Argyll Hotel Beachside Restaurant in Argyll & Bute

We were staying just down the road in Tayinloan and saw this place as we passed by. We promised ourselves a visit and we have loved it. Great staff and great food very friendly guests in the restaurant and it’s dog friendly! The view is mesmerising we loved every bit of it! Thank you. We hope to return before we head south again!

We'd decided to book dinner at the Argyll on our first night in Bellochantuy, a place which can best ( and fairly ) be described as lacking where culinary experiences are concerned! The Argyll, however, more than made up for any deficiencies in the area. It has a great and relaxed atmosphere, friendly service and the food was exceptionally good. After a starter and main course each neither of us could contemplate a dessert, pretty much a first where I'm concerned! I only wish it was 290 miles nearer to us so we could make it our regular place to enjoy a first class meal in a relaxed atmosphere. Not surprisingly, this is a popular restaurant and booking is definitely recommended. Fingers crossed we'll be back before we head for home.

I cannot remember my starter but I had balmoral chicken as a main and it was brilliant. The food was of a good quality and reasonably priced. All of us squeezed in three courses with drinks and we all loved the meal. We were sat in the conservatory area overlooking sun setting over the sea. The staff were helpful and welcoming. The owners also have works from local artists for sale that are all around the ground floor, all very unique. The Argyll is somewhere I make sure to book a meal each time I visit friends in Campbeltown.

Excellent value, fantastic food great service. From walking in the door to eventually leaving the bar after eating a superb dinner in the restaurant I could not fault anything about the place. The price is pitched correctly, so you don’t feel ripped off, the food was enjoyable and service great.

Wir haben hier nicht nur übernachtet, sondern auch ein prima Abendessen genossen. Die Speisen und Getränke waren sehr lecker und die Aussicht phänomenal! Ein freundlicher und aufmerksamer Service trugen ebenso zu einem wunderbaren Abend bei. Nicht-Hotelgästen sein eine Reservierung angeraten!

Another great meal at the Argyll Hotel. Its so lovely to eat at a place which is truly dog friendly. Hearty food and an extensive menu that caters for all tastes including veggie and vegan. The staff are great and the view is amazing. We've eaten here many times and will definitely be back again.

We had a wonderful time at the Hotel rooms were very clean the food excellent especially the breakfast, loved the dog friendly atmosphere Nick and Iain could not do enough highlight is the amazing view

We really enjoyed our Sunday evening roast in the hotel restaurant where the customer service was of a very high standard. Fantastic views from the restaurant led to us to talk a walk along the adjacent beach for a great end to our day. Will happily return when next in Kintyre.

We stopped off for Sunday lunch on our way north from Campbeltown. I'm so pleased we did! The hotel sits right on the beach and after a warm welcome by Ian and Nick we enjoyed a gorgeous view over the Atlantic as we ate. We both ordered traditional Sunday roast and the meal was delicious. Rounded off with apple and plum tart and coffee. Although we didn't partake this visit, the hotel has a wide delection of Scottish rums, whisky, gin and craft beers, including many locally produced drinks. Our doggy was made very welcome - not like some places that claim to be dog friendly then make you sit outside! He was definitely treated like a star guest. We are regular visitors to Kintyre so we will definitely make a visit to the Argyll part of our trips. Highly recommended.

Whenever we visit Kintyre we stay here and always have our evening meal in the restaurant. The food is superb. There is an excellent choice and it is all very tasty. Great views and wonderful sunsets.

I stayed here for two nights recently and booked the restaurant in advance since I wasn’t sure what other options would be available. I’ll be honest I was a little worried at this as what if it wasn’t that good? I’d be eating after a very long drive and was a little apprehensive. My worries subsided quickly with the warm welcome. They reduced further when I was presented with the small but very thoughtful menu. And vanished completely with the arrival and tasting of the food. That first night’s meal, where the service and location complimented perfectly the fine food made my decision to commit to a second night’s dinner provide a different emotional. Excited anticipation. So to those traveling to this remote part of Scotland and maybe concerned as I was about “What if I get there and the food isn’t good?” I get it. I’m lucky to live near London and have the good fortune of eating in some very well regarded eateries on a regular enough basis to know what quality means. But don’t worry. It, and everything else, is superb. I’ll be back for more. Which I’ll look forward to after another long drive.

