Christmas New Year Holiday

Comfortable little cottage with lovely views. Little bit of road noise, but soon got used to it. Heating struggled a bit with very cold weather. Short walk to the shops etc. Many different walks available in the area without having to use the car. Over all we enjoyed our festive holiday.

A very comfortable cottage in an excellent location. The view across the water from the front windows is lovely and the town with restaurants, pubs and shops is a few minutes walk away. The host was helpful and made contact easy. We were very pleased that we chose this cottage.

Convenient short stay

A convenient location for Inveraray with lovely views across Loch Fyne. Heavy traffic on the main road can be a nuisance but this didn't stop us enjoying this historic property complete with its original bread oven

Beautiful, cosy cottage with everything you need in great location

Absolutely everything you could need (4 hairdryers!) in a beautiful old cottage with views across the lock to distant hills. 300 yards to Coop supermarket, plenty of car parking, short walk to Inverary town centre. Comfortable beds and a very friendly, helpful host.I had a great time touring the Argyll area and staying in admiring the views. Nice garden and sheltered outdoor breakfast/coffee area. Perfect for me!

Perfect Getaway

Absolutely charming cottage with an amazing view of the loch. Everything you want to visit is a short walk away. For US visitors, it’s like something out of a storybook or BBC drama. Rooms are small but cozy, kitchen and laundry were very useful. The back garden is beautiful, great for morning tea. Very much worth the money.

Newton Cottage 2024 September

We have stayed at this cottage on several occasions. We find it ideal as we come to visit family in the surrounding area . Found the TV to be somewhat out dated ! and difficult to read text on screen when program checking.

Fyne Romance

The perfect cottage for us in an outstanding position, lovely and comfortable with beautiful views. It felt very much like a home from home with fab towels and comfy beds, tastefully decorated with attention to detail and excellent amenities. The only thing I’d say and I knew before we went there from reading the reviews, the road noise is pretty loud and I’d advise earplugs.

First holiday in Scotland

Don't be fooled by the exterior, this is a lovely, well equipped cottage for two to share. Waking up to the view of the morning sunrise across the Loch was a real joy. The only drawbacks are the close location to the main road means there is a lot of traffic noise, and close proximity parking is difficult, although there is ample space at the rear of the back garden. Other than that, the cottage itself is great, and the owners were most helpful when called upon.

Very cozy with some signs of wear

The house is really cozy and has a great Layout . It is also equipped with everything you need for a holiday. It has already been booked many times, which is now noticeable in the furniture. Unfortunately, it was not very clean. In the bathroom, there were still beard stubble from the previous tenant's shaving in and around the sink. And in the kitchen, the coffee machine and kettle had also not been cleaned. But all the cleaning supplies were available, so we were able to take care of it ourselves. The garden furniture in the shed really needs to be cleaned. We didn't use it, because it looked like it had been sitting in the shed for years and was somewhat damaged. Nevertheless, the house is lovingly furnished and comes with lots of helpful information. The location is the biggest plus.

Great base for exploring Argyll

Cosy, comfy little cottage on edge of Inverary, with great views across Loch Fyne. It was clean, well-equipped and had nice welcoming touches of shortbread, wine and some coffee pods too. Would have to recommend ear plugs if sleeping in the front bedroom as the main road passes infront of the cottage, but the lovely views in the morning more than make up for it! Our only criticism would be that the parking area at the back is not very well described on the arrival instructions (and it differs from the information in the folder in the house), so we may have unwittingly parked in a neighbour's spot to start with. Perhaps an up-to-date drawing of the parking area would help guests in the future, or some signage on site. Parking in the area by the bus stop opposite the house was the easier option, we decided in the end. However, we did enjoy our week there very much, and Inveraray itself is a great wee town with a good range of shops, bars and cafes just a short (and very scenic) stroll away.

October in Inveraray

Lovely small cottage in a good location. Really handy for the local amenities. All restaurants, shops within walking distance of the cottage. Property, was clean & tidy. The only issue is with the windows & front door of the property. Neither are sealed properly or sound proof. So, you can hear all traffic going up & down the road. Particularly if sleeping in the front bedroom at night. The property needs double glazing.

Lovely cottage and great location, nice bottle of wine on arrival. Twice a year we travel to the west islands on fishing trips and we would certainly stay in Newton cottage south again.

A well appointed cottage with stunning views of Loch Fyne. It is within easy walking distance of the town where there are a variety of shops and restaurants. It is advisable to book restaurants in advance. I look forward to returning.

Some bad, some good.

There was very little toilet paper supplied and there were some dirty dishes in the cupboard. The kitchen was supplied with the bare minimum. The refrigerator needed to be wiped out. The owner was responsive to a question. Needs a bit of an update. Beds were comfortable. Bathroom was adequate.

An enjoyable short break

Inverary was a lovely little town for a short break and Newton Cottage South had everything we needed. The kitchen was fully equipped (we ate out so only used it for breakfast and snacks), the bed was comfortable and the bathroom, although small, was new and clean. It was an easy 10 minute walk into the town and the co-op was even closer. The view was lovely and there was a great back garden to sit in when it was sunny. Parking was also available at the back of the cottage. The road traffic was quite loud but we got used to it and it wouldn't put us off staying again.

Sorry left cottage early due to some factors noises of scratching etc in attic very loud and scary.

Had to leave cottage early for various reasons loud noises in the attic quite scary and not nice. Also the traffic noise was awful constant you couldn’t sit out front al all impossible to enjoy the view. Also the two armchairs in room were absolutely filthy definitely would not sit on them and couch was very uncomfortable. Both front door and back door entrances were very dirty never been swept in months leaves and dirt being carried into house. Bedroom was fine nice views and apart from loud noises in attic would have been ok. Bathroom also was ok although large people might struggle with tight shower cubicle but ok for us. Kitchen was also ok although no drawers for cutlery and no bowls or microwaveable equipment and sink difficult to keep the back of it dry. We were sad about these issues really but it needs upgrading of downstairs furniture urgently and outside back area need some T.L.C. Sweeping and some plant pots and some chair cushions etc not much but just nice touches only a suggestion.
