We had a wonderful stay at Catriona’s beautiful property in Dalmally. The location was absolutely perfect, right beside Loch Awe, with such a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. The view of the loch from the living room was simply stunning, and it was lovely to wake up and enjoy such a beautiful and quiet setting.The property was very clean, comfortable and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Catriona was a fantastic host very kind, friendly and welcoming. When we arrived, she came to meet us personally and took the time to explain everything about the property, as well as recommend some lovely places to visit nearby.The surrounding farm and countryside were beautiful, and we really enjoyed exploring the area. Having places to walk around and even a little beach by the loch made it especially enjoyable. We stayed with our four-year-old son, and he absolutely loved it too.Overall, it was a perfect family getaway. Beautiful location, peaceful surroundings, a lovely property and a wonderful host. We would happily stay here again and highly recommend Catriona’s place to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in the Scottish countryside.

We were staying at the house for 4 days. It is a beautiful place to stay as a family. We were staying with our 5 & 1 year old daughters and they enjoyed the view outside and to see the red squirrels and the birds came to have their treats. The host Catriona was so amazing she was always there when we needed her. She is so friendly. The house was clean and tidy and the rooms are so spacious. We loved the big terrace window with the view outside.

Blarghour farm cottages

Catriona was a lovely host, she gave us plenty of information about the local area and suggestions of things to do. We stayed in the stable which was clean, comfortable, provided everything we could want and had an amazing spiral staircase which really makes the downstairs area. I would wholeheartedly recommend staying at Blarghour to anyone wanting to unwind, explore or both.

Wonderful accommodation with a beautiful view

We really enjoyed our stay. The location is quite remote with a 15km single track road to the cottage, but the view over the lake is stunning and the environment is peaceful and quiet. We had deer around the house every evening. The accommodation itself is spacious and clean. Living room is comfortable, good kitchen (but no dishwasher) and bathroom, and comfortable / clean beds.

A really lovely place

Stunning views from the house which is one of the most comfortable we ever booked. Catriona is very friendly, we spent a very good time at Blarghour Farmhouse. Just a detail : perhaps could we find a few things at the check in as salt, pepper, vinegar, pastas... the next supermarket is more than 30 mn from the house

Remote getaway

We were lucky enough to enjoy at gloriously sunny and relaxing week at Blarghour Farm. Our host, Catriona, was really welcoming, friendly and helpful in showing us things to do locally but not intrusive at all. The location is stunning and the weather was warm enough to allow us all to swim in the loch every day and the sun kept the midges away. The accomodation itself is really light and spacious and has everything you need. Highly recommended

A dream location for nature lovers

We booked the cottage (Stables) for 2 weeks and enjoyed every minute of our stay. We will definitely be back. This is a wonderful base for daily hikes or bike rides. Peaceful, quiet - an ideal place for those of you who want to be close to the nature. The hosts (Catriona and Martin) are lovely and very helpful.

Loch Awe-some

Excellent, well equipped property, with stunning views over the loch. All provided information accurate, Catriona very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway. If sea food's your thing there are many quality eateries within an hours drive (Oban 'Green Shack' a must).

Peaceful location

We highly recommend this property, the location is very peaceful & the view from the accommodation is fantastic, overlooking Lock Awe, it didn't matter if the sun was shining or it was raining you could just sit & look at it all day. The accommodation was very clean & spacious, the owners were very friendly & helpful. It was one of those holidays that you never wanted to end, so we will be going back. If you like Scotland you will love this location. We found a great seafood restaurant in Inveraray called Samphire.

Perfect getaway from the rat race.

We had a great time. The accommodation was very well presented, spotlessly clean, and with views to die for. Inveraray is the nearest town with all facilities required including shops and excellent pubs for drink or food. Boat rental for a day on tha loch is a must and available a few miles up the road. All in all one of the best places we have stayed at.

Gite bien équipé avec une très grande pièce de vie au rez-de-chaussée de chaussée, deux chambres à l'étage. Splendide vue sur le loch Awe. Gite confortable au milieu de la nature. Balades à faire au milieu de la nature au pied de la porte(point de vue cascade....) Accès facile au loch au besoin. 45min de inveraray, une heure 15 de Oban, 30 des sites de kilmartin Nous l avons habité une semaine avec trois enfants sans problème.

Great holidays in a stunning landscape

We spent two weeks in Catriona´s "Stable" from July to August 2016. If you are looking for a place to enjoy peace and Scotland´s lakes and mountains, this one is the right choice for you. We and our two boys ( 5 and 6 ) had a warm and friendly welcome. The house is equipped with everything you need for self catering. All rooms are very clean, comfortable and homely. From the living room you will have a fantanstic view to Loch Awe. It is a very good starting point for daily trips with your car (Glen Coe, Oban with the ferries to Mull, Inveraray...). We are definitly thinking of coming here again.