Fantastic food - we stayed at the hotel for two nights and on both occasions we had a wonderful meal. The mussels were FABULOUS - the best my friend has ever had, they were huge, fresh and delicious. The mushroom basket was fantastic - we would return for the starters alone. The fish dishes were second to none - fish and chips perfectly cooked, and the fresh hake delicately flavoured. The meat in the steak pie was tender and flavourful. Excellent vegetation and vegan options too. The puddings were delicious - the raspberry roulade was a hit and the brownie a decadent delight that was melt in the mouth! We cannot recommend this place enough - amazing food and even better service with a stunning setting. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.

When you need to get over the shock of having a 30year old child when your only 42 the place to do.it is the Argyll Hotel ..Nick and Iain went above and beyond with my numerous emails ..my 3 daughters and partners were staying at hotel and they loved the good clean comfortable rooms and the breakfasts in the morning to set them up for the day ...the birthday celebration meal was exceptional ..2 of the boys had mussels and the plate was overflowing ..they said they were delish ..my hubby had the chicken to start which was hot an fingerlickin good ..for mains i had the fish an chips as did a few of us ..we certainly didnt need to find nemo as a large crispy battered fish was plaiced on each of our plates not codding you on with loads of crispy chips ..one of my daughters is vegetarian and was impressed by the variety of the menu and the important thing the taste of the food ..rest of the party had various courses from the steak pie with meat succulent and pastry golden to the hake which came with the comment best he had tasted ..throughout the meal we were asked how it was and Nick was a lovely hostwho took time to converse with us and all the other guests at diff tables as were other staff as can be daunting having a rabble of voices asking fr orders drinks at the same time ...the feast we ate of wine drinks and food ..final bill was excellent but you cant put price on great memories made ..great food great views great memories and a very happy family

A great place to eat. The location is stunning (right on the beach) and the service very good. The food is clearly prepared with care and is good value for money.

Good quality food and service. They were really welcoming to our dog which seems to be rare in the area. Just a shame we only discovered it on our last night in the area or we would have returned several times during our stay.

I had to travel to Campbeltown for work and needed to stay over night. its very difficult to find accommodation with the current COVID restrictions, so I generally take standards of accommodation with a pinch of salt; after all, all I really need is a bed and a decent Wifi signal to catch up on emails. I was very plesentlly surprised when after I booked the room, the hotel contacted me in person to explain that due to the restrictions please could I pre-order my evening meal which I duly did, I was even more surprised by the hotel and its location, the staff were very friendly, the location is stunning the rooms are large, comfortable and well appointed , and the food was really nice; (I even had to go for the dessert which I rarely do) I have passed this hotel many times and never given it a second thought, I will now make a point of stopping when we get back to the new normal. 10/10 for the staff who could not be more helpful, before I knew it the stresses of the day had dissipated and I found myself walking along the beach enjoying what was left of the spring sunshine

It’s my birthday today and we had taken the ferry to Arran for a special day out.After reading the reviews of the Argyll Hotel and the fact they offered a takeaway service, I gave them a call. A lovely man with the kindest gentlest voice and manner took our telephone order and I gave him a time we hoped to be passing through to collect it on our way back to where we’re staying in Southend. The prices are unbelievably reasonable and the food was packed in eco-friendly containers made from plants which is compostable! (I loved that!) The meals were....truly out of this world! I really can’t even express how much we enjoyed them. (I had the sea bass with clams and lemon tart for pudding, my husband had Cullen Skink and Balmoral Chicken). This place is a little gem and we are hoping to be able to dine there in person before driving home next week to enjoy more exquisite food and the beach front views with our 2 dogs. Thank you Argyll Hotel for the perfect end to a perfect day.

