Welcoming, friendly, kind, respectful, and warm - done with care and attention to detail!!

The owners were amazing, from the moment we stepped onto their property until we left it, their welcome and sending off was both warm and kind. They treated us like they knew us, they were so kind and hospitable, nothing was a problem. Spare fridge with fresh milk and water and available to put your own stuff in it. Everything they did and said was from the heart! 5 stars to them, 10 out of 10 - so so friendly and interested in you the guest, but not over the top- our privacy and boundaries were respected!!

Nothing! Everything was brilliant- breakfast was the highest quality!

Amazing stay on Loch Fyne

We love absolutely everything! Breakfast had many options and was delicious. They also offer Vegan alternatives! The recommendations to have dinner nearby were great! The building and rooms are authentically decorated and there is plenty of space to chill with your friends and family in front of the fire after a nice day. The rooms are spacious and the bed was very comfortable. The shower had good pressure and the room was comfortable and warm on a chilly evening. The hosts, Sue and Avril were fantastic. They are beyond any expectations and made us feel welcome, with love and care for the little details and outstanding customer service. We will definitely come back! The location is perfect if you are looking for nice views and quiet surroundings.

Excellent guesthouse not to be missed!

The B&B was a beautiful building with an impressive view of the loch. The room was lovely. The owner kindly got us a Chinese takeaway from a nearby town as the pub we were going go to (as recommended by the owner) sadly was closed to walking as there was a wake. Bicycles were securely packed away in the owners garage. Breakfast was excellent. I had a full Scottish and my wife Jo salmon.

The shaver socket did not work (in the bathroom) and a socket in the dining room for charging my iPhone. However easily remedied by using other sockets.

Lovely Stay near Inveraray

Extremely lovely stay at Thistle House. Sue and Avril were so kind and helpful with restaurant recommendations. My husband and I enjoyed the view from our room, as well as the beautiful common room downstairs—a coal fire in this room was so nice in the wet weather. We enjoyed meeting the other guests in this area, and it was a quiet space for us to play scrabble. Numerous choices were available for breakfast and the food prepared was delicious. We’d highly recommend Thistle House.

Nothing bad to comment about.

Beutiful views and top service

Beautiful house and surroundings with a spectacular view. The owner was very friendly and helpful. We had a king size room with a fantastic bed and sheets. A wonderful touch was the hot water bottle alongside the requested extra blanket. The breakfast had plenty of options to cater to different tastes, as well as options for vegetarian and vegan.

Despite the short stay, we felt truly pampered in a stunning lakeside setting, at a guesthouse where every detail is carefully taken care of. If we have the chance, we will definitely return for a longer stay

Idillic, relaxing and a true getaway

This property has everything you could possibly need. The owners are so kind and welcoming, you feel like you are staying with family! They gave lots of recommendations for walks and pubs nearby. The tea, coffee and home baking on arrival was so lovely. The rooms have everything too. Even a makeup facecloth! Breakfast was excellent too. We had the best time here and can’t wait to book again.

The only small thing for us was that we didn’t find the pillows too comfortable. The bed was comfortable though!

Idyllic

Stayed for a wedding in a nearby town and everything was amazing. Sue and Avril are brilliant hosts, kind and caring and Thistle really feels like a home from home. The view across the loch is so beautiful, rain or shine! The breakfast was unreal - fresh local produce and plenty of it! Such comfy beds, I didn’t want to get up. Great little touches like a flannel just for make up removal - 10/10 would recommend to a friend.
