is so much to do around the area, ie walking, animal and bird watching. The hotel is set in a peaceful setting and the staff are the best.

The Mingarry is a “boutique hotel” of 8 rooms where the host, Emma, gives personal service. The entire hotel: entry, room, restaurant, is beautifully decorated. At the entry, there’s a little bookcase gift shop of postcards, journals and other locally-themed and locally-made items. We stayed in the Mingarry Room. The living room area was huge with a large sofa, coffee table and desk and a tiny balcony that felt very safe. A little table and two chairs were provided and the balcony offered a great view of the highlands and the surrounding fields. Not a dramatic view but a quiet and calm one. The bedroom included nightstands, another desk, and a little bench to sit on to enjoy the view from the window. Skylight in the bathroom which was really nice to let light in but keep the bathroom private. The bathrobes were huge fluffy, so luxurious! The bed was so soft and we slept really well. The living room included a Nespresso machine and tea kettle with teas, instant coffee and cocoa, biscuits. There was also a small fridge with mini-bar with free waters along with liquors and luxury snack items for a fee. Behind the hotel is a lovely grassy field, ponds and farm ducks. In the field were three, clear geodomes to relax in style! Each “pod” kept the cold and the bugs out. Inside each pod is a heater, love seat and lounge chairs that can seat 4, a coffee table and lights. Mimosas on arrival (can’t beat that!) and Emma will also deliver snacks, desserts or libations. The attached restaurant—hands down, the best food of our trip! Their Cullen Skink is to die for! The menu changes frequently according to the availability of local produce. There are few tables and there are few restaurants in the area so having a reservation is a good idea. The restaurant includes a bar with a good selection of local whiskies and gins. There was plenty of parking. A car is needed to get here and to the area attractions. Most of the roads are single lane but the drive is worth it!

Warm welcome from the staff and very friendly and attentive service. Fabulous location. Amazing food

Loved the quiet location, the decor, the staff.

Its a lovely quaint hotel at Port Appin overlooking the light house in a distance. Nice views and close to Castle Stalker too. The breakfast was delicious. We love our well appointed room which is also large. It was warm and welcoming. The hotel was well furnished and there are many places you can lounge to enjoy the environment. We love the dinner at the restaurant too.

We rarely hand out a perfect score. Here is why we could not do any other way. The breakfast was excellent. The lady of the house Liz, cooks the breakfast herself at the time you wish. Do not be late, since she takes great care in serving excellent tasting food, with home made jams in the conservatory, with a view of their very green garden. The house is beautifully decorated with pictures by Innes, the husband of Liz, who has a talent for photography. You can buy the pictures framed for a very fair price. The room is superb; everything is their in the right proportions designed with care and in a British tradition, excellent beds and great shower. The place is so clean. The friendliness and interest in their guests is what stands out most. Innes drew several special maps for us, so we would not miss the things we wanted to see and experience the best of the Highlands. They are so willing to make your stay the best you can imagine in Scotland. And that is what they did: the best stay!