Went in for our annual visit today and what a difference the place is brighter and had a lot of work done since our last visit. Owner and staff are friendly and welcoming. Menu had plenty of choice and well priced. We ordered our food and after a short wait our starters were served and this was a taste of things to come. 3 excellent courses. Well presented and left feeling full and satisfied but not stuffed. Dont pass this gem of Kintyre by. Highly recomended. Well done Lads

My wife, daughter and I had a takeaway meal from here, whilst on holiday in the area. The whole process was extremely smooth; phone up, order food for a specific time, collect food at said time, enjoy food on the beach outside. For anyone not totally comfortable eating inside at this current point in time, it’s perfect, especially with the additional safety precautions the hotel has taken (mask wearing, hand sanitising station and collecting the food from a currently unused part of the hotel).The food was lovely and the service throughout welcoming and friendly. The beach setting was beautiful - but you could just as easily take the food home, or eat in the car if you’re not as lucky as we were with the weather. I would recommend, without hesitation.

We had three lovely takeaway meals here during our recent stay in Kintyre. Not yet feeling comfortable eating in a restaurant/pub (no reflection on the set up here as looked safe and well managed) it was really nice to be able to get some quality food to takeaway and enjoy on the beach. The Balmoral chicken and black pudding stuffed pork were excellent as were the desserts. Would definitely like to return and sample the full menu in the future when social distancing is over.

My sister had stayed here a few years ago and raved about it so I had been following them on FB. When our planned trip to New Zealand wasn't going to happen because of Covid, we thought we wouldn't be going anywhere for our 30th Anniversary! So, when I saw on FB that the hotel was tentatively opening for booing from mid July, I thought I would take the chance and book.So very very glad I did. We could not fault the welcome and service we received from Nick, Ian and their team. The Covid measure were extremely good and I felt that theteam were keeping us safe. The room was lovely with a king size comfy bed. Plenty of room for our stuff. Great shower.The food, especially the breakfasts, was excellent: porridge with jam and cream! Green eggs and ham (spinach, cheese and lemon sauce)! We decided to eat dinner there for the 3 nights we stayed in case it was difficult to find places open nearby and we weren't disappointed. I had one of the best burgers I have ever had and the haddock batter was light and crisp.The position of the hotel with direct access to the beach was fabulous! The views over the sea were just amazing! We will definitely go back!

This place is a well kept well located secret. We stayed for 9 nights and every minute was wonderful. Ian, Nick and their team were awesome. They made us feel very welcome and nothing was a trouble. I can honestly say that I have stayed in 5 star Hotels around the country with my work in the past and these guys absolutely put those 5 star Hotels to shame. Service was amazing as was the food.The room was spotless well appointed and very comfortable. The en suite shower was fantastic.The thing that really stood out for us was the way they looked after our dog, she also got the full 5 star treatment including complimentary doggy chews in our room on arrival.Would we recommend this outlet to our friends and family? No problem at all and we plan to go back again for certain.

We had the most delicious fish and chips ever! With the most most stunning beach view. Great service, very welcoming and relaxed. Definitely be back again. Fabulous gin selection too.

ordered fish and chips for collection which came to £32 for 4 portions and we were so disappointed. The fish was an ok size but the batter was very thick and greasy. The chips were also disappointing. Would definitely avoid

Waited over an hour to order. Need more staff. Go elsewhere. Man at the door was rude as he must of been so stressed. Would not recommend. Lot of people complaining. Beer was good. Ladies were lovely.

We stayed just one night last weekend but wished it was longer. Ian & Nick were very welcoming & this place is a total gem! Right on the beach, fab views, great food & drink & the rooms are spotless & well presented. Good luck Ian & Nick we feel lucky to have stayed before the social lock down!

The reason we choose this hotel, it was dog friendly. When we arrived we knew straight away that owners were genuinely dog friendly people. The hotel was very friendly, warm . The food was excellent especially the Mexican night. The room had everything we would need and more with views across the Atlantic. Very clean. The conservatory was the perfect place to eat as it had views across the water from every window, We could have sat here all day, everyone was very welcoming and ideas of where to go with the dog was great. We will definately be going back. A perfect break thank you Ian and Nick and the rest of your teamJude Willie & Oreo

Exceptionally good cuisine, amazingly attentive and caring service, views to die for...all in all simply divine. Thank you xxx

Lovely food with generous portions. Staff very friendly and helpful. Good location by the harbour. Best to book a reservation it was very busy

Very dog friendly restaurant, excellent service and high quality food. Outside dining area is right on the most amazing beach.

