The Barn - Luxurious Self Catering In Ardfern
Highly recommend staying here. The sunroom was unique and the peaceful surroundings were just what we needed for a break from the city.

Azalea Cottage by the Bay
A lovely cottage with beautiful views across the loch. The cottage had a lovely garden and decking, the kitchen was well catered and the beds were comfy. The folder provided had very clear and concise instructions and we felt able to use the cottage easily, including the central heating system (which isn’t always the case in different properties). Hosts were quick to respond to messages. Would definitely recommend and would look at their portfolio of properties in the future.

Cragowlet House East. (1200 sq. ft)
Lovely place, well equipped Kitchen. Lovely and peaceful. Very comforrable and all the things you may need. Good phone reception, wifi connection and TV. Toy cupboard for our girls. Lovely bathrooms and bedrooms and beautiful views over the loch from lounge window. Lovely garden. Very helpful and welcoming host.

Shore House, Kilcreggan
We had a wonderful New Year here. The stunning and ever changing views across the Clyde from the large living room windows are excellent. A great place to relax, draw and spot wildlife. The place is spacious and plenty of room for 2 couples. This is our 2nd stay and we loved it.

‘Tigh na ba’, Loch Etive, Argyll
If you are looking for off-the-beaten-track luxury with incredible wildlife, views of beautiful Loch Etive and the surrounding mountains which are second to none - then this is the place for you! Our family of 7 had a wonderful stay here and we were sad to leave. We highly recommend this Air BnB and we would love to visit again. Note: we were thankful to find teabags and coffee - but bring your own milk. ;)

Cheerful 5 bedroom home on Loch Lomond
Great house in a beautiful location. The size of the rooms was perfect for our group. The hot tub was ready for us arriving and the fridge was generously stocked with complimentary drinks! The hosts were very prompt and helpful with their responses to our messages. Thank you for a great weekend!

Glencoe Hollybank, Glen Etive
An absolute gem of a place to stay . Every detail thought of, clean and the views were spectacular in a prime and stunning location . We have had an amazing and magical 4 days staying here and thoroughly enjoyed it . Highly recommend this place and has made our first visit to Scotland incredible, we will definitely be coming back sometime soon.

Beolary
Beolary is a brilliant house, and Hazel is a superb host. Our family had a wedding in Oban and the house was invaluable helping our family enjoy the wedding, and Oban, for the weekend. Recommend entirely without reservation - Thank you, Hazel (and Susan).
Lake-access apartment rentals

Waterfront Apartment, Oban
As described, lovely, lovely location, Oban is a great place to visit and just loved being by the sea watching boats going past, we are biased as the weather was sunny and warm which in September in Scotland is an anomaly lol. The apartment is as described, loved it.

Stunning 2 bed Penthouse Apartment at Loch Lomond
The apartment was exactly as described and in the pictures - fantastic value and very smart in comparison to other accommodation in the area. Gordon is incredibly professional and we’re really glad we chose to stay here. Some amazing hiking around the Loch too.

Lomond View
Lovely lovely apartment right by the lake. Mesmerizing views, amazing shower, well equiped kitchen and we even had a bottle of prosecco waiting for us. We felt at home abd had a wonderful time !

Comfy and central. Close to the harbour
This a lovely flat and even had surprisingly good views, which I was not expecting but was delighted nonetheless. Great decor and vibe, would happily stay again and recommend to anyone.

Small but lovely flat with beautiful Loch view
I booked Suz’s birthday place after an awful experience in Largs the night before. Her responses were so quick I felt reassured straight away. The instructions were clear and the flat was perfect. If you’re from London it doesn’t seem small! The decor is bright well designed. The loch was wonderful for running beside during my sunny stay and I loved the 21 Grains bakery. It’s very close to Glasgow airport and is well connected by trains and buses. I was actually spectating at Inverclyde in Largs and it was perfect for that too.

Stay by the shores of Loch Etive
This place has got to be one of the best we have stayed at for location as the views from the accommodation were just stunning and right on Loch Etive which was also fantastic for paddle boarding being on the door step. Beautiful wildlife all around to watch through the huge living room windows that look out at Ben Cruachan and Loch Etive

Spacious apartment, beautiful village by Loch Awe
This is a great place, right in the heart of Dalavich, at a very reasonable price. The accommodation is clean and has everything you need for a comfortable stay. The hosts are great, friendly and informative. Dalavich is beautiful and a great place to visit. We had a fantastic time. I would stock up with provisions before you come and bring them with you though. I would highly recommend this accommodation and the location.

The Monarch Lomond Castle Loch Lomond L/N AR00260F
Beautiful setting here with clear instructions for check in. An easy walk to The Duck Bay hotel with restaurants was a very nice addition here. Anne was very helpful and quick to answer any questions that we may have had. Would recommend a stay here.

Tobar nan Iasgair, Isle of Lismore, Oban, Scotland
Lovely comfortable stay. I was visiting alone for work so didn’t make the best use of the space and surroundings. Would love to return with family/ friends.

Auchgoyle Bay Cottage
Great place to stay and very nice host.

The Gardener’s Cottage with wood fired Hot Tub
We enjoy this cottage so much that this is the 3rd time we have been. The perfect place to relax.

!!HIDDEN GEM!! Cozy Cottage near Lochgilphead
5 stars across the board! This place is magical if you’re looking for a get away from the hustle and bustle of life and instead listen to the birds and enjoy time in nature. The chickens and hens were welcome company, they’re so sweet and greet you when you pull up. I stayed here April 2025 and happened to luck out with the weather, which was fabulous. Lochgilphead is close by, as is the gorgeous Ardfern which you can easily get to in less than 30 minutes. Also, you can do a day trip to the isle of Arran based from here, which is an added bonus. Peter and Anna were very accommodating and you can tell that they love their place. It was very clean and comfortable, I can’t wait to return. Natasha

Picturesque Old Smiddy Cottage
Beautiful location and lovely views from the property

Pier Cottage , Glenstriven Estate , Lochstriven
This was the most incredibly beautiful property in a stunning location. Pier Cottage is so private and peaceful with views over Loch Striven where you can sit and relax whilst watching the array of wildlife around you or take the kayak out on the loch. The cottage was extremely comfortable and well appointment with everything you would need for you stay. If you are looking for somewhere to unplug from the world and completely relax - this is the ideal place.

Peaceful lochside Highland retreat
This stay was just what we needed! Peaceful, beautiful views and a cosy cottage with a log burner that had pretty much everything we needed. Overall our stay was fantastic. Loved being lochside (the bench outside is perfect), exploring the area and having lots of lovely animals to view either in the loch or right next to the door. We were lucky enough to see any species of birds, seals, otters and even red squirrels!

Ross of Mull Bunkrooms, Whole Cottage
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The place was super cosy and the beds very comfortable. Kitchen has lots of amenities! Location was top tier, only a 15 minute walk to the ferry port to Isle of Iona. Rachel and Matt were super friendly and helpful hosts and very responsive. They kindly came to pick us up when our car broke down on day 1! Highly recommend staying here.
