United States of AmericaEverything! This is a very special spot! The building is incredible and historical. The space is updated and impeccably decorated. Jana and Robert were so warm and lovely. The views of the lake were beautiful. Just a 10-15 minute walk to the town center.

United States of AmericaThe Radha-na-Craige is a lovely home and its location on Loch Fynn is perfect as it is a short walk to everything in town yet “down the road” just enough to be private from other tourists rambling in town. It is well-maintained and thoughtfully furnished. Rob was extremely helpful in arranging a local restaurant reservation, giving advice about taking things in around Inveraray, and even our route back to Edinburgh for our flights back home. Breakfast was excellent and the menu offers a large selection of options. Spotless, quiet, comfortable! We would definitely love to return!

United States of AmericaRob and Jana were wonderful hosts. So welcoming and helpful. Everything about our stay was perfect. The rooms were clean, very comfortable and homely. The breakfasts were wonderful. We had some special food requests which Rob and Jana were only to pleased to help with. The location of the house was stunning. Rob and Jana could not have done more to make us feel welcome. We even had hot drinks to take away with us on our long journey home. Thank you Rob and Jana.

United KingdomBeautiful position and also very friendly and helpful. We were given such a long list of places to visit and see, plus recommended routes to get to our next destination. We took those and they were wonderful

United KingdomRudha-na-Craige is a wonderful historical home that was turned into a B&B. It has beautiful views overlooking Loch Fyne and is close to Inverary. New owners Robert & Jana were very welcoming hosts and a little nervous because they had never run a B&B before and it was their 1st week. We just want to let them know they did a great job and we really enjoyed staying there. Inverary is a nice small town, and the castle is a must-see!

From our main entrance on the A83, its is mostly paved and very pleasant apart from around 5m of grass. There is also a long walk through the forest :)Answered on September 14, 2021

Rudha-na-Craige
Rudha-na-Craige (pronounced RooA-na-Craige) is a beautiful Victorian house on the banks of Loch Fyne. Built in 1863 by the Duke of Argyll and the ancestral home of the current Duke of Argyll. Rudha-na-Craige was also requisitioned by the Admiralty during the war years when the area was used for naval training adding to its rich history.
Lovingly restored to its former glory and modernised, our six bedrooms are individually designed with fabrics, furnishings and original antique artwork specially chosen to reflect the character of the rooms. All rooms have powerful hot showers in cubicle and some have baths as well!
Our rooms have splendid views across Loch Fyne or the garden and rolling hills.
Be Inspired- whether you are looking for a memorable wedding venue, a relaxing few days away or somewhere to use a base to explore the area by car, bike or even canoe or kayak - we have you covered.
Our bright and spacious breakfast room has two views of Loch Fyne and we offer a selection of hot food including a full cooked breakfast, Loch Fyne Kippers to order as well as a cold buffet
A warm welcome awaits you from us, your hosts, Robert & Jana, to our beautiful and historic home.
Robert originates from London and Jana is from Brazil and speaks fluent Portuguese, good Spanish and some Italian - no doubt stemming from her ancestry in Venice, Italy.
We fell in love with Inveraray in 2012 and kept coming back as tourists until we made the move from the hustle and bustle of London to Inveraray in 2019.
We are both avid motoring enthusiasts and are happy to point you in the right direction whether you fancy a drive along the Lochside or high in the mountains.
Inveraray enjoys a picturesque setting on the shores of Loch Fyne, where it meets Loch Shira. It was built on the site of an earlier fishing village in the mid 1700s by the 3rd Duke of Argyll, Chief of the powerful Clan Campbell. He demolished the original village to give his rebuilt castle more space, and rehoused the population in a new town that is one of the most attractive in Scotland.
The original village of Inveraray stood in the parkland that now extends south east from Inveraray Castle to the main A83. It had grown following the move of the Campbells to "old" Inveraray Castle in the mid 1400s from their previous stronghold at Innis Chonnell Castle on an island in Loch Awe.
Inveraray was well enough established to become a burgh of barony in 1472 and a royal burgh in 1648. With a good natural harbour and lying at a key focal point in the limited road network across Argyll, it had effectively become the legal and administrative centre for the county by the early 1700s. Its development went hand in hand with the growing power of the Campbells and the importance of their seat at Inveraray Castle.
