    We had a most enjoyable stay in the height of comfort. Nothing had been missed - even Christmas decorations . The house was very well equipped with everything we needed and warm and welcoming in the height of winter. The view was outstanding as was the weather.

    The location was excellent. The house was well kitted out and had plenty of everything in kitchen living room etc. Had plenty of games to keep you amused. Local hotel was good and within 5 minutes walk. Shop nearby. Short distance to Portavadie and Colintraive that allowed access to ferries giving plenty of places to visit. Had amazing view and will hopefully be back next year.

    We had another wonderful stay at Craignethan! The cottage has everything you would need & the views are outstanding even the very changeable Scottish weather looks great when you are nice & cosy in the living area. We would highly recommend & will definitely be back

    Lovely bungalow overlooking Bute . Perfect location for exploring Kyle’s of Bute surrounded by lots of walks . Recommend Kilbride Bay and The Bothy at Kilbride Farm , Carry Farm for fresh lobster and Langoustine to buy and ferry to Tarbert and circular walk past castle. We managed to walk daily despite the rain but unfortunately unable to sit outside and enjoy the view as so wet Kames local store very handy too !

    Not our first time in the area, but our first time staying in this property. Furnished to a very high standard and has everything you need ..but it’s the location that blows you away ..right on the shore front with huge glass windows (and door) and the view is just spectacular. 5 mins from Kames hotel and a couple of minutes further to the Village store. We will defo be back and this will be our first choice of property to rent again

    Well equip and comfortable in a great location. Just a few too many cushions and ornaments for us , we found it hard to put out our own stuff but overall we had a great stay.

    This is our 3rd visit to Craignethan. Cottage and the facilities are every bit as good as we found on our 1st stay. Couldn't wish for more from a holiday cottage

    We had the most lovely time at Craignethan. The cottage is well decorated, clean and right by the water. The views are absolutely stunning. An early rise with a baby was made so special watching the sun rise over the water each morning. The cottage has everything you could need and more. Katie provided us with tips on places to eat and visit. We are so happy that we followed her advice! Our trip to the beach and local restaurant made for the perfect trip. We have already decided that we will be back!!

    Fantastic property to stay in. Perfect for us going with friends, as it meant we had the cottage with 2 bedrooms for 1 family of 4 and then the out house with a further 2 bedrooms and bathroom for the other family. Stunning views, everything you need for a lovely cozy holiday. took part in the New Year's dip just a few minutes walk away at the Kames hotel beach all of us which was fun. . Already thinking of when we can all return. Just perfect! Communi

    A house with stunning views, well equipped kitchen, cozy towels, good linen and fun games. EV charger was an advantage. We didn’t have the sun but it would be even more special in the summer. Well located and you can walk to Kames Hotel in a few minutes. We will would recommend

    For our break we had everything. Comfort, a view and the weather! As regular visors to the area, we would return to this accommodation.
