"We had a great stay in this very comfortable cottage, which is in a peaceful location with fantastic views."
Almost everything we needed was provided, minus a couple of minor things. We did have some issues with the shower, which seemed to go from either very hot to a bit cold.
-
"It had everything you needed but it was very tired looking and not much attention to detail."
The pillowcases, for example, were not ironed and coming apart at the seams. Also, there was no welcome pack. Not even milk in the fridge to make a drink. We were miles away from any shops and were waiting for an online shopping delivery.

"Lovely views from the cottage ."
The cottage was well equipped with everything you could possibly need. The only thing I could not find was a potato peeler but managed with the fabulous array of knives. Bed and sofa were very comfortable. Great area for exploring islands from. We visited easdale, sail island , lismore and kerrerra. We could have happily stayed longer.

"Fantastic location and overall nice accommodation."
Well equipped kitchen and garden overlooking loch. Decor a little tired and some furnishings a little shabby. Large puddle forms at gate when it rains so decent footwear needed. Log burner not easy to use but other heating was sufficient. I did enjoy my holiday so much so I have booked again for next year. Would recommend if you are looking for tranquility and relaxation.

"The cottage was cosy, comfortable and well equipped."
The wood burner was lovely to use when the evening cooled down. The views from the cottage are stunning and we saw eagles, an otter, many deer and lots of seabirds. I highly recommend this cottage if you are looking for remote peace and quiet.

"Great area for walking & nature enthusiasts"

"Excellent property and location ."
Cottage is beautifully presented and well equipped. Our only issue is, and it was the same last time we stayed here, was the lack of hot water . Instructions given did not allow us to get hot water any day of stay . In order to make use of the beautiful deep bath we had to boil over 10 kettles/ pots of water to get a very shallow hot bath. Boost function did not provide the required hot water . Thankfully the electric shower allowed us to bathe properly. Anyone with young children might struggle with lack of hot water . Apart from this issue a wonderful place to stay .

About the location
BENDERLOCH
Oban 7 miles.
The village of Benderloch lies on the north side of Loch Etive in the West Highlands of Scotland, and forms part of the Lynn of Lorn National Scenic Area. Next to the coast and surrounded by spectacular scenery and views, Benderloch is served by a general store and two restaurants, a tea room and also boasts a Nature Reserve and forest walks. A short drive north is Castle Stalker, dramatically rising out of the water and well worth a visit, while Ardchattan Priory Garden, dating back to the 13th century, has neutral soil and a temperate climate, which allow many fascinating species to grow. With the busy town of Oban only 7 miles to the south and the Inner Hebrides only a ferry ride away, there is much to see and do in this beautiful part of Scotland.
