Ashbank Hotel Restaurant in Argyll & Bute

Nice friendly local pub with lovely owners / staff and views across the golf course. They do not serve food here, only drinks.

We stayed at Carradale Bay Caravan site for a week and the Ashbank was our preferred spot for a few early evening drinks after a day exploring. Welcoming place with helpful and friendly owners in Sharon and John who were interesting to talk to and full of local knowledge. They weren’t doing food at the time but recommended the Drumfearne Guest House for an evening meal - which was excellent. We look forward to visiting again when we return to Carradale. Only sorry we didn’t get to thank them and say goodbye on our last night.

Excellent pub, nothing too much trouble and excellent owners, a nice and varied drinks available, highly recommended 👍👍

We sat out for a drink in the evening. They were very friendly and it was a nice location. Covid secure and a pleasant place to visit.

A small B&B that was spotless and well organised. The breakfasts were delicious and the owners friendly and knowledgeable. The beds were extremely comfortable. However, the room was small and the electric sockets were sparse with one broken. The wardrobe contained the tea tray (!) but the kettle needed to be put in the floor to boil. The hot tap was broken. The only non-residents toilet was adjacent and it was off putting to hear people through the wall urinating (and worse)! It was however, good value and we were well looked after.

We stayed here for 2 nights The owners were a delight Very friendly and helpful The breakfast was amazing Nice and clean Felt safe also Lovely places to visit

The people who run the Ashbank were very friendly and welcoming, especially in the current climate. They could not do enough to make us feel welcome. Would definitely visit the next time we're in Carradale.

Wonderful hotel where the owners Sharon and John make you feel very welcome! Breakfast first class and everywhere spotless! Fab!

This snug hotel has really great food served by a fantastic couple. The food was really great, hot and nice sized portions. I would highly recommend eating here if you are staying anywhere in the area. Make sure you book!

John and Sharon couldn't do enough to make us welcome and take care of us.We had a very comfortable sleep and the breakfast was excellent,lots of local produce.We will definiately be back and will stay longer next time. Thanks again from Mary Roddy and Ruairidh.

les hôtes sont à l'écoute de nos besoins ou restrictions sur le plan alimentaire. La nourriture est sans fioritures mais fraîche et délicieuse

We were a party of six included tw children and we all thoroughly enjoyed our three course meals. No complaints from anyone. The chicken salad was especially delicious and the pies were reported to be great by the others. I would recommend the Kintyre Suprise dessert...delish... Also excellent choice of relatively local Loch Fyne ales...xx

Good off road parking made arrival easy. Very friendy welcome and shown to room in proper fashion carrying our case. Room clean, comfortable and with a view. Stayed for an excellent dinner in the bar/restaurant (steak pie to die for!). Friendly atmosphere in bar and all joining in conversations including friendly locals = felt at ease and at home.Breakfast was great, good selection and plenty of it. All the advice on the local area that you could want - not just leaflets thrown at you but a truly personal service.Can't wait to go again.

Came here on a recommendation from a neighbour in the village. Jim served and Sharon cooked. The food was unfussy and tasty, classic plates of hearty food ideal after a days walking.Stand out plates were the homemade bread, Kintyre plate and sticky toffee pudding. Drama of whisky are excellent value and there is a good selection of bottled beer. The highlight though was the warmth of welcome by Jim and later Sharon. I genuinely felt at home.

Stayed here as part of a group of 7. The hotel was under some renovation at the rear but caused us no difficulty. The rooms were basic but clean and comfortable. We had a very warm welcome from our hostess and there was a very relaxed feel to the place and it was more like home than a hotel. We were provided with an excellent breakfast the next morning and thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Proprietor was charming and efficient, despite having one arm in a sling! Food was decent if not outstanding. Worth a visit for dinner - not sure about staying at the hotel.

Booked an evening meal last minute.

We waren door de buren doorgestuurd naar dit hotel voor een maaltijd. Hier zaten vier man in de bar annex restaurant welke de tafels ruim in beslag hadden genomen. Ook hier was men volgeboekt (op dinsdagavond?) en werd er totaal geen moeite gedaan om wat te regelen. We moesten op donderdag maar terugkomen. We zijn dus onverrichter zaken afgedropen.

Atmosphere and service very pleasant, friendly and welcoming. Lovely food, family-friendly and my son claims it's the best sticky toffee pudding he's tried yet! They also do lunches, but these have to be pre-booked. Our favorite meal of the holiday, all in all!

