Fantastic cottage located right on the shore looking west over the ocean with views towards Islay, Jura, Gigha and Ireland. Fully equipped with everything you would need and very comfortable. The owner went out of her way to make sure we enjoyed our stay. Beautiful sunsets.
Marilyn Leech
A perfect cottage from which to enjoy a very interesting part of the Kintyre coastline. Our host was very welcoming and knowledgeable. Storage heaters kept us very cozy, the conservatory has brilliant views out to sea and the garden was a very safe place for our dog to run about off the leash.The beach in front of the cottage is so full of shells, seaweeds and rock pools and is also close to Westport beach which goes for miles. Plenty of walks within a short drive. The towns of Campbeltown and Tarbert are well worth exploring, so is Gigha (a short ferry trip away).Great location for wildlife with seals on the rocks close to the cottage and masses of seabirds everywhere.We will definitely return.
Margaret Forth
A well equipped cottage in a lovely location right on the seafront with amazing view of sea, and seals on the nearby rocks.
