Great elevated decking with panoramic views across Oban harbour to Mull. Linen napkins in the breakfast room and a superb choice at breakfast with excellent vegetarian options.

Proprietors stayed up late because our train got in late- what a surprise- what a nice thing to do for us!!! They answered the phone each time we called with a questions or when we needed directions. We were treated with such kindness! The food was exceptional, and the room, it's view and the ensuite were just perfect! Val even... more

The ample daily breakfast (included in the room price) consisted of a fine self-service selection of... more

Lovely spacious room with magnificent view. Great hosts with good sense of humour. Delicious breakfast and eggs prepared however you like them. Short walk down into town which makes it easy to go out to eat and go on boat trips. more

We thoroughly enjoyed our visit at Thornloe. Our rooms were spotless with all the amenities supplied that were advertised. The location was not far from downtown, so we were able to walk. The extra bit of luxury that I especially enjoyed was the lush white bathrobe supplied for each guest. It was a wonderful treat for a road-weary traveller. I... more
