• "Lovely location."

  Stunning views. Cosy when cold and stormy. Easy to get organised for days out with 2 teenagers and cook/recover from mountain days in the evening. Miss my morning brew in the little lochside bay already! Had a super week, which was most needed by all.

  Thank you for your glowing review Peter. And thank you for sharing your adventures with me. You sure did make the most of the snowy conditions with some skiing and winter walking. So happy you enjoyed Property Owner

• "Amazing! The cottage is lovely and so well stocked, even sharp new knives!"

  I loved it, a real home from home, will definitely be booking again. Location for Glencoe, Cairngorms, Oban, FW was ideal, would highly recommend the cafe at the highland soap company and the scones at NT glencoe centre were the best! I can’t fault anything at the cottage

• "This is a really lovely house in a beautiful location - clearly a much loved property."

  The views across Loch Linnhe are stunning and all the rooms were very homely and comfortable, a real home from home and very well equipped. Expect a little bit of noise from the road but it didn’t bother us in the slightest - a really good location between Fort William and Oban, with an excellent Co-op at Ballachulish a few minutes’ drive away. The owner Cherry was very friendly and helpful with any queries.

  Thank you so much Robert for the glowing review. Always glad to help guests have a wonderful holiday. Cherry Property Owner

• "This is a wonderful, comfortable, warm cottage, with beautiful views of Loch Linnhe."

  We wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to others. One small issue is that it is close to a busy road, with fast moving traffic. This doesn't spoil the peace too much, but there isn't a front gate, which may be a problem for people with young children. It was okay for us as we kept our dog on a lead, but just something to be aware of.

  So glad you loved the cottage and fabulous views Nicky, thank you so much for your recommendation. You are quite right- guests with very young children should be supervised outside as the main road is not far away and as per listing the garden is not enclosed. Kind regards Cherry Property Owner

• "We had a wonderful week at this beautiful cottage on the banks of the Loch."

  The cottage was well equipped and cosy and lived up to its name as we saw otters and seals in the loch. We ate at and visited the Hollytree hotel which was a ten minute walk away along the cycle path and we spent a pleasant few evenings looking for sea glass on the little beach across from the cottage. There is a small tidal rock outcrop a few mins to the right of the cottage along the path where seals and otters can also be seen. Despite the road in front this was a peaceful cottage with fabulous views over the ever changing view as the weather and tide rolled in. This was a great base for exploring the local area and we visited Fort William for the Jacobite train, Oban for a Mull & Iona tour and we also visited Highland fold for ice cream and highland cows which is well worth a visit. Only very minor comment on cottage would be the recycling signage was a bit confusing with lots of it and could do with simplifying. We figured it out in the end and had a fab time and wouldn’t hesitate to come back. Thank you!

  Thank you Pamela for a fantastic review. Great that the otters and seals made an appearance! Happy you had a wonderful time in the cottage. Cherry Property Owner

  We saw Sea Otters from the beach just opposite the cottage and a young deer in the back garden on two occasions. We enjoyed an evening meal at the Holly Tree which is a short distance away.

• "Lovely well equipped cottage in a beautiful location over looking Loch Linnhe."

  I would particularly like to say how spotlessly clean the property is and how comfortable the the king sized beds are. Our little dogs enjoyed the lovely walks from the doorstep but do bear in mind that the property is close to a main road and the gardens are not completely sealed so supervision of pets is required. The woodburner was great for the cooler evenings but even without, the cottage was warm and cosy. We shall look forward to returning

  My mistake? Very dirty but was given £50 as a good will jesture.

  I am disappointed to hear that you didn't enjoy your stay at Sea Otter Cottage. However, I wanted to share with you that we take pride in providing a beautiful cottage with excellent reviews from our previous guests. We believe that your review may not accurately reflect the beauty of the cottage and all that it has to offer. I just wanted to clarify that the beds in the cottage are king-size, not super king, and this is clearly indicated in the Sykes advert and my welcoming messages to you. Our cleaner is usually very fastidious and has a perfect score for cleanliness, and we do our best to make sure that the cottage is beautifully appointed, well-equipped, and in a stunning location. We work hard to ensure that our guests have every comfort and a delightful experience, including a lovely welcome hamper. In order to maintain the cleanliness of the cottage, we kindly ask that dogs are not allowed on the furniture or bedding, especially if they have dirty paws. I provided throws that can be used to cover the sofas if necessary, although you did not use them in this instance. Property Owner

• "Great week at Sea Otter cottage, with everything we needed for our stay there."

