Lovely weekend

We stayed for 2 nights in the Garden Cottage and would love to have stayed for longer. We were a couple with my 90 year old father and the cottage was perfect - all on the level and well laid out. My dad loved it. The cottage was pretty from the outside and inside, had everything we could possibly need. The big kitchen diner was great for eating in and the lounge very comfortable. We were impressed with the wifi and the staff at reception were great. A really quick and courteous check in and likewise on our way out. We have stayed at Melfort before and enjoyed walks round about the place as well as a trip to Oban. Would love to come back again. Thank you.

Wonderful retreat

This was our first time at Melfort Village. The setting was beautiful and the surroundings peaceful. The reception staff were so welcoming and helpful. We hired the garden cottage and it was great. Comfortable and clean with plenty of room. We loved our time at Melfort and there was so much to do. Will definitely be back!

Back again

It is now over 20 years since we discovered Melfort Village and we have only missed our annual visit twice in that time. As visitors at the start of the season we enjoy the peace and quiet of Scotland in the winter. You have to go no further than your front door to see the rugged beauty. Our cottage, Garden Cottage is cosy, comfortable and well equipped. It has a nice little garden...hence the name. Most years we view it from the sitting room windows although this year it was warm enough to extend the time filling up the bird feeder. Lots of birds to be seen also red squirrels and this year a deer in the garden. The walking in the area is a total joy and it is suitable for almost every type of walking from stroll to strenuous. The staff are delightful and nothing seems to be a trouble to them. So a quick review of not just one year but nearly 20 years,” we love it and hope to be back many more times”.
