Creag Dhubh Country House

Stayed for 2 nights & have to say Inveraray is a beautiful place The room was quite small & I would have liked a loch view, the fan in the bathroom made a loud noise when switched on & the shower caddy was rusty The room could do with a refresh to be honest but the bed was comfortable & the linen & towels clean & fresh The host, Crawford, was very friendly without being intrusive & very knowledgeble about the area All in all I enjoyed our stay & would stay again

I am a bit remiss in taking so long to write my review of this wonderful stay in June 2024 at the Creag Dhubh Country House. We had a very warm welcome from Janice, our hostesses and owner. This was our first time to Scotland and what a wonderful experience staying here. The house is situated in a wonderful location in Inveraray, overlooking Loch Flynn. The location was perfect, with a delightful 10 minute scenic walk along Loch Flynn into the heart of the sweet historic town and only 15 minute walk to Inveraray Castle . We never needed to get in our car for the two nights we stayed and it was safely parked up the driveway, in front of the house for the duration. After a really comfortable nights sleep in our lovely room, I enjoyed a scrumptious English cup of tea in bed as I watch the light on the picturesque Loch Flynn which was constantly changing and mesmerizing views from our window. Our start to the day was topped with Janice’s delicious full option breakfast, my husband having the full Scottish breakfast and me opting for delicious bowl of porridge, which set us up for the day. The room was large with comfy chairs looking at the picturesque view. The bathroom was large and well appointed with a shower. Many thanks again to the kind and wonderful Janice who went above and beyond and had absolutely terrific recommendations for dining in town!

The budget room is too small for 2 persons. We had to leave our suitcase in the car.
