We stayed for 2 nights in May 2013. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the hotel itself was clean and welcoming. We had dinner in the hotel and the food was excellent. There wasn't a huge choice, but there was enough to choose from. We both had halibut, and it was cooked beautifully. Unfortunately, it didn't stop raining,... More

I stayed at the Knipoch Hotel from 9 March until 11 March for my big birthday. Myself and my husband had a wonderful time. The hotel has lots of charm and character. We stayed in a room right opposite the loch. The room was spacious, well kept, nice and clean. The bathroom was also spotless. Breakfast was plentiful and very... More

We chose the Knipoch because we were visiting the Isle of Seil (a must) and because it is dog friendly. We stayed Bed and Breakfast for one night. Wouldn't hesitate to stay again. The hotel was very quiet but the room was fine, breakfast excellent, service very good and it WAS dog friendly with some nice walks from the hotel.... More

We were lucky enough to be invited to a wedding that was held at the Knipoch Hotel this weekend. It was a stunning location, the food was just wonderful and the atmosphere of the house was friendly, comfortable and first class. Very attentive staff (who were mostly family ) a beautiful old building, similar to The Manor House Hotel in... More

I stayed here for my Birthday a few weeks ago. My boyfriend booked a weekend away for us. For me, I don't think it was worth the money. It is very dated, and oddly quiet! The only other guests were OAP's, which I think the hotel is more suited to! The room was basic, old, in need of refurbishment. The... More

Good food. Good location - only make sure that you sleep upstairs . The noise that filters down to my room was incredible and very annoying. Any footsteps are magnified as booms. I did call reception and they kindly called the people upstairs to tread softly? Staff were friendly and despite the noise problem I would recommend it.

during our trip through scotland we booked this hotel, which is a bit outside of the city. overlooking the lake, it is a quiet place despite the road next to it (yes double glazing has found its way to scotland). the countryhouse lounge is an ideal place to sit with a book and one of the 200+ malt scotch/whiskeys. dinner...

Looking for a hotel in Oban, we arrived in this hotel by chance and were very happy about it. We were very pleased to be there instead of downtown Oban; the location is wonderful, with beautiful views on the loch, nice room and excellent service. Very good dinner. I wish we had stayed even longer

A great place to stay being a few miles south of Oban in a lovely location on the loch side. Don't worry about the main road in front of the hotel, it is very quiet at night and the hotel is set well back so it isn't a problem. There are some great walks from the hotel itself giving stunning... More

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Nestling beside Loch Feochan in Argyll, Scotland, lays Knipoch Hotel (pronounced neepoch -och as in loch). This four star country house hotel is privately owned and run by the Craig family.We opened Knipoch as a hotel in 1981 when the original building was refurbished with the reception, kitchen and bedroom wing being added.Prior to this it was our family home with a history. In 1592, Campbell, Thane of Cawdor was assassinated here at the "house of Knipoch in Lorne".In England as well as Scotland, hotels vary and individually owned hotels each have a personality. At 22 rooms (including suites), Knipoch Hotel is small enough to care for our guests personally, yet large enough to be a hotel. ... more   less
