I have never encountered a hotel like the Abbot's Brae before. We stayed for two nights and our room had what must be one of the best views in Scotland. The food was fantastic and the beds incredibly comfortable but these elements ended up being secondary to Christine and Colin's wonderful hospitality. This was the first time we had travelled...

I booked 2 nights in this hotel for my husbands birthday. We could have upgraded to a sea view, but the garden view was amazing. On the first morning Jim look out to see a roe deer in the garden. We also had red squirrels, rabbits and many birds. There is also a walk through Fairy Glen which Jim did,... More

My wife and I stayed for 2 nights in the Abbots Brae Hotel during our recent tour of Scotland. This is a lovely old manor house on a hill overlooking the sea just outside of the town of Dunoon. The grounds are beautiful with giant 150+ year old Sequoia trees in the garden. The Ardentinny room had wonderful water views,... More

We spent a lovely night at Abbots Brae. Our room was large, beautifully furnished and overlooked the water. We ate dinner there and enjoyed the food very much. However the best part of our visit was the hospitality shown us by Colin and Christine who did all they could to make our brief stay memorable. I would highly recommend this... More

Arrived to a very warm welcome from Colin and Christine which lasted throughout all of our stay. Excellent room with good facilities. The views from the house are great (even if it is raining!). The driveway may prove challenging if you are planning to walk into town, just be ready for it on the way back! An excellent base to... More

The Abbots Brae is quite simply the best hotel in Dunoon! Myself, my Husband, Sister, Brother in Law and Mum all stayed here the weekend of the 10th May.

We really enjoyed our stay at Abbot's Brae and would visit again, or just dine at the restaurant, if in that area again. The hearty breakfast filled us up for the day and the three course evening meal (menu changed daily) was much more sophisticated than we had been expecting. Christine and Colin extended their welcome to our dog, and... More

Since we last visited this hotel, it has changed hands and some alterations have been done. It is now rated 4-Star Small Hotel by VisitScotland and reflects the general high standard expected of hotels at this level. The current owners, Colin and Christine are delightful hosts. We were met by Colin who just "materialised" as soon as we got out... More
