  • "Had a great stay at Newton Hall with family and friends."

    Lovely rooms with great views. A home from home and the hot tub was great. We enjoyed the walks around Inveraray every day too. Also loved reading the history of this lovely house. We will be back

  • "We enjoyed, staying at Newton Hall."

    Little issues were solved quickly (Barbecue, missing pan), the rest was just good! Email contct was very fast, telephone hotline did not work at all. Place is sufficient for a group like us (14 to 15 people), a bigger group could see some issues a the dining table (18 will be a little difficult)

    Hi Frank, thank you for your feedback on your stay at Newton Hall! We're glad to hear that any issues were resolved quickly and that you enjoyed your time overall. We appreciate your insights about the dining table size and will take that into consideration for larger groups. We're also looking into the telephone hotline to ensure better service in the future.

  • "A great house for our group - a mixture of ages from 2-86 years to celebrate a special family birthday."

    The house had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Good communication from both the owner and the cleaning team. Great views of the loch from the front bedrooms and the window seats downstairs. Would recommend.

    Hi Sasha, Thanks for taking the time to leave us a review - and chatting with me on the phone. I'm delighted you all had a great time at Newton Hall and hope the weather gave you some great scenery, as you sat in the window seats, looking out across the loch! Thanks also for your 5/5 score in Cleanliness/Comfort/Facilities; I see that we lost a point on 'accuracy of listing'....thanks to your feedback, we will be able to ensure that the description is now updated. Do come back again next year, for a return visit! Many thanks, Jimmy Property Owner

  • "We had a fantastic break for 4 nights at Newton Hall in the Easter holidays."

    The owner was extremely helpful and courteous, calling us before the stay to make sure we had all the details we needed, run us through what the property offered, check out whether we had any specific requirements, and also give us info about the team they have available to help out during our stay (although we didn't need to call them - everything was fine!). The rooms were clean, relaxing and comfortable, and the views from the front of this property are spectacular - we hadn't clocked from the photos that the arched windows at the front have window seat cushions, and watching the sunrise over Loch Fyne with a morning coffee was magical. We also didn't realise quite how convenient it was going to be for local amenities - there's a well-stocked Co-Op literally 2 minutes walk from the back door, and it's only a short distance further to the George pub in the centre of Inveraray which serves a great menu of both good food and malt whiskies. We also had no problem organising a supermarket grocery delivery to here for the first night when we arrived. There's heaps of good walking nearby even if you're not an experienced mountaineer. We did a walk through the town and up to the watchtower in the old hill fort above Inveraray castle, which is a good, well-signed path to do with the kids: it's a fairly modest 220m or so up, but still gives you fantastic views over the loch and mountains from the top. Oh, and of course, the kids loved spending time with us in the hot tub! We only had a few nights when we could stay this time, but we really hope we get a chance to visit again in the future.

    Hi Paul, A huge thanks for leaving such helpful feedback for future guests...and for such a kind and glowing review of Newton Hall. I'm delighted you and your family had a fun stay and that you got plenty done during your short break. We would LOVE to have you all back again - why not bring some family friends next time as well?! Thanks again. Jimmy. Property Owner

The property

Resting on the banks of Loch Fyne overlooking the picturesque views of the mountains in Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park in Inveraray, Argyll and Bute, is Newton Hall.

This wonderful, renovated church benefits from nine well-appointed bedrooms, off-road parking to the rear, a hot tub and an idyllic setting with breath-taking views of the loch and close to local amenities; the perfect setting for families or groups of friends looking to explore Scotland with the option to bring two of their beloved canine companions.

Cross the threshold and head into the living/dining room where you can unwind on the plush sofas and window seats in front of the TV, ideal after a day full of exploration.

Later, head into the fully-equipped kitchen where you can rustle up tasty meals that the whole family can enjoy around the dining table.

End the evening outside in the bubbling hot tub before heading back inside to wash off the day in the sleek shower rooms.

After freshening up choose between nine well-appointed bedrooms consisting of king-size with en-suites, super-king-size, a king-size and a family room both with en-suites.

If you can tear yourself away from this beautiful dwelling venture into the heart of Inverary to stock up on all your self-catering essentials or enjoy a well-earned break from the kitchen at The George Hotel or Ocho.

You can also immerse yourself in the area’s history with a tour of the village’s jail which dates to the 19th century, The Inveraray Bell Tower and the breath-taking Inveraray Castle.

Other notable nearby attractions include Dun Na Cuaiche, Dunderave Castle and Ardkinglas Woodland Garden; keen ramblers will also be in their element thanks to the plethora of walking and hiking opportunities surrounding the property.

Loch Lomond and The Trossachs National Park lies a short, scenic drive away providing unbeatable views, stunning mountains, crystal clear waters and a myriad of adventure-filled, outdoor activities ranging from wild swimming to climbing; the brave among you may even try to summit The Cobbler, Clach Bheinn and The Brack.

Adventure awaits at Newton Hall!