Breakfast and dinner were so very good. Compliments to Ian the chef! Two nights of dining , lots of choice.

Well what can i say fabulous, amazing, didnt want to leavexxxThe lads were so lovely and also the staffBeautiful location, heaven, watching the sea roll in gently and the sunsettingDalmatian dogs, awwwww, Breakfast was superb, along with our dinner the night beforeJust felt like home and newly refurbished bedroom, comfortable bed and amazing showerxxDefinately come backx just wonderful

Having just returned from a relaxing winter break at Bellochantuy's Argyll Hotel. Iain, Nick & the rest of the team ensured that the hospitality, food & drink was always continually available, to a very high standard. The Argyll Hotel is dog friendly with several miles of coastline walks, adjacent to the mighty Atlantic Ocean. For 2019 the bed rooms will be completely refurbished, which will result in an even more enjoyable holiday experience for guests. The food served from breakfast to late evening meals, uses locally produced produce whenever possible.

Food is always great, service is always great. Went for dinner last night for about the 5th or 6th time and it was again, fantastic. Lovely friendly atmosphere and brilliant views from the restaurant.

This restaurant belongs to the Argyll Hotel and reservations are mainly made for house guests, but it's open to everyone. I had dinner (and breakfast) there while staying at the hotel, and it ws awesome. Food, drinks, service, atmosphere and the view - all great. I had the haddock for breakfast - highly recommend that as an alternative to the full Scottish or the salmon.

Good food, friendly service and a beautiful beach just a few steps away made this a wonderful evening.

My wife and I stayed here last friday night for 1 night bed & breakfast, and booked it through Booking.com Now I'm not brilliant on computers, it was last minute decision to go to Campbeltown. So I typed in B&B; Campbeltown and the Argyll came up £90 so it was booked.As I was booking it , there was only 1 room left so I had to act quick. We had our evening meal which was average, service was ok.

Came to the Argyll Hotel for a meal on a quite Wednesday evening, we hadn’t booked a table but there was room outside so we sat there. We ordered our food with no problems and our food arrived quickly and was very tasty ! However, a member of our group asked for mayonnaise for their burger and the waitress said she would go and get some, 20 minutes later we still didn’t have it. The same member of our group then went in to ask for the mayonnaise, by this point their food was then cold. We approached the waitress and asked very politely if it would be possible for a replacement burger, however they just said that they could warm it up in the microwave with no replacement. The waitress claimed that they were busy, even though two tables were in use, quite clear that they focus on the indoor restaurant and not people eating outside. Back outside whilst everybody else was finishing their meals a man came over, who i presumed to be the chef/owner came over and claimed that we had abused his staff and requested us to leave the premises. We were completely shocked as the meal had been lovely but the service was disgraceful. We then stressed to him that we had not been ‘abusive’ and in fact we had asked politely for a replacement meal, but was adamant that we leave ! This is the first time I’ve been kicked out of a restaurant for asking for some mayonnaise! Will never be returning ever

Having been to the Argyll several times this summer it is simply a glorious place to look over to the Paps of Jura on a warm sunny day the atmosphere the owners create is paid back and relaxing

Stayed for 2 nights. Rooms are clean but in need of upgrading which is on the plan. The whole hotel could do with a facelift but the service and the meals make up for the decor.

I could just compliment the chefs and hotel team on their excellent work and leave it at that. The building is suitably old with a comfortable feel. The notoriously dodgy internet and mobile phone services on the peninsular certainly made for an 'interesting' communications exercise. Not a bad thing really, it just means you have to communicate the old fashioned way and talk to people. The food is probably the best for many miles around, and they do have some intriguing dishes on offer. The location is of course why most folks will want to stay and the big bonus is that they really are a dog friendly place.

