We didn’t have a booking but the restaurant fitted us in which we really appreciated. We were not disappointed the food was exceptional and so was the service. The menu is small, but perfect. We all ordered a different main course and none of us were disappointed. I have a starter again, beautiful and the rest of the party a dessert again fantastic. The complimentary soup was a nice touch too. It was the first evening of our stay and it could not have been any better. A really great restaurant. Thank you.

Wonderful place. I had read about the Corrour Estate & have stayed nearby for a number of years & wanted to go there last year but was not organised enough. Got the train up from Roybridge - double check that there is a return train as it would be an epic walk back - delicious lunch of soup & a venison burger with several pints of the Corrour Gold beer and caught the train back. The location is other worldly & must be about as remote as you can get in the UK. Well looked after by the charming team of ladies working there today and will definitely return

Really friendly family owed restaurant. We just stopped in for a quick bit to hold us over to dinner. I had the apple pie and my husband had a slice of some type of lemon pie/cake. The apple pie was good. I also had a large tea while my husband had coffee. Very relaxed environment. The owner was really friendly and has two dogs which are nice and mellow. There are snacks for sale already packaged for travel. We took some freshly baked snacks for later that night (i really do not remember what we had…only it was good). The restaurant offers local artist crafts for sale. We Recommend a stop in for a quick bit to eat.

Well, what can I say. Stayed here for two nights to attend a funeral. I knew it was going to be great when, arriving at 22 45, Kieron welcomed me and I climbed the stairs to my single room…..and the floors creaked. Allways a good sign of an excellent hotel when the floors do that, never failed me. Fantastic little room, attention to detail was superb. Breakfast was out of this world, skillfully prepared and beautifully presented. I didnt need lunch…….. Superb “wake” served for around 30 people , amazing soup, sandwiches, tea and coffee and chocolate pudding to die for, so light and guilt free ! Meal in the bistro for me, two cousins and my 9? year old Aunty after the wake.Ina could not have been more attentive. Enjoy this couples excellent service while you can, retirement beckons for them after 23 years !

I stayed for one night only - having heard about this place, and pounced on the single slot when I saw it. It's worth the drive up from Glasgow and ferry from Mallaig to get here even for one night: my room was spacious, beautifully furnished and very comfortable, with a seating area with a view of the amazing beach. The owner Sue is a warm, charming host and an absolutely amazing cook, providing a fantastic three-course dinner while sloshing wine into glasses and encouraging guests and other diners to relax and interact. Breakfast is awesome, as the Americans say. I hired a bike and sweated up (then down) the hill to get here, but don't be put off by that - the island taxi/minibus is always on-hand, and they do excellent tea and cakes at their base nearly next door - but that's another story.

One of if not the best Sunday roast I’ve ever had! 3 courses under £20 too. The pate is the best I’ve had, I had lamb main and my partner had beef, both spot on. Perfectly sized portions leaving you full but not uncomfortable. Brilliant service in a Covid safe environment. Compliments to the chef!

Went for an afternoon coffee with family. I've noticed from certain reviews that some people should really have been aware that this is a working marina... We were lucky enough to visit on an unseasonably hot and sunny day in October, particularly for Lochaber, so we ate outside. Coffee and cake all round was good. Coffees (and one tea) were great and well made. Cakes were delicious, though the carrot cake was a bit on the dry side. We put that down to it being late in the day, but will be something to consider if we go again. Staff could not have been more friendly, especially as we (and other visitors) were still seated after closing. I blame the fantastic weather. If you're really lucky, you can watch the Jacobite Express (sadly now better known as the train from that movie franchise) steam past on the adjacent level crossing!

As we were in the area, we booked an early dinner for my birthday. We were not disappointed. It was quite busy, but the three ladies were friendly and efficient. I had the rib eye steak, and my partner had steak pie. The portions were plentiful. I mentioned it was my birthday and they gave me a free drink. I opted to take the pudding with me, to which they obliged. Thank you for making my birthday a good one.

We stayed there for one night. Very cost with goats and geese. There was only a 5 course menu for 60. But very good, and worth the price. The owner was very kind, and transported us back to the great Glen Way. We would go there again.

Wedding party held here 25 years ago and returned for a celebration for my wife's 60th birthday. The hotel has been refurbished to a very high standard but keeping the impressive features of a Highland Baronial House. The quality of the food was excellent, great service by friendly staff. The location overlooking Loch Sheil and the monument comemorating the raising of the Standard in 1745 is unparalleled. An overnight stay for dinner, bed and breakfast iis not cheap but worth every penny.

It was such a pleasure to visit this cafe and a welcome contrast to the pre-paid accommodation ran by some racketeer at Ivy Cottage. We took one look at what was on offer and fled to next ferry to Mallaig. I went to school in Inverie in 1948- 49. when the priest had an affair with our teacher. He wnt on to become bishop of the Westrn Isles while she became an un-married mother

We visited Canna for a couple of nights in September during glorious weather. We'd only planned one meal at Cafe Canna. but we stopped in for lunch after disembarking the ferry the food was so magnificent we were back for lunch every day. The seafood platter is amazing, so fresh and superbly cooked and everyone is so friendly. It's worth the journey to Canna just for the cafe, we will be back!

Excellent food at very reasonable prices. I had the fish and chips one day and scampi the next, and both were delicious. The menu is very impressive and varied, considering the island location. Wash your meal down with a pint of the Isle of Eigg ale, it's smooth, tasty and full of flavour. (You can visit the brewery, which is located in the centre of the island). The cakes in the cafe are fresh and tasty too, and service to your table is quick and friendly. Enjoy the views over Castle Island while you eat or, if the weather permits, sit outside and take in the fresh sea air. Special shout out to Neil, who was friendly and efficient, and the whole team there has put together a fabulous bar /restaurant operation, the only one on the island. The coffee is excellent too. I can't wait to load my bicycle on to the train to Mallaig again, and return to this amazing island, where my first stop will again be the Galmisdale Bay cafe and bar. A pint of the Isle of Eigg ale please, Neil!
