Having just returned from a stay at the Loch Melfort Hotel, my husband and I are still mulling over all the different things that made it so special. Of course the setting alone is wonderful (even more so if you are a gardener, as the stunning Arduaine Garden is literally next door), but there was so much more. The rooms with balconies facing the sea loch were exceptional - spacious, cosy and with a view to die for. Lots of little details had been very well thought out, including the very lovely Highland Soap bathroom items - in proper bottle dispensers. There were also cosy waffle cotton dressing gowns! The bed and arm chairs (facing the view) were very comfortable and everything was spotlessly clean. Another huge 'hurrah!' was the dining room and the standard of cuisine - both truly excellent! The waiting staff were professional, pleasant and very attentive. The food was genuinely delicious - including the wonderful breakfast menu. And all of this whilst looking out over the constantly changing panorama of the bay and islands in front of the hotel. I would mention only one minor niggle - the instant coffee in the bedroom was the usual offering with 'milk' in those annoying wee tub things - but honestly I hate even mentioning it, because everything was of such a high order. We will definitely be back and recommending it to friends and family.
