    Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links !

    Gorgeous part of the Highlands with good transport links ! Ferries and Trains ! The train journey is spectacular and worth every Penny and minute of the 5 hours from Glasgow or 2 hours plus from Fort William … I’m not a train spotter by any means or a Harry Potter fan but this journey as always been on my travel bucket list and did not disappoint! Good bar / restaurant … great value great food at the top of the hill and friendly locals !! Be aware as you’d expect not a lot open in the depths of winter!! But enough and how I personally like it !!

    The scenery was breathtaking, locals so friendly and helpful. Only downside several places were closed due to staff shortages. Hotel was fantastic but the staff, the two Fiona's and Pawel were wonderful, above and beyond helpful

    Mallaig is at its heart an old fishing town which has seen that part of its self-image eroded by the economics of fisheries across the land. Meanwhile it has become popular because of the steam railway and Harry Potter. Though this has improved the economy it feels like the place begrudges this new found dimension and would prefer to revert to its quieter fish-focussed past. Some of the restaurants feel like they are profiteering - £11 for 4 tiny pieces of salt and pepper squid slapped on the table is indicative. Overpriced dishes and underwhelming service. Is it me or do the staff in the hostelries and shops project an air that says they've had enough and want to scuttle off for their own vacation? They need to decide to up their game or move over for someone with more stamina, energy and understanding of customer service. Not somewhere for which I will hold fond memories. The exception to all this is the host of the pod who was bright and cheerful and could not be more helpful.

    Plenty of places to eat.

    Plenty of places to eat. Mallaig gets busy when the steam train(think Harry Potter) from Fort William arrives. Surprisingly, many shops were closed on Saturday morning. Great smoked fish and shellfish from Andy Race fish merchant, but shop not open on Saturday. Ferry trips to Eigg, Rum, Skye and Knoydart(loch Nevis)

    It has all the bustle of a busy ferry and fishing port. It has a huge number of cafes, restaurants and tourist facilities. Great rail and road communications. Lovely circular walk above the town - great views.

    Extremely well equipped kitchen, plus a few little extras to make life easier such as butter, bread, some lovely pastries, a bottle of wine - lovely personal touches we were not expecting. Father Stan was a fantastic host and the whole booking process/collection of keys was so easy - he responds super quick to any enquiries. The location is stunning and the accommodation itself exceeded our expectations. Lots of mod cons and a lovely big bathroom!

    We had a one night stay prior to our early ferry the next morning. The staff were very friendly and our room was very clean and comfortable and appeared to have been recently refurbished. We had a lovely breakfast in the morning which was made to order by their chef who also cooked a couple of sausages for our dog. We will definitely stay here again when sailing from Mallaig in the future .

    Perfect base to use the car ferry to Skye. 45 pounds round trip for family of 4 and mid-size SUV. Apartment is 2 minutes from ferry terminal. Accommodation is comfortable and clean on a quiet street. Equipped to self cater although we did not.. They have added a hanging rack to dry laundry if you need to use their washing machine.

    Great location in Mallaig. Rooms were clean and attractively presented with en suite shower and toilet. It was an old hotel so had no lift, but the stairs were manageable. Dinner in the bar was very pleasant and the staff went out of their way to provide a hot breakfast at 8 am so that we could catch the ferry to Skye.

    We loved how comfortable and cosy the glamping pod was - we came to Mallaig for hiking and running, etc., so it was great to come back to a quiet, beautiful and warm pod (with a stunning view!) in the evenings, to rest up for the rest of the trip.

    The location can't be beat as it is right next to the train station and very close to the ferries. It was central to everything I wanted to do in Mallaig, as a base for visiting Skye, Inverie and to visit the many shops and eateries in Mallaig.

    The hotel has a lot of character and is quite large in size. It is located in a convenient location - close to stores, restaurants, the ferry and the train. The staff at the check-in desk were very nice. Parking facilities were great!

    Perfect size and location, had everything we needed. They even provided oat milk for tea when I messaged to say we were vegan! We only stayed a few nights but feel like we got a lot out of Mallaig - and would definitely come back 😊

    Really lovely staff, very helpful and informative. We had to book last minute due to a cancelled ferry service and they were very accommodating. Mallaig can be a quiet place out of season (like most places) which can be very nice.
