Hotels near Minard

Could not fault the welcome and hospitality of the manager. Nice food in the evening.

We had never been to this part of Scotland before and simply chose Powdermills B&B as a place to explore the area. It was one of our best decisions ever. Set in an area of scenic beauty, it is a beauty in itself. Located 8 miles past Inverary near the village of Furness it is ideally located to explore Loch Fyne, Inverary and parts much further afield. As you approach the outskirts of Furness watch out for the 2 white cannon signs either side of the road pointing to the accommodation which will be to your right. It is set back from the main road through gates and along a short driveway. There are plenty of spaces for parking. A warm friendly welcome is guaranteed with nice snacks and a drink for the weary traveller. The property is modern in build, spacious and light throughout. Our room was likewise with ensuite and complimentary toiletries. Breakfast is served in the main living area off the kitchen. There was a huge array of food suitable for any diet and delicious. The proprietors are friendly and available for advice on the local area/eating places etc. They maintain a small forest and grounds (sorry forgot how many acres) which is the reason for the property exceeding our expectations. We took time to explore the grounds with most pathways being easy to walk and only c15 mins and were rewarded with a great view of Loch Fyne. If you have time I would definitely recommend you do the same. It is ideally located 8 miles (c13 mins) from Inveraray going north or 3 miles (c5mins) from Crarae Gardens to the south. We visited the gardens on our way in (3 hours) and they are well worth a view. We also visited Inveraray and the Castle, home to the Duke of Argyll. There are plenty of eating establishments in Inveraray, we ate at the George Hotel and Inveraray Inn and would recommend both. Also visit the Harbour Gallery, good prices/amazing art.

Good location and facilities, good food and service

A characterful hotel in a unique setting at the entrance to the canal. Comfortable rooms and excellent food and drink.

Very central as was there for a wedding

This is a beautiful location overlooking the loch. Breakfast was excellent, varied and tastefully presented, with fresh fruit each morning. I loved the upstairs lounge with its books and huge picture window, a calm place to relax and watch the stunning scenery The hotel, had a comfortable and traditional feel, with real keys for the rooms, which I really liked! It closed quite early at night but I was provided with a no fuss key for the main door. The only thing I might have missed was the bar staying open longer, otherwise I had a delightful stay, and couldn’t really have asked for more.

Beautiful location, excellent food, very friendly.
