The Galley of the Lorne Inn was used as a drovers inn, the inns were essential to the local community. Until modern times farming was the main occupation and cattle from the off lying islands, Jura, Scarba, etc., were landed near Craignish point and driven along the peninsula to the mainland. Of the three inns that ‘supported’ the drovers only the Galley or Lorne Inn, dating from 1680 survives in Ardfern. The newly constructed Restaurant and Function Room has massive picture windows giving all diners unparalleled, breathtaking views across Loch Craignish. The Galley of Lorne offers delicious and stylish dining, prepared with local produce. There is a very comfortable lounge bar to enjoy a drink before or after your meal in the company of our spectacular carved oak lions. The public bar is in the oldest part of the Inn and is a characterful place to meet, have a drink and relax by the roaring fire. Guests can select and sample some of the inns collection of 50 carefully chosen whiskies and fine wines. In the warmer months enjoy the outdoor area where you can enjoy your meal and drinks, supplemented with a spectacular view of Loch Craignish. The Galley of Lorne has a lovely outdoor terrace deck with spectacular views over the country and loch. There is also a pleasant and relaxing beer garden to enjoy your drink. Free Wi-Fi throughout the hotel. Free car parking. Pets are welcome.
