Lovely little cottage.

We both loved this little cottage with grand views over the Firth of Clyde, worth the climb up the steep stone steps! We managed them and we are in our late 70's though fairly fit. The cottage was cosy, clean and comfortable and the support we had from the owners was excellent. It is well placed for visits around the lovely Cowal peninsula. There is a well stocked shop and two hotels serving food within walking distance. We would go back there anytime.

Lovely anniversary break

Had a wonderful stay at Arthur’s Seat Cottage in Innellan for our recent 21st Anniversary break, The property is simply stunning , nestled in the hill on the shore line road with amazing views of the Clyde from the beautiful garden terrace. Very serene and peaceful in such tranquil setting, a great base to explore Dunoon and the Argyle Forrest with Benmore Gardens a short drive away. Pucks Glen was another favourite like walking onto a film set of Lord of The Rings this enchanting mystical gorge deep in woods is an absolute must visit place, as was Inveraray with its castle and historic city 17th century jail. Overall a fantastic break in a beautiful part of the world that is West coast Scotland.

Loved Innellan!

We had a great first visit to the Cowel Peninsula! Arthur’s Seat was as described with wonderful views! Osborne’s down the road is our new favorite! It was great to meet the owner too!

So good we came back!

What can I say, this little gem was perfect. So much so that we rebooked a second week! Clean, comfortable, lovely little home from home with views to die for. The little treats were a nice touch, and the owners are only at the end of the phone if you have any problems. Book now! You won't be disappointed!

What a gem! Dolphin watching from the patio!

We stayed for a week while working in Dunoon, and loved it so much we booked again for the following week. Such a pretty, quaint little cottage set high up off the road. The stairs are definately worth the climb to relax on the patio, overlooking the water. We were lucky enough to see 10 dolphins swimming past one morning while sat with a coffee! Even if the weather is poor, you can still appreciate the view from all windows!
