“What a location!”

Reviewed 15 October 2012

Shearings give amazing value - and we thoroughly enjoyed our self-drive week at Gairloch. Okay, the hotel is fairly basic - it must be so difficult maintaining Victorian buildings, especially those exposed to the Scottish elements - but we'd a great time, were very comfortable, ate well and felt we'd certainly had our money's worth. The location of the hotel... More

“The Best Shearings Hotel”

Reviewed 2 October 2012

We have just returned from a Shearings Holiday at the Bay Gairloch Hotel. We have tried a number of Shearings Hotels and found this was the best of the bunch. We paid a bit extra to get a sea view and it was brilliant. The room was clean and well furnished. The TV was a bit small but we did... More

Thank you for taking the time to review your holiday at the Gairloch Hotel, I am glad you you enjoyed it and found our wonderful location so rewarding, I can only concur with your views on the trip around Applecross More

My sister & I came to Gairloch last year and this years holiday was just as great - the success was again down to the same Shearings driver we had Stuart Smith from the Isle of Wright. We could not believe our luck at having him again he is a great asset to the company nothing was too much trouble... More

The title takes care of the scenery. We have been on a fair few Shearings holidays and this one is up there with the best of them. The journey lasted three hours longer than it should have done as there was an accident on the M6. We arrived at the hotel after eleven at night, but were pleased to find... More

Spent four nights(five days) at the Gairloch Hotel The last week in August.Although I payed extra for a sea view,but the room was basic, and needed a face lift.The tv was minute,the one sash window had a mind of It's own,and the bathroom didn't have an extractor fan(which is a basic requirement)The majority of the decor in the hotel needed...

Thank you for your comments, I am glad you enjoyed the food, drinks vouchers and our wonderful location, most people find the small charge levied for a sea view a worthwhile investment. Both myself and my deputy were available throughout your stay and welcome and direct feedback More

“Shearings....caring for profits, not people!”

Reviewed 22 September 2012

I booked this trip for my Father who walks with a walking aid and tried very hard before I booked to ensure it would be suitable, not many stairs, room with a walk in shower etc but no one was the slightest bit interested in helping, least of all the special help desk! All I was told, for months was... More

Thank you for your review, the practise within Shearings is to send the list of those booked ten days prior to arrival for the hotel to allocate rooms taking into consideration all requests received, this allows the hotel to allocate rooms looking at overall requests and overall availability and I am glad we were able to satify your fathers need...

“Cold and Tired”

My wife and I spent one night at the Bay Gairloch Hotel at the end of August 2012. The lobby and rooms need a lot of TLC with finishes worn and stained - it felt institutional. Our room faced the bay and was of a good size but corridor and adjacent stair noises were most distracting. At check-in they tried... More

Thank you for your comments, as at the time I apologised for the problem with the price quoted and happy was to be able to rectify prior to departure I note that that at no point during your stay did you raise any issue with service or the hotel More
