The House@Glenbarr

I had a delightful experience during my stay. The apartment was charming, featuring a self-contained kitchen, living room, bedroom, and bathroom, all impeccably clean and warmly decorated. If I find myself in the area again, I will definitely prioritize booking a room here. The host was exceptionally friendly and hospitable, offering helpful recommendations for nearby dining options. My only regret was not having had the time to visit the adjacent shop and café.

This is the second time i have stayed at The Glenbarr and will stop again when in the area, lovely accommodation.

It was a very good stay except the night we arrived we couldn’t find the place. It took us an extra 45 mins to get there and it was dark and barley any street lights.

Welcoming, comfortable and beautiful. Lovely rooms, wonderful facilities and a great location an outstanding deli gift shop and a fantastic café where I could get vegan food. An outstanding team who went into overdrive when my puppy hurt her paw. Getting us to a vets and pulling out all the stops I’ll give them 100 straight up excellent

It is rare to see a place so well reviewed and I was a little sceptical the place could really live up to such outstanding ratings. However really did! Excellent location, beautiful rooms and most helpful and friendly staff. Strongly recommended

A dour, unwelcoming person in the shop turned out to be the owner. Rude, abrupt and soul-less with no sense of humour and much less in the way of charm. Interested in money, however, as she wanted £110 for myself and my little pup in one room for one night. I peaked through a window at the room which was decent enough and looked comfortable. The House however, which is a useless name for a property when you're trying to ask locals in the area where it might be, is plain and has no outlook whatsoever. Please avoid this place like the plague and hope that it fails as a business and that someone with a sense of warm hospitality and a degree of realism about economics takes it over and runs it like it should be run. This woman actually does a disservice to the area and would put anyone off staying there. Nearby, particularly by car, there are several delightful places to stay and to enjoy wonderful scenery and meals at much keener prices. The House doesn't even offer a decent breakfast, apparently, but on days when the adjoining cafe is open you can buy breakfast at additional cost. It's almost laughable if it wasn't an affront to traditional Scottish hospitality. Don't go near it till someone who deserves to run their own business gets a hold of it and revamps the whole customer experience. Even then, I have to say there are much more dramatic locations a stone's throw away with wonderful people running them, delightful staff and menus to cheer you up no end. I would not stay in The House even it was free accommodation. Life is too short to deal with vacuous and money- grabbing leeches passing themselves off as your Scottish host for a memorable stay. Go elsewhere...in fact go anywhere else.

Very welcoming with knowledgable , friendly staff. Quiet unique setting , the courtyard area very peaceful for a coffee.

Room was great. Bathroom was very large and well appointed. Breakfast was not great. No fruit and only one juice option. With this one exception, it was a great stay.

Spotlessly clean and superbly comfortable rooms. Full kitchen access and great location for stayin on Kintyre. George was an excellent, helpful host and it was an absolute pleasure staying there. Would recommend it to anyone in a heartbeat. Also, I need to find alpaca bedding!!! It's the best!!
