A perfect location and dog friendly hotel
We've just returned from having had a wonderful 3 night stay at The Portsonachan and would recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a quiet, peaceful location with magnificent views.
Danny on reception greeted us on arrival and made us feel most welcome.
Like many others, we had read some of the negative reviews, and we're a bit apprehensive. We needn't have worried, as the room we were allocated (Etive) was a lovely, bright, clean little room in the dog friendly coach house. We had a waterfall by the back door and was a great place to watch the vast array of garden
birds hopping from tree to tree. There were lovely reododendrons on the bank which were in flower and some superb wooden sculptures of deer placed between.
Please note though- there is a steep stairway to this room on the first floor that some may find difficult to climb, so ensure you mention this at the time of confirming your reservation.
We enjoyed afternoon tea on the patio whilst admiring the magnificnt views and relaxed in the warm sunshine. Danny even provided a bowl of cold water for the dog and took time to explain where we could visit and some of the walks we could enjoy locally- he is a wealth of information and is a great asset to the hotel
Breakfast is served from 7.30am until 10.00am which was great for us as we like to get an early start. The was a good selection, cooked to order, served on hot plates, and the quality was excellent. The staff are very friendly and the service was efficient. We also dined at the hotel each evening and we were not dissapointed. There was a good quality appetising selection, well presented and reasonably priced.
During our stay we visited Kilchurn Castle, Inveraray, Loch Etive, Oban and Seil Island. There are so many places to see, we'll have to return and can recomend The Portsonachan without any hesitation.
Many thanks to all concerned and we'll look forward to staying with you in the future- we may even upgrade to a lock view apartment next time.
