  Holly Cottage is nicely situated to get out and about for hiking, more gentle walking and sight-seeing.

  Located just off the main road and near the bridge over Loch Leven, I was a bit concerned about traffic noise...... however very little could be heard. Overall the cottage was probably in its correct comfort / amenities category, though the covid pandemic meant a number of seful things were removed by the owners, but there was an online link provided, offering info etc. Clean and tidy, large comfortable sofa, TV a bit too small. There were only the two of us and though its 3 double bedroomed property, I think more than four would feel crowded. For the price we paid it was certainly good enough and we weren't disappointed. The outdoor table with the view is in the front garden and as such you do hear all the traffic going over the bridge.

  We had a few issues with this cottage which we felt was not up to the standard of previous properties rented via Sykes.

  The stainless steel top of the toaster was completely black with burnt on residue and looked as though it should have been changed. On the one occasion we decided to use the dishwasher we could not get it working and suspect there is a fault with the controls. There was black mould on the the wall behind the cistern in the bathroom which was not a good look. The couple using the ensuite room felt that the size of the sink and the position of the tap made it very difficult to wash in. These comments have been passed to the owner on the feedback form in the cottage. Other than the points above, the facilities and equipment within the cottage were good and the location idea for exploring that region of Scotland.

  We had a lovely stay at the Holly cottage and Heather is a great host!

  The communication with her was second to none. The location is perfect for the Glencoe ski resort and the views from the living room floor-to-ceiling windows are absolutely captivating. The property was clean and comfortable, the kitchen was well stocked with pots/pans/utensils and I especially appreciated the large fridge as we cooked a lot ourselves rather than eating out. The cottage is tastefully decorated (wood-burning stove was definitely a highlight) and the bedding is great quality. We all slept really well! The only let down was the fact that the bathrooms looked a little tired and in need of updating. Nonetheless, we had a really great holiday! Thank you :)

  The house was very clean when we arrived.

  There was a lovely welcome pack in the kitchen. We had everything we needed for our week's stay. The 2 showers are electric so not what we are used to but adequate for a holiday. The stove was very welcome for a rainy November. There were plenty of logs and we were happy to buy our own kindling and fire lighters. The owner contacted me during week as they had received delivery of kindling if needed.There is a large Co-op store 5 minutes away in Ballachulish which should have pretty much anything you need for your holiday. The area is outstanding and perfect for walking and enjoying the outdoors. I would recommend the property to anyone.