  Wouldn’t change a thing in the spacious immaculate cottage! Didn’t see the otters but spent a lot of evenings down on the shoreline. Our Sea Labrador growled angrily a few times, at the waters edge, at what turned out to be seals coming to see what we were doing in their loch. Waking to snow on the peaks across the bay was a real treat and the evening orange and pink skies making the bracken look on fire I would never tire of. Great location with everything you need close by making it an ideal base to our days out. Would highly recommend.

  The cottage was really welcoming and included everything you could possibly need - it really felt like you were coming back home after a busy day exploring. The cottage is on the main road (A838) but set well back and outside of peak times there is very little traffic. The old railway line between Oban and Ballachulish runs parallel to the road and gives the opportunity for walks with spectacular views right from the front door. In all, a wonderful relaxing holiday away from it all. We have already decided we will be back.

• "Sea Otter Cottage has magnificient views."

  In the cupboard next to the kitchen the airer was full of towels so it meant we had to take the towels off and fold them so that we could use the airer. We left the folded towels on top of the washing machine. There really wasn't anwyhere that you could air clothing as there was no tumble dryer. In view of the weather in Scotland an airer would be extremely handy. In total we were away from home for a month so we needed to wash, dry clothing and air. The property was reasdonably well appointed comfortable beds ok linen, towels had seen better days. The reception on the television was not good unless you used Raku. We contacted the owner who was helpful via text. Sea View is not a place to stay if you want to use anything other than RAku.

  Hi Ken In the kitchen there is a tumble dryer which I bought new last year and there is also an airing pulley. The tumble dryer is next to the oven. Unfortunately TV reception in the Highlands is often not good if you want a remote location. Roku, which accesses many channels via the Internet, is the only option. It is not great for live TV but has many options for Internet TV. Glad you enjoyed the views and other facilities at the cottage. Property Owner

  Only one restaurant/pub in walking distance. This has a great terrace and good food. Good pubs in Ballachulish/ Glencoe a couple of miles up the road. Cottage clean and tidy with well equipped kitchen. Note that at night it is pitch black outside so a torch is a must. Only negatives are lack of free view on tv and iplayer can be slow. Gardens not dog secure since front garden has no gate. Rear garden needs to be opened up further and fenced. Notwithstanding this there is a long and safe path along loch that takes you to holy tree hotel

  The location is stunning and we had some spectacular sunsets over the Bay in front of the house. We were also lucky enough to see the Aurora one night.

The views from the bedroom windows were breathtaking. We would definitely stay here again and were very happy with the property and the location, the only criticism I could make is that I found the beds to be rather hard and not very comfortable.

  Hi Katie. Glad you enjoyed. It is a very special location. Apologies if you found the beds a bit hard. They are hotel quality medium hardness.

  So well equipped for self catering and holidaying in, that it was a joy to cook there and we only ate out once. The place had been immaculately cleaned by the housekeeper. Cherry (owner) was in contact beforehand with some good directions, and we found wine, shortbread and chocolates waiting for us. The beds are very comfortable, but a chair in the bedrooms would be nice, even if only to sit and gaze at the sunsets (and sea otters if they deem to make an appearance) and possibly a mirror in each room?

Clean and cosy, logs stocked by the fire and a gorgeous welcome basket with shortbread, wine and jams. The location of the cottage is lovely although the road out front is noisy. 15 minutes to Glencoe with brilliant access to the Highlands on the A82. Everything felt clean and new in the cottage. We really enjoyed doing a jigsaw and reading the Rough guide to Scotland book. Shower was clean but towels were still very fluffy (obviously new) so left fluff on your after bathing (a tiny thing). The beds were large and comfortable and we found the storage in the kitchen / bedrooms very handy. We found the walking / cycle path in front of the cottage handy for walking our dogs.
