Summary: Gorgeous setting with fields all round with a view of the loch in the distance. Four super friendly horses in the fields that my kids loved seeing every day. The heaters were electric storage heater style, but there was amble firewood which kept the log burner going as it was quite chilly when we were there but made it very lovely. Would suggest putting hard flooring in the lounge as easier when kids and dogs are walking in and out of the garden No secure back garden but wasn’t too much of an issue as it’s very private on acres of land. It is gorgeous down at the loch, was such a highlight and it was so peaceful. It’s a really good nature e patience. Very remote, we visited cambeltown, Tarbert and went to the beach and caught a ferry to Arran but be warned about how temperamental they are with cancelling due to the weather. Fantastic cottage, cosy, homely, well equipment kitchen and was very handy with washer as well got quite muddy and wet a couple of days. Able to switch off from our stressful jobs so was fabulous.
