We spent two nights on Tiree earlier this month, and had been recommended to stay at Rockvale Guesthouse, adjacent to Balephetrish Bay on the north side of the island. What a delightful welcome we received from Alison on our arrival, about ten to fifteen minutes drive from the ferry, when we were shown round the house to the conservatory and... More

I stayed at Rockvale Guest House as part of a wedding party and I count my luck stars that I could have stayed in such a stunning place for my stay on Tiree. From the delicious breakfasts to the comfy and inviting rooms, everything at Rockvale was first class and the epitome of what a bed and breakfast should deliver.... More

We were looked after very well , even before arrival we had been given very helpful information from Alison . The breakfasts were amazing and very substantial ... Nothing was ever too much trouble. The only reason we have given it a 4 is a very selfish one.... A dinner menu would have been fantastic as there isn't many alternatives... More

I feel bad being the first person not to give this place 5 out of 5 but I have to be honest about my own personal stay. Don't get me wrong, I would go back in a flash but there were a couple of things that had Rockvale fall just short of a 5 out of 5. The internet signal... More

My sister treated me to 2 nights here for my 50th birthday and it really was a treat. The guest house is in an idyllic location with at least one great walk (to the Ringing Stone) nearby and plenty of opportunities to see a variety of sealife and birds. The guesthouse was very comfortable with everything one needs and spotlessly... More

This is a fantastic guest house, tastefully decorated, very clean and comfortable with all the facilities you could require. Alison is a good host, very welcoming and couldn't be more helpful. The location is also excellent and only a short walk away from a white sandy beach. It's the first time we've been to Tiree and although out of season... More

Hi recently stayed at Rockvale guest house for 3 nights and it was absolutely worth the money. Service was adequate and friendly, the room was very good and always in order, the location very beautiful and the breakfast absolutely great.

Such a lovely and welcoming place! The guest house is situated beautifully and only a few minutes’ walk away from the beach. Alison is a brilliant host and created a guest house with so much charm and atmosphere, that we didn’t want to leave at the end of our stay. Breakfast is delicious and you can pick from a wide...

This is an outstanding place to stay - a warm welcome, immaculately clean, cosy and comfortable and the breakfast will keep you fuelled up for the whole day! It's great to meet people who really want to be guest house owners and welcome you like friends Alison is right up there with the very best. Beautiful.

Rockvale is simply one of the best guest houses we have stayed in. We were there from 20th to 22nd September 2012. We received a warm welcome from our host Allison and shown our room which was exceptionally comfortable. The standard of furniture and fittings was very high as was the bedding which helped to make our bed very comfortable.... More
