    Our second visit and definitely don’t regret coming back. Beautiful location, wonderful accommodation and onsite facilities. Staff are so friendly and go above and beyond to make your stay a great one. Particularly enjoyed our meal at The Lord of the Isles, great food and customer service. We also ate onsite which was lovely too. Melfort Village is beautifully kept and a excellent place to go with children and your four legged friend. We would love to return again in the future.

    Fabulous quiet spot with brilliant views and a Scottish river (decent sized babbling brook) adjacent to the garden. Very dog friendly place and a decent bar and restaurant. Couldn't ask for more.

    We enjoyed our stay at Melfort Village all the staff were great, friendly and very helpful, we had a problem with the heating which was dealt with without delay. We found the cottage cold but the weather on the week we were there was awful, the heating bill at the end of our stay was very expensive but they are in the process of upgrading the old storage heaters.

    The shoal of herring really is very poor now. That’s plenty of characters submitted. No wonder the restaurant is so empty.

Definitely recommend eating at The Shower of Herring the restaurant onsite, Kat and her team were warm and welcoming and food delicious. Will definitely be back.

    an excellent cottage in a very good location. It was a pity about the power cut but it did not really affect our visit. I had to book for three nights but at the time of booking I knew that I could on,y stay two nights.
