I've been here a number of times for work and it's my go-to place if I'm working in that area. It always feels really chilled and the restaurant is excellent with a range of Scottish and seafood dishes and delicious vegetarian options too. I'll definitely be back again.

We've been visiting Creggans for 30 + years, the location, service and accommodations are great. Really beautiful views. Our breakfast and dinner were excellent, delicious and well presented. Kudos to the chef and kitchen staff! We love the Inn but it could do with freshening up, it’s looking a little tired.

My husband and I were in Scotland for 10 days and stayed at 6 different hotel locations from moving around a lot to see the country. The Creggans Inn was easily my favourite! It was a cute, older style Inn directly on the ocean! The only thing I was disappointed with was we only stayed one night. Absolutely beautiful scenery, beautiful garden out front, nice room, and friendly staff who love talking about the history of the place! Great food as well.

Rooms great , food not, standard pub grub, lots of burgers and chips. they have fantastic dining room overlooking the loch where you can watch sunset, but it is shut… what a pity, instead in a windowless bistro with pictures about wine in London. Need to think what sells, which is the views from front.

Wonderful hotel in a magnificent location 👌

Went to Scotland for a soltice party and stayed at the creggans. Beautiful property with scenic views. Warm and welcoming staff and gorgeous food, especially the oysters. Room was lovely with big bathroom and great view over the loch. Breakfast was amazing too and included in the price. 👍