The breakfast and evening meal menus have a good and varied selection. Breakfast ranged from a full "scottish" to perfect poached eggs on toast. There are varied options of starters, main courses and deserts to choose from, we stayed 5 nights and didn't have the same item more than once.

another lovely break at the Argyll , even the rain,snow,wind and sun didn't spoil it food top notch as was the Gin :) I see a review moaning about average bistro fair I think you would be hard pushed for better at these prices in Kyntyre given the amount of return visitors they are doing something right

We enjoyed a pleasant meal with great sea views.

Excellent food with very friendly service in a restaurant with amazing views. Good quality food with no long wait and good service from the staff. Worth booking beforehand as it does get busy but if you’re near Campbeltown it’s well worth the effort

Had a nice meal at the Argyll Hotel, staff very friendly with a large quirky selection of cruet sets.

We Stayed in the caravan across the road and pop in for a couple of pints didn't know if was open at lunch or would of been in for lunch or a coffee must say it's a bit quirky but nice and friendly and locals are friendly too especially polo the fluffy pooch

We went one night last week with friends for dinner and had a fantastic meal. They do a 2 or 3 course meal for a very reasonable price and each of us thoroughly enjoyed our meals. The views beside the water were great and we even saw a lovely sunset. Will definitely go back again.

Lovely breakfasts, especially enjoyed the porridge and freshly made range of jams. Full cooked breakfast and green eggs with ham were delicious. Nice range of options for dinner, especially fish options. Good range of gins and wines to wash it all down. 😁

A little away from Campbeltown so most diners were residents. Does cater for non residents. Excellent varied menu. Specials on the day. Well served by attentive happy staff.

Visita regularmente para las bebidas y la comida, pero por desgracia hoy quedó bastante decepcionados. Había un cartel colgadas en la puerta de acceso indica que no sólo los residentes después de las 4 pm. Me pareció bastante decepcionante, especialmente en un día tan bonito. Hubiera sido bueno tener sentado en la terraza disfrutando del sol argyllshire.

Popped in last Saturday for lunch, warm welcome for us and our Grand Dug Pug, professional and friendly owners, who...

Vistas preciosas pero bastante normal menú tipo bistro. Ahorrar dinero, tomar un café junto a la ventana y luego continuar con su viaje.

A real gem. Great food, well presented and reasonably priced. Good wine list. Staff really friendly and welcoming. Location is stunning right on the beach. Well worth a visit or two.

Good quality and freshly prepared . Reasonable choice set menu to choose from to cater for most tastes. Comfortable surroundings with fantastic views across to Gigha and Jura

Fantastic location looking right on to the beach very romantic setting, food is very good and staff are wonderful hosts.

Regulars to this restraunt whenever a special occasion occurs within the family. Always a good range of food on the menu and always delicious. Good value for money with a friendly atmosphere and amazing views.

Excellent food served in a restaurant with some of the finest sea views in Scotland. One word of warning - try Ian's poached eggs in a spinach sauce, over natural smoked haddock, for breakfast and you will not want anything else to eat for the rest of the day.

Staff very friendly, beautiful setting over looking the Atlantic Ocean. Food was delicious, the steak pie was over flowing with steak. The haddock was very tasty too. Will definitely be back if in the area and fully recommend. Good value and a great pint.

Finding somewhere to eat in Campbelltown is not very easy at night but someone thankfully pointed us in the direction of the Artgyle Hotel with the promise of good, wholesome food.First impression was that of a typical seaside hotel, built in with the bricks, but once inside we could not have received a warmer welcome from the staff with the offer of high tea, a snack, dinner or a bar lunch. We opted for the table d'hote menu at £18.95 and my meal was anything but good wholesome food - it was much better than that.A starter of tasty baked cam£15.mbere was followed by a hugh helping of mushroom stroganoff - plua chips - leaving barely enough room for the chocolate fudge cake and cream. Coffee was also included and we enjoyed a very reasonable house Merlot for £!5, Service was excellent and the food piping hot.

