The coaching inn at Kilfinan has welcomed visitors since the 1760s. The Cowal peninsula is a world of its own, only two and a half hours from Glasgow and just over the hill from the bustling village of Tighnabruaich. The area is full of ancient historic sites and walks can turn into fascinating hunts for cup and ringmarked stones, chambered cairns and the remains of early Christian chapels. Andrew and Helen will welcome you with simple but delicious food. Breakfasts are excellent and the décor is in keeping with the timelessness of the area. Once visited, it will be difficult not to return to the hospitality of the owners and the feeling that nothing is too much trouble. Bedrooms are well equipped with soft throws on the beds, crisp white linen and gorgeous views towards Loch Fyne and the Mull of Kintyre.

18/06/2009 (3 night stay): I followed the reviews of others who gave this hotel a 100% rating. I have to say I was not disappointed. The welcome was terrific, the food and the atmosphere made for a very happy short stay. If you like some very peaceful surroundings then this is it.

25/09/2009 (2 night stay): The hotel was lovely, the room fresh, cosy and tastfully done up, the location was beautiful with lovely views and walks from the hotel. Special mention must go to the people running the hotel who could not have been more helpful or friendly.

15/04/2009 (5 night stay): Can't believe there's still somewhere like this hotel in the hustle and bustle of modern life. Totally chills-vill, kids didn't want to leave. I didn't want to leave. Owners Helen and Andrew very friendly, great reception. Would I stay again?
Definitely yes!