Had a very enjoyable meal in this very small but ever so friendly restaurant. Hosts could not do enough for us. Homemade bread lovely!

Non c'è dubbio, se volete mangiare qualcosa a Carradale precipitatevi qui. Abbiamo preso un piatto di pesce e uno di carne (pollo) e siamo usciti molto soddisfatti, specialmente per la meravigliosa compagnia dei gestori, che sono disponibili, accoglienti, simpatici, ma soprattutto bravissimi a cucinare! Il salmone che mi hanno preparato era buonissimo!

Nuestros recuerdos de nuestra estancia en el Ashbank rodean la amabilidad de los anfitriones mina, Sharon y John. Después de un paseo por la tarde tarde al puerto que nos vio volver al hotel y nos llamabas a unirse a ellos para una bebida; era como sentarse para charlar con viejos amigos.

We were staying at the hotel and after a long days driving ate in and we were not disappointed. Coupled with Sharon and Johns hospitality it was a lovely night

Nos alojamos con Sharon y John en el Ashbank 2 noches recientemente. Acogedora habitación cómoda y comida increíble y masas. Ambos Sharon y John se aseguró de que tuviéramos todo lo que necesitábamos, el perro Mr Darcey, llevamos también disfrutó su estancia :-D

They do great lunches and evening meals , the owners Sharon and John are very helpful and friendly, we lunch there once a month, always a treat .

Yes, we not only slept we also dined there. And had a very nice evening with a few chats with the owners. Just great!

Es gibt wenig Plätze, deshalb hatten wir einen Tisch bestellt. Das Essen war in Ordnung. Erwähnenswert war das sehr nette...

My partner and I stayed with our children and 2 dogs at the Ashbank. The rooms were welcoming with more than adequate facilities - loved the bedding. The bed was extremely comfortable - I slept better than I had in months! The food was excellent - both breakfast and evening meal. The whole family (including the dogs!) were made to feel very welcome. The owners were very friendly and eager to ensure we were comfortable and relaxed during our stay. I would recommend for either a break away or a meal if you are just passing! We are already planning our next visit!

Visited here for a meal and the service was delightful! I would also recommend booking ahead of your visit as it is rather small and space is limited. The food wasn't great and seemed store bought and very salty. We won't be back but glad we visited.

Bon choix de produits, et en plus de bonne explication en Français par la patronne, Ici vous demandez, si ils ont, ils font ! Vraiment un bon moment, bonne bière local, et bonne gamme de Whisky !

Enjoyable food and a lovely breakfast for vegetarians which is either too much or just right! Try the stuffed the peppers.

A good range of home cooking available. Great portion sizes and nothing is too much trouble. If they've got it, you can have it.

We popped in here for a drink while cycling through Carradale. We were given a warm welcome by the owners, who have recently taken over the business. They have a good selection of local beers, and the bar area is very comfortable with Wifi available. We look forward to our next visit!

Great location, the bar is cosy and the staff are very pleasant, great food and overall a great wee place to stay

Always excellent food and service with a smile. Prices are competitive and catering for a larger party is never a problem for the girls.

Stayed here for a night while walking the Kintyre Way - the rooms are not very spacious but comfortable and clean. We had both dinner and breakfast in the Hotel and enjoyed both very much - also due to the really warm and friendly service.

We stayed in a cottage outside the village and came here for a meal. The welcome was warm and friendly and we were given a seat in the dining room with no fuss, we did not book, just walked in off the street. The food was hot and happy pub grub. No complaints and would go back again.

great food and excellent choice, nothing was too much trouble for the lady owners. great relaxed atmosphere realy enjoyed our meal at the ashbank.

We stopped in here whilst travelling round Kintyre by Motor bike, The rooms were warm and cosy and the owners very friendly.A full Scottish breakfast saw us on our way the next day...

Enjoyed the relaxed atmosphere of the friendly bar and resturant, food was good and locally sourced, the whisky range in the bar second to none

We popped in fr a drink and it was a great atmosphere and a great pit stop

While touring Kintyre we were looking for a place to stop for refreshments. There were plenty of B&B's but few cafes on the back roads.We stopped here because the sign indicated there was a cafe. There is a small bar/cafe/restaurant at the front of the B&B. It was just what we wanted and the staff were very friendly and made us just what we needed. We would have liked to have had the time to had a full meal here and sample what else was on the menu; another time perhaps.
