Lovely cottage
We booked this cottage as it was near to the centre of town which was what we were looking for. The situation on the side of Campbeltown Loch was a bonus - the view was stunning. We were very lucky that the weather was fantastic for our stay - everyday was sunny and bright. The property was lovely - it had 3 bedrooms, all a good size and 2 bathrooms. The living room and dining room were two very nice connected rooms. The kitchen we really only used for breakfast but it was well equipped. I would book the property again if we were returning to Campbeltown. The information from the host (Gavin) was excellent and we also had a local contact which was helpful.

A little piece of heaven
Despite the weather we had the most perfect stay in this cottage, the location is stunning and we were lucky enough for one sunrise over Campbeltown Loch that could be viewed from the living room, dining room, kitchen and one of the bedrooms. Highly recommend for people who love being right beside the water in a peaceful idyllic setting !

Lovely little cottage in a beautiful location
We had a great week in Campbeltown. The cottage was an ideal distance to town and great for exploring the area. There was plenty of room in the house and garden for the children to run around. The cottage is well equipped and comfy with a great collection of books.

A lovely,clean, well equipped property in a great location. Great communication before our stay which made the check in process very easy. The parking area was suitable for one car but would have been a struggle if guests had additional vehicles. We hope to return for a future visit.

Wonderful Week in Campbeltown
This home was perfect for our week's stay in Campbeltown. The setting is idyllic--I could not stop taking pictures out of every window, looking out past the sailboats toward Davaar Island--and the house was very comfortable. Beds were great for our three children (ranging in age from 14 to 9), and we loved the walk from the cottage into town. We hope to repeat this lovely stay in the future.

Beautiful Views, Large & Convenient to Town
We really enjoyed this property and were greeted with a bottle of wine, milk & cookies. It's large and well equipped and beautiful views. Great bedding! A few little quirks with the cooker that were well explained & easy to get used to. Excellent stay and highly recommend!

This is a lovely place to stay, would have stayed longer if we could and we are hoping to stay again. Everything we needed was there and despite a couple of issues around worn indicators on the cooker, we enjoyed excellent meals with friends. Local manager was more than helpful; our warmest thanks.
