Relaxing escape in perfect location

10.0

We don't want to go home. That says it all. The location is perfect, on a no through road allowing kids and dogs the freedom to run to the beach. The house is cosy and welcoming, with plenty of space to spread out. One large double room, and one quad room on the secondbfloor, both with fabulous sea views. First floor is the other double bedroom, bathroom, lounge and seating area. Ground floor is kitchen, toilet, and dining room. Facilities in kitchen suited us fine, large fridge, plenty of crockery and pans. We took our own coffee machine which was a great move. Basic but quite adequate, no laundry facilities but with a laundrette close by its understandable. The tv, wifi were a great upgrade after reading some previous reviews. The window seats .I don't think we've ever sat in one spot for such a length of time. It was pure relaxation. The garden is secure and sheltered. We did have to minesweep old dog deposits in the long grass, there was a good amount that had been previously missed by guests. Bring you own binoculars We're already planning to return next year, our new favourite holiday house when we're not caravanning. Thankyou

− One thing. Double bed on 1st floor is very uncomfortable being 2 single mattresses on one base. It slides and separates, moves around quite freely.

Cambeltown, you can do much better!

Location

− Kitchen and facilities. Cooker hob and oven were poorly cleaned, all kitchen utensils were old, pots and pans were worn out. Kettle and microwave very cheap. Bedrooms were very basic. No WiFi. Smallest TV we have ever encountered. Shower mixer tap was either scalding hot or freezing cold. Only 4 dining chairs. Several light bulbs were out, which made for very poor light in a dark kitchen. We have stayed in hostels that provide much much better facilities and much cleaner

Fab place and location

What can I say...the location was incredible.... waking up to the sea views, mountain views and the tranquility of being on a no through traffic lane was out of this world. The beach to the immediate front of the property, while a bit shale-y, was perfect for a paddle, and we barely saw another person on it. The house was extremely large, with airy and spacious rooms throughout, the split lounge area is a great idea, having a quiet section to look out to sea and the sofa area for family time. The majority of the beds were extremely comfortable, cosy and we all had great sleeps. As a location it's ideal, close to immaculate sandy beaches, crystal clear sea, hill walks and even the odd highland cow! The town centre is a short walk and there are two supermarkets within a 10 min walk from the house

− I have privately messaged the housekeeper with the minor issues we had ... Basically a repeat of what's already been said in previous reviews however I understand the property is due to be renovated and a new TV is being installed as soon as an aerial can be put up so I wouldn't let the defects put you off as it truly is a great house and what I did comment on in no way affected our stay.