Fabulous! Couldn’t have asked for anything more (except less dogs as my dogs are a nuisance with others!) Ian and Nick are the perfect hosts, and all their staff are so friendly. The hotel is right on a beautiful beach with wonderful views from both the patio and conservatory restaurant (and our room). The food was excellent, from the creamy porridge and full scottish breakfast to the haggis balls and the sticky toffee pudding served as part of the evening choices. We ate so much! The beds were very comfortable and I slept so well after all the good food and fresh air. Nick and Ian are in the process of improving areas of the hotel but it is still a lovely place to stay and I would definitely visit again. We did a 700 mile round trip to stay 3 nights!

Can't fault this restaurant. We ate here each night of our stay at the hotel. Food excellent, freshly cooked and very well presented. The views from the conservatory are stunning. Very good value for money.

Comfortable seating area and dining area with great views out to sea. Service was friendly and efficient. Excellent selection of soft drinks. Nice menu and food well seasoned and presented. Could not fault it and will definitely return.

Who could ask for more ? Excellent local produce transformed into mouthwatering and hearty dishes. Delightful and friendly staff and the most stunning beach side view of the Atlantic. Try it - you won't be disappointed !

We have visited this restaurant a number of times, set in a beautiful scenic location right on the beach the service is always really friendly, polite and pleasant, always striving to ensure your comfort. Good selection of ales, local and national, the steak pie is really good. The whole interior is nicely decorated, showcasing and selling some local artists work. Always a good atmosphere. Haven't made it to the folk night on the first Thursday of every month yet or any of the star gazing nights but we seriously hope to make these sometime!

We had a lovely dinner here. My husband had the venison pie which he said it's was scrumptious the best he has had in a long time. We enjoyed our puddings too. The conservatory dining room is so cosy and relaxing. The views are amazing. Staff so friendly and helpful. So a great place to eat.

Lovely meal, the special was a chorizo and prawn risotto which was delicious. The staff were very chatty

Local family group (birthday) including 8 adults and 4 children pre booked for lunch. Restaurant area and outside terrace not busy with two small groups inside and one or two outside. Initial small drinks order took 15 minutes to arrive. Waiting staff avoided taking food order until they eventually accepted the order over the bar. Food (basic pub grub) arrived without undue delay from the time of order but over an hour from the time of arrival due to the initial unwillingness of staff to take the order. The waiter conceded that an "unexpected group had delayed things" whilst gesturing towards a group of 4-6 in the otherwise quiet restaurant (!). 3 of the ordered dishes did not arrive with the rest. 2 of these eventually followed but the third did not appear until everyone else had finished. Despite the waiters protestations that he had "written the order twice" it was clear that the order had not been taken correctly, probably due to his initial unwillingness to take the order from the group as a whole.The waiter was found to be rude, unhelpful and not at all interested in our experience throughout which culminated in one of our party being told to "sit down as I can't be bothered to listen to you any longer" when querying the status of the missing last dish at the bar. Food was of standard quality, no frills but edible. All dishes were priced fairly highly for the quality on offer and in comparison to other local establishments. Toilets clean but 'fragrant' (which unfortunately also reaches the adjacent passageway between the main entrance and rear restaurant area). Restaurant and terrace areas clean and fairly well presented. Great views and access to the beach and seafront (which is the only thing worthy of the single star awarded in this review). Overall, our group's experience was universally appalling and we will not be returning. A second staff member who seemed to be the manager was apologetic on our departure but was conspicuous by his absence during the pantomime that preceded. I would urge visitors to the area to continue to Campbeltown / Machrihanish where there are a number of similar establishments who will offer a decent level of service / value for money, as well as superior overall quality.

My wife & I stayed for 2 nights 18-19 March 2016. Staff were friendly and went out of their way to make our stay very enjoyable. (Dog Friendly Hotel).The meals served from breakfast to dinner are to be recommended as fresh local produce is often used within the kitchen.The bar is also well stocked with local malt whisky's and a selection of fine ales.

We are back this is the best hotel on the kintyre peninsular 10 out of 10 the staff treat you like royalty and the Christmas dinner is superb just can't stay away

A lovely location, practically on the beach, good beer and friendly staff. Real ale is not easy to find in Kintyre, many pubs only selling fizzy beer so this place is wonderful. Highly Recommended.

A fantastic location with breathtaking views topped off by the best Sunday roast we've had. The lovely staff were the icing on the cake.

