There seems to be nowhere to walk here except along the busy road — hopeless. And the traffic is noisy. This must be more for Mr Toad than Ratty (if you have not read Wind in the Willows, you are not a genuine boatie). But there is the pub to repair to. In 2008 the old 18th century Creagan Inn was completely taken to bits and rebuilt in a rather unattractive style, with a huge deck jutting out into the loch (ph 01631 730250). Architectural vandalism I'm afraid. The restaurant and bar were over-large and soulless. Not surprisingly it closed down in 2010. However, it was then sold and reopened under much more promising new ownership in 2011, to Allan and Liz Crichton. Since then it has gone through more than one change of ownership. I have not been there recently enough to know how things now stand. It only seems to be open from Wednesday through Sunday, so check before you go. And in 2026 it was for sale — again. Covid has hit these sort of places very hard, and now the increase in national insurance has hit even harder.
