Thistle House Guest House

We travel all over the world and are used to staying in top quality although usually corporate styled hotels, as I was due to participate in a BDMLR course at the nearby Lochgoilhead,we decided to stay at the Thistle House Guest House, and what a find, from the minute we arrived we received an exceptional welcome, we were shown to a beautiful room with stunning views,we were then invited to the lounge for coffee ,cake and shortbread, the hosts could not do enough for us preparing early breakfasts ( delicious omletes) and we had requested packed lunches which by any standards were incredible, sandwiches, sausage rolls, cake , biscuits , crisps, and fruit ,water, all for an exceptionally reasonable price, the guest house was immaculate throughout spotlessly clean ,we felt like we were the first guest to have entered this sumptuous property, it was so well looked after, the property was fully occupied yet we felt as if we were the only guests and so enjoyed the grandeur of Thistle House , additionally the hosts were kind enough to give us details of nearby restaurants which allowed us to book in advance. finally we had an exceptionally comfortable sleep, the rooms are all en-suite with well equipped bathrooms with shower, ample parking and well signposted in both directions, definitely visit again !!!

We attended a wedding at the nearby Creggan's Inn this weekend and stayed for two nights at Thistle House. We were really pleasantly surprised by the house - it is so pretty - the bedrooms were very nicely decorated and the lounge was beautiful. The views of the loch are amazing and the whole atmosphere is very relaxing. The owners were extremely welcoming and helpful, especially with our elderly relative - they were so kind and patient with him. Breakfast was excellent and all the little details - home made marmalade etc. really added to the visit. We would happily return.

This was our 3rd stay at Thistle Guest House & the standard of both accommodation & breakfast was as high as ever. We absolutely love staying there. Sue & Avril are excellent hosts, they go out of their way to make you welcome. This trip we stayed in the beautiful Stewart bedroom with view of garden at rear of house, we have also stayed in Campbell & Lamont previously. Each room is beautifully furnished & decorated. Guests also have use of the beautiful & relaxing downstairs lounge. Breakfast is excellently cooked with a wide range of choices offered.  The gardens at the guest house are gorgeous with great views across Loch Fyne to Inveraray & the castle there. All in all Thistle Guest House is perfection.  Thankyou Sue & Avril, we are looking forward to our next visit.