The food here was great - good choices as well and great service. The stand out thing for me though was the view. Amazing! The decor (including lounges to move to, to have your after dinner coffee) and 'games room' were also really good touches and added to the fabulous ambience.

The view from this outstanding restaurant is simply breath-taking! Watching the sun set over Gigha, Islay, and Jura on a glorious September evening is a sight that is hard to beat!Had a wonderful meal here with my brother and his wife. The service throughout (by Peter and a young lady) was attentive and fun, and added to our enjoyable experience.Lots of interesting choices on the menu, with most dishes featuring ingredients from the surrounding area. The food was fresh, delicious, and outstanding value – recommend the goats’ cheese and roasted red pepper mousse with Arran oatcakes and red onion marmalade, the steak pie, and the affogato.Loved the artwork around the restaurant/bar area, especially the Kintyre seascapes by Senja Brendon.

Lovely place, fantastic owners and staff, food very good, beach at the bottom of the garden and very very dog friendly! If eating in dogs only allowed in the bar but we are always made to feel very welcome and the dogs even more so! One of our favourite Kintyre places and our dogs agree!

Came in mid afternoon for a coffee, after having seen a favourable review on TripAdvisor . Scones were excellent, although a bit on the small side, but staff were very friendly. Beach location absolutely gorgeous so booked a table for diner the following evening. Not a huge menu, but food once again was good standard fare. Didn't quite have the X factor to make it excellent but will probably visit again.

Arrived late but Nick waited for us & kept the restaurant open till we got there & the meal he produced was very good.

great hotel with awesome food i went to a family wedding there and the food was amazing the owners are friendly and very attentive a great menu with lots to choose from and the view from the dining room is out of this world

A return visit to the Argyll hotel and restaurant . Both excellent as was our last visit. Great service from owners and staff. Good value fixed price 2 and 3 course meals. Local ale and great views from the conservatory of Islay and Jura . Will return again . Thank you .

I am very hard too please but the staff and the hotel get top marks the room was lovely the bed was really comfy the food at breakfast was spot on and the views were top class the staff and management were so good they really couldn't do enough for us we will be back if you are in argyll try to book this hotel you won't be disappointed

Excellent traditional food with a fantastic view across the beach to the western isles.The choice of dishes on offer would be acceptable to all tastes, but the real emphasis was on Scottish, local produce. The smoked Haddock breakfast was superb!

Trying to find a good cuppa coffee in Campbeltown proved difficult. The Argyll solved the problem. Right beside the harbour, nice comfy seating and pleasant, welcoming staff. Large coffee was very large. Cakes were not home made but good, pity no home made scones.

We were lucky to have a glorious sunset, but even without that blessing this is a charming room to eat in. The room is all glass, which makes the views of the beach and the ocean palpable. The service is unfailingly friendly and the prices are reasonable. The food is better than average and this is one of the best places to eat in Kintyre.

The relaxing atmosphere the stunning views the sunsets the food and the service.The walks along a clean sandy beach.Disliked leaving and going home.

Stopped in here en route to Machrihanish and was delighted with excellent service, lovely food and delicious home baking. The view from the restaurant is unbeatable. It was a true highlight of our holiday.

Very Good Food at excellent location, views are amazing - we had lunch 2 course for (I think it was) £13.95...very good service - everyone very friendly and helpful - will return when next in the area

Whilst in Argyll, back home with my family for Christmas we decided to head down the Toon, great day out a walk on the beach, we built up an appetite, we were hoping to eat somewhere else but they were closed, this was my first time at the Argyll, we were made to feel so welcome by all the staff, they were great with my 17 month old Daughter who fell in love with the dog, the food was great, tasty and piping hot, service was second to none great job guys, you will certainly see us back again, mind you it is a long way to go for lunch my wife and daughter and I live in Suffolk.Keep up the good work

We had a great meal over looking a beach in Scotland, never thought I would say that. The food was great and the view was amazing. Well worth the journey.

