Had a brilliant holiday. Cottage is in an excellent location for exploring the area. Beds very comfortable, views spectacular. Owner has even gone to the trouble of putting a telescope up in the bedroom. Only downside is that the garden is not secure, and the cottage is on a busy road. If you have a dog or young children that could be an issue. Would book again in the future

Strathlene Lodge was a beautiful little cottage with amazing views sat right on the beach. It was very well resourced and was perfect as a base for exploring all the local towns and villages. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and only wish it had been for longer as the weather was glorious. Our only suggestion would be to make the garden secure for those visiting with dogs as the road outside is extremely busy . Would highly recommend this property and would love to return one day .
