Ben Cruachan Inn

Sometimes all you want to do is sip a cold, local beer while staring out at a majestic loch.

Sometimes, even though the loch view is important, you would prefer to enjoy it from inside a warm, cosy hotel.

Sometimes you don’t really want to put in a lot of effort into getting to this majestic place. A train directly from Glasgow and a two minute walk from the station would be ideal.

This deal for a stay at Ben Cruachan Inn meets all this criteria. Available seven nights a week until the end of March 2019, it would make a wonderful Scottish break.

One or two night stay

This Big Deal at Ben Cruachan Inn has three options. Option one is for an overnight stay for two people with a late checkout and breakfast. Option two adds a £25 per person dinner allowance. Option three is for a stay for two nights with a late checkout, breakfast on each day, and a £25 per person dinner allowance on one night.

The deal is available seven days a week (a supplementary charge of £20 is required for Saturday night stays) until 31st March 2019.

Comfortable rooms

All options of this deal are for a stay in a double or twin standard room (guests can upgrade to a garden suite for an extra £50 per night paid directly to the hotel).

All double or twin rooms are en-suite, with comfortable beds and views across Loch Awe or the hills behind the hotel.

Additional facilities in the rooms are a flatscreen TV with freeview digital, WiFi access, tea and coffee making facilities and a hairdryer.

Restaurant meal

Options two and three of this deal include a £25 per person dinner spend in the hotel’s restaurant.

Dishes on the menu change with the seasons, but expect it to look a lot like this.

After your meal, there’s the option to relax in the Ben Cruachan Inn’s cosy bar, which has over 60 Scottish malt whiskies and a wide selection of Scottish gins and locally brewed beers.

Explore Loch Awe

The Ben Cruachan Inn is situated on the banks of Loch Awe, just a two minute walk from Loch Awe train station on the Glasgow to Oban line and three miles west of the village of Dalmally.

The spectacular view of the loch from the hotel is entertainment enough but there’s plenty of hiking, fishing, boating and skiing opportunities in the surrounding countryside.

There’s also many nearby historical sights to explore, like the Old Ruined Village and Paddy’s Point, the Duncan Ban Monument, and Kilchurn Castle.
