Excellent accomodation for two people ( although a sofa-bed would allow for four ). Well appointed, clean and well resourced. The shower was OK but could be improved by a bit more power. ‘The Stables’ is comfortable and well equipped for self catering ( although we dined twice at The Horseshoe ). There are a few books and many DVD’s. This accomodation is very well situated for visits to the Neolithic sites and the museum of Kilmartin Glen. Little touches like the motion sensor light above the door raise this property above the ordinary. We would certainly stay here again.

I have stayed at the Horseshoe previously and must admit it took me by surprise that there is only the barn conversion offered now. Had I read the instructions properly I would have know that and been more prepared. Its a great idea the way it is and having a fully functional kitchen so that you can do your own thing, would work for most. Evening meals are still offered and the ones I had were tasty and plentiful For business travellers that need a quick start to the day it means getting breakfast on the move

The heating is controlled from the Pub and although the radiators were on and hot, the space was cold. The Barn is a big space and even with the additional radiator provided it was cold. The decoration was great and there are some wonderful skylight windows but that added to the feeling of being cold. Not sure it helped having rained for 3 days straight either.

Great base for walking with dogs, Crinan canal 5 minutes away as well as plenty of stone circle sites and other historical locations. Food at Horseshoe Inn was best I have tasted in a long time and good value too. Paul was a great host taking time to ensure your stay was enjoyable and all other staff very friendly. The stables was clean and basic enough with all you need for a comfortable stay if you are doing self catering.

Not much really but possibly they could update TV so you can mirror any devices or USB plug in.

Accommodation came with fully functioning kitchen for cooking. Parking was at the gate and we had our own little garden. We ate the home cooked specials in the pub and enjoyed the very well kept beers. The location was beautiful and perfect for exploring the local pre-history.

Our host was helpful- and humorous and there were was nothing to complain about.

The cottage was perfect for my needs, the kitchen had everything necessary for cooking. Bedroom was very comfortable and the extra heater was a nice touch. Great location for getting around Kilmartin Glen and Lochgilphead.

The only improvement I would suggest is the wifi - it worked well in the kitchen and living room but did not reach the bedroom. As I had no mobile signal in the area I was relying on the wifi.

Great communication, check in as advised. Well equipped kitchen and comfortable lounge area. Cosy rustic cottage. The location was great for us to visit the Kilmartin standing stones.

A shame the pub was not open for meals while we were there, and that it's a bit of a drive to Lochgilphead for supplies. Not much room in the bedroom for luggage.

Spacious and clean apartment. Well equipped, feels like a liveable home. Very hospitable staff. Comfortable bed.

The radiator shut off during the night so it was a bit chilly in the morning when we woke up. Was not a problem after getting dressed, but made getting up from the warm bed harder.

The host was attentive and flexible, despite being very busy in the adjoining inn. The accommodation is comfortable and spotlessly clean and designed for self-catering, but we dined in the pub and had breakfast at the Kilmartin museum.

We could only stay one night.

Really nice little place,quiet location and very well equipped kitchen, plenty towels and nice and clean would / will return .Great to have a dining table ,friendly owner,we had a lovely stay

Nothing to complain about at all however a suggestion- saucepan lids would be a good addition as we were self catering and 2 were missing so lots of steam generated.

Our stay at The Horseshoe was perfect. A lovely space with everything that we needed. Check in was quick and easy. As it's attached to the pub, we were worried that it would be noisy - in fact, it was quite the reverse! It felt very private and quiet. The food in the pub was excellent.

There was nothing that we didn't like!