Loved everything about the Argyll hotel Bellochantuy. The food, bedrooms,friendliness of Nick, Ian, Katie, Margaret and the rest of the staff. No dislikes at all. We all had a great relaxing time from 3rd to 6th October, and the location is fantastic. Hope to be back soon. Kind regards to all. Anne & Bill Blakey and Margaret & Gordon Hamilton

The location of this restaurant is outstanding. On a sunny day you could be forgiven for thinking you were in Florida. The food is lovely and reasonably priced - traditional in style and something to suit everyone. The breakfasts are cooked to order and served by the friendly owners. Recommended for a romantic evening with chilled Prosecco watching the sun going down

Always enjoy visiting the Argyll now Nick & Ian have taken over. We often pop in for a bite of lunch and let the dogs run on the beach. Always friendly and welcoming and nothing is too much trouble. Have been a couple of times in the evening and the sunsets from the conservatory are amazing! Recommend!

We stayed at a local campsite (Killgruer Camp Site) and visited the hotel for a drink with our dogs. We were made to feel very welcome by the owners - both us and the dogs. We were so impressed by the place we decided to book in for a meal. The decor is lovely and the atmosphere is very relaxing - the views are out of this world, especially if you catch the sunset!Our meal was delicious and very well presented with very generous portions. The service was quick, friendly and efficient. The value for money was excellent.We enjoyed our meal so much that we decided to return for a meal again on our last night and again were not disappointed.

We spent a few days early in July at the Argyll Hotel. The view from the front deck is world class. Very peaceful and lots of beach to explore. The bar has a well selected collection of single malts and some good wines - all for a reasonable price. Breakfasts each morning were prepared with attention to detail with ultra fresh ingredients. Rooms are small but comfortable. Our hosts worked hard at pleasing each guest. They were superb! We will recommend this hotel to all our friends travelling to this part of Scotland. We used public transport (bus!) to travel to Campbeltown each day and the schedules worked well for us. The bus stop right in front of the hotel.

The choice of food was excellent and of fantastic quality. The views from the restaurant were unbeatable.

The Argyll Hotel has it all.....wonderful hosts, cracking view and great food. A must when staying in Kintyre.

Excellent value meals ,great portions.The steak pie was phenomenal !! We where staying at the hotel and enjoyed everything we had to eat there,The wine list was very good and reasonably priced.

Was very impressed by the food and service provided for an evening meal ,together with the excellent Loch Fyne Real Ale. I will recommend this place to friends as somewhere to enjoy traditional Scottish Fayre if they visit Kintyre.

Had a beautiful lunch here recently and it was delicious. The service was faultless and the atmosphere was great. We popped in on a rainy day and the views from the conservatory were still beautiful. Had it not been as wet we would have loved to have utilised the beach right outside the conservatory. Would definitely recommend this place to everyone.

Dropped in for a quick lunch after a game of golf. Have visited several times in the past but what a transformation. It has all been redecorated and it is lovely. Very welcoming and lovely and cosy. Food was excellent and served quickly with lovely friendly service. Will certainly be back and trying to plan an overnight stay.

We arrived at approx 5.30pm on a Saturday evening(we hadn't booked and dinner service begins at 5.30pm) We were greeted with a friendly handshake by the lovely owners who made us feel very at home and were interested about where we lived and what had brought us to their establishment. An icing on the cake for me personally as a massive animal lover is that they had two gorgeous dalmatians, whose names escape me, which was a lovely touch but I suppose if you don't like dogs the owners would have whisked them away to their beds out of sight. The decor was quite chic and I loved the comfy red seats which were perfect for sitting with a morning espresso and a newspaper. The dining chairs were not so inviting as they were fold up and lacked the same appeal as the rest of the deco(just my opinion). We asked to split the starter of vegetable tempura and when it came we actually thought they had made a mistake and given us a portion each, however when we checked the bill this showed us that we had only paid for one starter. As vegetarians we were happy to see an unusual vegetarian dish, a bean bake smothered in a rich tomato sauce with veg and potatoes. The portion was ample and the bean bake was full of flavour so top marks. For dessert my partner had apple crumble with ice cream and I chose the Affogato, which I loved. All in all I would recommend this place and I really felt that the owners deserve to do well as it is clear that they really care.
