Craigard House Hotel, Campbeltown

A warm welcome awaits you at the Mull of Kintyre. Craigard House Hotel occupies an imposing position overlooking Campbeltown Loch (already two famous songs – and this is only the first paragraph!).

A recently converted Victorian mansion with an interesting and varied history, the Craigard House Hotel offers a friendly and informal stay, in thirteen comfortable and well-appointed rooms – most with glorious sea views. The hotel still retains many original features, such as the ornate cornice-work on the ceilings, and the painted glass windows.

There is much to do locally, with two World Class Classic Links Golf Courses to choose from - Machrihanish GC is a classic World Top 100 course, with arguably the best first hole in the world (guests of this hotel benefit from 10% discount on Green Fees); while Machrihanish Dunes GC has been designed by a World Top 40 designer; along with Dunaverty GC, always beautifully kept, with fantastic views. There are various watersports; hiking the Kintyre Way; mountain biking on Bheinn Ghuilean; Campbeltown Picture House; Distillery visits at Springbank, Glengyle and Glen Scotia.  there is plenty to keep you occupied – if you can tear your eyes away from the wonderful scenery...

Accommodation

Although the house dates from 1882, within the guest rooms, however, everything is right up to date - every room having a fully tiled en suite bathroom, with bathtub and shower. There is also free WiFi in all rooms and public areas.

Each of Craigard's thirteen bedrooms is named after places of interest in the locality. Most of the rooms have stunning sea views over Campbeltown Loch – with our South-facing location offering panoramic vistas of the sunrise and sunset.

All rooms have bath and shower, free WiFi, welcome tea & coffee service, mineral waters and complementary toiletries.

There are three ground floor rooms.

Our aim is to ensure that Craigard is the Hotel in which we would like to stay – if we were away from home.

We look forward to welcoming you, Roger and Lori
