Delightfully situated, traditional coaching inn overlooking "locks" of the Crinan Canal. Lovely rooms and imaginative menus help this to be the perfect place to discover this hidden corner of Scotland. 11 en-suite bedrooms. Superb touring base for the west coast, Argyll and the islands.
This charming former 18th century Coaching Inn, once used by fishermen and later by puffer crews carrying coal and provisions to the outer islands, is now owned by Darren and Christine Dobson. They are very much 'hands-on', Darren front of house and Christine responsible for the décor and assisting the chef. The dining room, with vibrant paintings by local artist Jolomo, is the centre of the Cairnbaan experience. Fresh lobster, seafood, hill lamb, venison and Highland beef are specialities. Close to Kilmartin Glen, with its Neolithic and Bronze Age monuments, the hotel can arrange loch fishing and boat trips to various islands.
Facilities near hotel include: Sailing, shooting, indoor swimming pool and riding nearby Cairnbaan Hotel is open all year. |
