Very comfortable and well equipped accommodation. Location, two miles down a farm track may not be for everyone but the stunning views from the property are amazing.Ideal for a quiet holiday, 50 metres from the coastal Kintyre Way and not too far from restaurants and shops in Campbeltown.

Absolutely blown away with this beautiful bungalow. Everything possible we needed for our week here. The views were stunning and made waking up in the morning a absolute pleasure. The sheep and lambs were lovely to watch .Was extremely sad to leave yesterday. Only downside was the road up to bungalow. Personally I found it a bit daunting but thats just me
