Excellent accomodation in a quiet and peaceful location.

We stayed at Upper Alta a couple of weeks ago and enjoyed all aspects of our 5 night stay (apart from the varible weather!) As previously, the accomodation was clean throughout and everything we needed was provided. Access to the accomodation is up an outside flight of steps to the first floor so may not be suitable for those with limited mobility. Also note that parts of the driveway can be quite slippery in places when wet. Although we stayed as a couple, the second bedroom will comfortably accomodate two adults or children. A travel cot fora very young child would probably fit in the second bedroom but it would more easily fit in the main bedroom. Views from the loung/dining of the west kyle and upper Bute are excellent and the small balcony is a very pleasant place to sit and watch the boats go by! Surrounding area is good for walking athough car transport is the only realistic option to travel further afield since the bus service is infrequent.

Upper Alta, Tighnabruaich

We spent the first week of September 2023 in Upper Alta and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Upper Alta is a lovely apartment in a beautiful location and has stunning views. The apartment is very comfortable, thoughtfully organised, well-equipped, nicely decorated, and impeccably clean. We especially appreciated the fact that we were able to bring our little dog, who had a wonderful time. We wouldn’t hesitate to make a return booking.

Felt perfectly at home

We had a wonderful time staying at Upper Alta and were sad to leave. The stunning view left us speechless. A very tranquil, relaxing and homely environment to stay in. If we ever get the chance, we'd love to come back.
