My father and I were recently doing a road trip of Scotland and we landed in Inverkip and needed to find a room - this was a perfect choice! The room was warm, beds comfortable, and breakfast was excellent with vegetarian AND weight watchers option for cooked breakfast!

Stayed here for a couple of nights this week, very welcoming reception from Rhona and Jim,couldn't have asked for more. Very clean and comfortable room with good free wi-fi, as it should be. Good choice for breakfast, didn't try the cooked offering but kind of wished I had!

Just spent night in this fantastic little bed/breakfast. We had two American visitors with us who were just "blown away" by the hospitality and friendliness shown to us. Breakfast was cooked fresh for us and was amazing. The rooms are beautifully furnished and finished to a high standard. The rooms were lovely and warm and nothing had been scrimped on.... More

During the course of my work I regularly stayed at Foresters and found the service warm and pleasant and the rooms always spotless and it was a nice quiet place to stay so it was easy to sleep, if necessary at odd hours as my work required. Thankyou to Rona and Jim, I can highly recommend their B&B!

Spotless, comfortable, good value for money and very pleasant, friendly owners...what more could one want! From Inverkip it's an easy drive to Glasgow or Ayrshire and the ferries to the Clyde Islands are only minutes away. A brilliant place to stay.
