Top Gylen Castle Hotel Reviews

The Great Western Hotel

8/10 Good

"Convenient to all amenities and a great view of Oban Bay. Good selection of meals (breakfast, restaurant).rooms are a bit dated and some use is showing, but all around good place to stay."

The Kelvin Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"Room was spotless. Ideal for the Ferry"

The ultimate secluded Holiday Cottage

8/10 Good

"Tigh Beg is a complete one-off. The location and setting of the cottage is just perfect. Days spent on the patio, watching the sea, hearing the birds and basking in the tranquil setting just pass by effortlessly. Seals, otters, sea eagles, buzzards and sea birds frequently join you throughout the day, along with wonderful birdsong from all the trees and shrubs surrounding you. The property is well equipped for 4 people staying and is in generally very clean and tidy. Having the porch with dishwasher is a bonus as you are remote and need to bring plenty of supplies and cook a lot of the time. Nearby Oban is charming and offers all you will need for shopping and fresh food. Small gripe would be the lack of cover or shade on the patio which is full sun for most of the day. Thoroughly recommend!"

The Wi-Fi was reliable, and the private garden with beautiful views was a lovely bonus - ideal for enjoying a coffee or evening drink. It truly had everything you could need for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.We canâ€™t recommend this cottage enough! Whether you're looking for a peaceful getaway or a base for exploring the area, this property offers the perfect combination of comfort, style, and convenience.
