Loch view cosy cottage

Lovely well equipped and well furnished house with 3 nice bedrooms and a comfy sitting room and good kitchen. The listing shows very well what you can expect. Lovely views over Loch Long. Very comfortable cottage and we found no fault at all-- though of course we can't review the weather !:) We enjoyed our stay. Photos taken on a gorgeous day with Arrochar at its best.

We loved Kay and Jim's beauful house and particularly the lovely outside seating area looking out across Loch Long and the Arrochar Alps. We were fortuate to have uncharacteristically spectacular weather for Argyll and got out and about to many beautiful gardens, woodlands, lochs and towns. The house was spotlessly clean and very comfortable, with everything we needed. Many thanks

The cottage is perfect and more than lived up to our expectations. Stunning views, we were lucky to have great weather which enhanced the scenery. Local Village Inn and Ben's Bothy great if you want to eat and drink local. Lots to do in the surrounding area. The walk to the cobbler well worth a go. One of the best holidays we have had.
