Fodor's Expert Review Taychreggan Hotel

Peace and quiet are the big selling points of this lovely country-house hotel beside Loch Awe. Once a drovers' inn, the whitewashed building is surrounded by lawns and wooded gardens. Inside are stone walls, flagstone floors, cozy rooms decorated in soft russet tones, and a very good restaurant. Activities include fly-fishing and kayaking on the loch, and mountain bikes can be provided.
