Lagmore House

Lagmore House is a large property with a well appointed kitchen, lounge-dining room. However we did have some issues with the house. The second bedroom upstairs had damp on the walls and ceiling plus peeling wallpaper. The conservatory had lost a full length pane of glass which had been repaired by nailing on a piece of hardboard. There was an extremely large dark mark on the dining room ceiling which we we were told had been caused by bad weather last winter - the issue causing the damp had been resolved but the unsightly stains remained. The bed in the downstairs bedroom was extremely creaky. The house was certainly less than perfect and we would have appreciated a heads up that these issues existed before travelling . The management agent was good and the house was cleaned to a very high standard. However our feelings are that the house didn’t fully match the description and photographs - it is definitely in need of some repairs and redecoration - particularly at the price charged. That said Islay is a lovely destination and we did have an enjoyable holiday.
Response from VrboOwner on Sep 12, 2021
Thank you for your review. We were happy to hear you felt the house was cleaned to a very high standard and that you enjoyed your holiday. The two issues you noted are being addressed next month after our busy season ends as we've been fully booked since the reopening of the tourism industry. The touch-up painting to the two spots and the repair to the one conservatory window will take place then. Lagmore House, as you noted, is a very large, ocean-front home.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello, my name is Christine. My husband and I purchased the Lagmore House in the Spring of 2018 after falling in love with Islay. I am a photographer currently living in Scotland and our family loves spending our holiday time here. Our two young children absolutely love coming to Lagmore House to explore all of the beauty Islay has to offer. We've strived to create a warm, welcoming, holiday let where you can make lasting holiday memories.

Why they chose this property

While very spacious, the Lagmore House has a very cosy and friendly feel. It's size, amazing location, proximity to the water, and unspoilt views make it a unique Islay holiday let.

What makes this property unique

Location, location, location and of course spaciousness of the house :)
