Old Creggan’s inn is an absolutely beautiful location facing Loch Fyne and the mountains surrounding the loch. Dinner was delicious and the Loch Fyne mussels are heartily recommended. Sunset from the upstairs guest lounge room is absolutely gorgeous.

Food and service great. BUT you could hear your room neighbours. Parking excellent. I didn’t like that there were so many dogs in the bar, and barking all the time, also you had to step over them.

This Hotel is an absolute gem. Slightly off the beaten track with fabulous views over the loch. Staff were excellent, room and bathroom both spacious, comfortable and nicely decorated. We dined in the restaurant there and the food was super. Highly recommend and will definitely return

Rooms great , food not, standard pub grub, lots of burgers and chips. they have fantastic dining room overlooking the loch where you can watch sunset, but it is shut… what a pity, instead in a windowless bistro with pictures about wine in London. Need to think what sells, which is the views from front.

I liked pretty much everything about my stay at The Creggans. The only concern i had was that there is no bath mat so i felt a little unsure while in the shower. But that might also be due to my age😊

Amazing food and sunsets

Our first night on a week long 25th wedding anniversary trip to Scotland was spent at The Creggans Inn. We booked because of a recommendation in a book called 'Cool pubs and Inns with rooms'. All the pubs recommended also do great food and The Creggans Inn did not disappoint, the food was delicious. Amazing sunsets set immediately in front of the pub over the Loch. Our bedroom was clean, nicely decorated with modern wallpaper, and comfortable but the pipework was very noisy. Other than the bedroom and the restaurant the rest of the rooms and bar were very dated and would benefit from a little love and attention. The upstairs lounge could be very special, especially with that amazing view through the very large picture window.

Badehotelsstemning.

Kro med rigtig god mad både morgen og aften. Hyggeligt værelse med udsigt over vandet. Godt udvalg af vin, øl m.v. Fri parkering. Dejlig have. Gåturs mulighed langs vandet. Dejlig have med flere bord/ bænksæt. Gode stuer til spil, læsning m.v. Sødt personale. Man skal nok tænke på at opvarme kroen i sommeren hvor der alligevel var køligt, der var en fugtig luft i selskabslokalerne som vi besigtigede.

My husband and I were in Scotland for 10 days and stayed at 6 different hotel locations from moving around a lot to see the country. The Creggans Inn was easily my favourite! It was a cute, older style Inn directly on the ocean! The only thing I was disappointed with was we only stayed one night. Absolutely beautiful scenery, beautiful garden out front, nice room, and friendly staff who love talking about the history of the place! Great food as well.
