With my wife and and old friend, I made our second visit to the restaurant in April 2012. The whole experience is exemplary; super food, wonderful wine-matching on the tasting menu, and friendly, efficient service overseen by Jody and his team. I would go out of my way to eat here when in the Ullapool/Achiltibuie area. The bar food two... More

We stayed at the hotel for 7 days and can honestly say that the quality of the food, the service, the friendliness of all the staff together with the ambience of the dining room was superb for the whole of our stay. We have booked again for next year. We cannot recommend it more highly. More

We had eaten at THE BAR (not the Hotel) several years earlier and were looking forward to dining there again as the food had been quite delicious; however we were disappointed on this occasion and consequently didn't go there again during this week's visit to the area, More careful presentation of the food would have been welcome-there was just no...

We were not staying at the hotel but in self catering accommodation near by. This was our special evening out during our week's holiday and exceeded our already high expectations having stayed in the hotel some years ago. Fantastic food, making the best of local ingredient,and great service and wine. One of the touches which we enjoyed was that Jody... More

Jody Marshall and the team educate you into their world of food and wine with genuine belief. When you see the cheese board and the deserts the array of choice rivals the scenery which can only be described as breath-taking and spectacular. More

Not many places are welcoming when you arrive with a 15 month old child but the Summer Isles Hotel did. The food was lovely as was the beer and wine. Not too expensive and apart from them running out of their 'non-fish' item (which left the pregnant ladies with only one choice), the food was amazing. More

Dear Guest, Thank-you for taking the time to write a review on Trip Advisor website. I would like to apologise on behalf of the team for running out of our regular non seafood special. We are experiencing a very busy October – a time that has traditionally been quieter with less people dinning in the public bar. I trust the... More

On the second evening of our stay at the hotel, Chef Chris had prepared a seafood menu with monkfish tails in a filo parcel with lime and ginger to start, followed later by local hand dived scallops served with Vermouth on a mound of buttery champ with fresh basil. Between these courses, the stilton and courgette soufflé was a delicate... More

Staying at the summer isles hotel we had the pleasure of an evening meal in the restaurant as well as two superb breakfasts. For the evening meal, starter was a mushroom with sage infused oil, nice start. Followed by an exquisite crab cake on a cucumber bed, simple stunning! Next a very different but pleasant thyme and lemon granita. The... More
