Anchor Hotel, Barge & Seabed Restaurant

When things get a bit hectic, we like to visit places with a vast horizon.

Places that look like they lead somewhere else. Places with big waves and bigger skies.

Set sail for today’s Big Deal from The Anchor Hotel in Tarbert and expand your horizons.

Offering a one, two or three night stay for two in an atmospheric harbourside hotel, this has all the makings of a lovely gift.

And with validity to the end of March, it would also make a welcome escape for anybody who could use a few days off.

Full Scottish breakfast

Today’s Big Deal has three options. Stay in a standard double or twin room with full Scottish breakfast each morning, plus petits fours and a bottle of Prosecco in the room on arrival, available for one, two or three nights respectively.

All options are available seven days a week.

Snug rooms

All guest rooms are a welcoming, snug and safe haven from the elements, with an elegant blend of contemporary design and a truly Scottish twist.

Luxury Scottish toiletries, flat screen TV, WiFi, hospitality trays, sumptuous Hypno beds and soft, rich carpets all ensure guest comfort.

Fresh, local produce

Dinner isn’t included with this offer, however, you could choose to dine at the beautifully designed Seabed Restaurant. It offers local and seasonal produce with plenty of seafood options.

The menu changes regularly but typical dishes on the dinner menu might be the seafood curry; the slow roasted beef; the steak and Loch Fyne Ale pie plus the traditional battered or breaded fish and chips.

Of course, Scottish langoustines, scallops, mussels and oysters all make a regular appearance on the menus.

See and do

If the setting inspires the urge to ride the waves, the islands of Islay, Arran or Gigha are a ferry ride away.

This is a historic region with Bruce’s castle in Tarbert, and the beautiful, well-preserved Skipness Castle a few miles to the South. There are even older relics at Kilmartin Glen, with its ancient standing stones.

Whisky aficionados will enjoy tracing the distillery trail around the islands and the Cowal Peninsula.

‘Enjoyable visit. We recently enjoyed a two night stay at the Anchor. Room was very clean and modern. Staff were very pleasant and helpful and food and drink were reasonably priced. Breakfast was a delight with the haddock and poached eggs delicious one morning and a cooked Scottish the next. Dinner was also lovely…’

‘Hidden gem. Great little hotel… Great food, fresh locally sourced ingredients. Service over our two night stay was generally very good. An older hotel with small cosy, well decorated and comfortable room.’

‘Superb hotel. Service was excellent and the meals were superb. Five of the party had seafood and were greatly impressed with the mussels, lobster and scallops…’
