I was a bit worried after booking by phone as the person I spoke to seemed very inflexible about arrival times (I was arriving by public transport on a Sunday!) But once at the Positano I was very happy - the room was large and airy and although on a ground floor there was little outside noise. The breakfast room... More

Very nice room for a bed and breakfast, clean beds , modern rooms. To top it off free wifi. Breakfast included and cooked before your very eyes and a excellent remedy for... More

The place is a bit difficult to find, but once you get there, you don't have to worry no more. We stayed just for one night in a twin room wich included a private bathroom. Everything was clean and nice, although there was a slightly annoying repeating noise which I was not able to identify. It was not a big... More

Booking directly with the hotel via email proved easy and quick. The directions given to find the Positano were excellent and we found it easily. The room we were given was lovely; spotlessly clean with homely touches without being fussy. The large shower room had the best towels I have ever seen. (and I've stayed in several 5 star hotels)....

This is a lovely B&B well situated for travel to all parts of western Scotland. The room was spotlessly clean. The owners were so friendly and helpful and the breakfast was fantastic ("full Scottish" is to be recommended!) - kept us "going" all day! We found the information about the local area very helpful (provided in our room) but the... More

We had a lovely stay at Positano B&B. The atmosphere in the breakfast room in the morning was cosy and warm. Carmen and Achille treated us very kindly. The room was not the best of rooms we have ever had, but the nice atmosphere made up for that.

I stayed here for 3 nights in July with husband and children (aged 11) and will deeply recommend it! The owners are wonderful and friendly people who make you feel very welcome, the place is tidy, clean and very delicately decorated. It is located near a busy road but even with windows open we all slept like babies. It is... More

We really enjoyed our 4 night stay at this family run B&B. We had a lovely, clean room with a very large bathroom and the friendliness of the family members who prepared our breakfast (Mother and Uncle of the owner) certainly made breakfast time a very tasty and amicable experience. The layout of the dining area also allowed us to... More
