Cottage vacation rentals in Argyll and Bute Council

Flew in from Toronto, Canada to this beautiful home away from home. Barbara, Graeme (and Rosie) were extremely hospitable and welcoming hosts. The cottage has everything you need. Lovely, comfortable linens and beds, clean and modern bathrooms, fully stocked kitchen, and great and private hot tub. The location is very rural, but easy to find with google maps. The town of Kilburnie is close by with a grocery store, gas station and pharmacy among other amenities.

Thanks for a great stay!!

We enjoy this cottage so much that this is the 3rd time we have been. The perfect place to relax.

Gorgeous time away with family for New Year. Cottage very spacious as well as cosy and the views are spectacular.

Absolutely amazing place to stay. We made use of the hot tub on the evenings while the pooch roamed the enclosed garden. We enjoyed our stay so much and felt right at home - lots of extra touches for my partners birthday that made it so great. Ross also got back to me with food recommendations before we got there so I could book a meal. We would love to come back and see more castles 🏰

This is the second visit for us it a wee hidden jem. We thought it could not get any better the exra personal touches spot on thought of everything. We enjoyed our stay very much. Host can't do enough for you would highly recommend this place comfortable beds good shower spotlessly clean comfortable place to stay OH not forgetting Lovely hot tub thank you 😀 5 🌟+

We had a fabulous stay at your gorgeous cosy house. We loved the festive theme, an ideal space to spend Xmas and New Year. Waking up to those stunning views was such a bonus and we made good use of the hot tub especially after doing the Hidden Heritage Trail which was stunning. We enjoyed seeing in the New Year and a meal at The Village Inn (literally a 2 minute walk away) with the Scottish piper adding to the festive atmosphere. We will be back and will recommend your accommodation. Paul & Mandy

The most beautiful & relaxing little holiday away from home 🌟 would come back 100% .

Loved, loved, loved staying here. The interior was sparkling clean but comfortably cosy. The interior is much more lovely than the current photos would have you imagine. I had everything I needed for a mini break with my dog. A personal favourite was the wood burner & firewood, oh and the toasty underfloor hearing on the slate floors. The views from the windows allowed me to feel I could breath just that little bit deeper. The attention to detail was lovely - everywhere. Alison and Thomas have done a really lovely sympathetic makeover to the cottage. Thank you for a lovely stay. The surrounding area is beautiful, great for walks and exploring and chatting to people you meet. A really lovely place to visit. I'd love to come back.

Great little comfy and cosy cottage within walking distance of everything in and near Brodick. Ample living room space and nice kitchen / dining room. Ideal having the enclosed space out the back for our dog too. Would definitely recommend for your stay in Arran. Lorna was very helpful throughout.

We absolutely adored our stay here. It was very comfortable and cozy, felt like home instantly. Walking distance to a wonderful restaurant that had been recommended. Mairi met us and was very welcoming and showed us around the property. Great amenities, very accurate description of property given. Would recommend to anyone! Thank you for having us!

Have just spent a few days at Ashburn cottage & it was lovely. The cottage was very comfortable with everything you could need & had fabulous views of the loch & mountains. The weather was cold, crisp & sunny so was stunning, we did have a wee flurry of snow. Loved the log burner, so cosy!! Had a lovely meal at the Goil Inn & The Boat Shed cafe a definite for a visit! Will hope to be back again soon 👍

We felt very much at home in this cosy, lovingly decorated cottage. Every practical need was taken care of, the heating system worked perfectly. We liked our meals at the big kitchen table and the quaint staircase leading up to the bedroom and bathroom. Personally, I found it hard to sleep because the mattress was worn out and very uncomfortable

Had a lovely few days at Mrs Rowans cottage. The cottage is comfortable and homely with everything you need for your stay. So peaceful and beautiful surrounded by lots of farm animals. My two collies just loved the garden.

Excellent accommodation in the ideal position to explore Islay. The house was spotlessly clean, well maintained and very comfortable and warm.

Lovely cosy cottage in beautiful surroundings . So peaceful and quiet . We had everything we needed. Beds were really comfortable. Log burner was an added bonus. Fenced and secure garden was great for the dog . Nicola was very helpful and easy to reach as she lives next door, but we still felt we had privacy and were left to our own devices . Would definitely recommend if you’re looking for somewhere to relax . Great walks from the door and nearby by car .

Beautiful cottage which has been really thoughtfully designed. For a family of four it was perfect and the scenery is beyond breathtaking.

Highly recommend, such a beautiful place to stay and everything you could need, a proper little home from home. Jane was wonderful and beyond helpful. We were a little sad to leave and will be recommending to our friends and family! Thank you so much

absolutely loved our stay, beautiful cottage in a beautiful setting

Lovely cottage with beautiful views to Mull and lots of walks nearby - we enjoyed exploring the lighthouse, Sanna, local cairns, and the ferry to Mull. The cottage is really well equiped, and lots of games for when the weather turns ... and a cracking wee hotel down the road for a drink or bite to eat. Our dog felt right at home too.

Lovely stay in an outstanding cottage. Beautiful and stylish though cosy with a great view and a great kitchen which has everything you need. Very clean and spacious. We were unlucky with the weather but sitting next to the fireplace warmed us up nicely. We were welcomed very friendly and helpfull. We had a delicous dinner in Killberry and a beautifull hike near Ardpatrick. Would love to come back with friends!

A real gem of a cottage, spacious and cosy at the same time. Fabulous river at bottom of garden which kids can paddle/swim in. Great location in middle of island so everything accessible. Super comfortable beds and great tips in visitor book! Book this if your dates are available!!!

My husband and I stayed at lovely Arrivain Cottage for our first wedding anniversary and couldn’t have chosen a more peaceful and beautiful place! We have stayed in many Airbnb’s in many places but this was simply perfect. I am a clean-freak and the cottage was just spotless throughout. Jacqui and Jeff have put so much effort and attention into this beautiful place; all the thoughtful details make a world of difference: fresh flowers, the clear notes, all the staples stocked, breakfast and fresh eggs upon arrival - it was just above and beyond, thank you! Loved seeing the birds from their feeder each morning and the sun shining from the snow-capped mountain; the cosy fire at night. I don’t think we have had a better sleep anywhere! Thank you for making our stay so memorable - we will definitely be back ❤️

1st time staying at Islay Cottage, the cottage is very quaint set in beautiful surroundings with a waterfall not 1 minute down the road. The cottage was immaculate and well presented, our favourite bit was the log burner. We shall definitely be back again in the next couple of months. Thank you Fiona for sharing this little piece of paradise with us.
