House vacation rentals in Argyll and Bute Council

Andy’s house is fantastic for a celebration weekend. Twelve of us stayed there comfortably and there is so much public space that it’s easy to do different things yet assemble for meals. The view from the conservatory and garden is stunning. We had one person in a wheelchair and the house worked well for him too. Andy and Joan were welcoming and helpful.

Great holiday. The lodge is fabulous - clean and very well presented.

Really comfortable stay in a beautiful setting. Thank you

We had a fabulous stay here would highly recommend and would 100% come back. The house is spacious clean and quiet we had a great week here. Lots to do in the surrounding areas too to keep everyone happy.

My second stay at this place. Was very impressed the first time. A very relaxing and very tidy place to spend a weekend with family. Very good view of the sea and Alisa Craig island rock. Caroline and Stuart were very helpful and accommodating with my scheduling of the stay. Highly recommend this place.

Everything as described, peaceful location. Definitely a place worth going to. Everything you need definitely a home away from home.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here, Douglas is an attentive host who was available when needed. The bungalow was equipped with everything we needed for cooking and resting which was much appreciated as our stay was over Christmas! Douglas very kindly gifted some wine and chocolates and he was there for our arrival to show us around the house, giving some useful information on nearby shops, places to eat and things to do. We were unfortunate with the weather; however, the bungalow was very cosy and thoughtfully decorated for Christmas and time spent inside looking out at the fabulous views made up for it!

This was our second year and we love it even more. Amazing location with 5 star facilities.

We sadly only got to spend one night in this lovely house, we would happily have stayed much longer if time allowed. It was a spacious home away from home for our group of 8 after a day in the hills of Glencoe. We had so much fun playing darts, pool and table tennis in the games room and the hot tub and the views were fantastic. The water pressure in the shower was strong and luxurious and the shower products were lovely too. I fortunately the King bed was as hard as the floor which I found impossible to sleep on, but some people might like a very hard bed. The bedding was spotlessly clean and fresh and there was even some extra bedding in the hallway closet which was really helpful. Overall a really great stay. Would definitely stay again (just in a different bed 😉)

Brian was a fantastic host with an absolutely stunning property! The surrounding area is scenic and the property well stocked with everything you could need. We had an issue with extreme weather during our trip, but Brian was incredibly responsive and accommodating, helping to sort everything out quickly. We would definitely return!

A very spacious & private apartment that was well equipped. Marco was a friendly & responsive host. A lovely stay.

Great cozy place with an amazing view. We felt ‘at home’ from the moment we entered the house. Highly recommended!

What a beautiful place. Absolutely spotless and cosy. Tina was outstanding and so friendly. First time away with our dog and it was honestly perfect. We will definitely be back. Thanks for hosting us. Suzi, Ross, Finlay and Cooper xx

Pictures do not do accomodation justice. Kitchen/living space is phenomenal. We had a great family trip. Close enough to the main estate/facilities yet far enough away that it is very peaceful. Definitely 5 star accommodation and worth the extra £££s.

We loved our stay in Whiting Bay. Grant’s house was lovely! When we arrived we were greeted with a gift basket and the stove burner was ready to go! House had everything we needed and plenty of space for 5 adults and a toddler. The location was fab and we loved looking out the bay window each morning and were lucky to see a couple of pods of dolphins passing! Overall, we had a great stay and Grant was an excellent host!

Great place to stay while in Islay! So cozy and comfortable. Beds were comfy. Bathrooms were clean and had everything needed. Kitchen was large and we enjoyed cooking a meal while staying here. Lots of kitchen necessitates. Host was friendly and instructions were clear. We were nice and warm despite it being cold outside. Loved being close to some of the distilleries and somewhat centrally located on the island for everything else. Great spot!

Beautiful and comfortable home from home in a stunning location. Hosts were friendly and helpful. Highly recommended

I rented Paul's accommodation for 7 weeks in total and it was lovely, clean and very handy for our tour during their rehearsal period. I shall definitely book again for more rehearsals in Jan/Feb/March 2025. Paul was also very responsive if we needed anything. I would highly recommend this house.

Great 3 nights at the Black House. Amazing view from the comfortable sofas in the sitting room across Loch Indaal. House is lovely with plenty of space and a well equipped kitchen. Great location to explore the island and the distilleries. Claire was very quick to reply with any questions we had.

We received a lovely welcome from Cath and thoroughly enjoyed our time in her beautiful home. We would have no hestitation in recommending it to family and friends.

We had a fantastic stay here. The location was perfect, we enjoyed walking into the Harbour town which was lovely and not far to get to on foot. The place had everything we needed and we certainly enjoyed the use of the wood burner at the end of a days walking. Would certainly stay again 😊

Felt like home away from home. Very cosy, clean, and quiet. A great place to explore Ayrshire.

Arguably the best location on the island in terms of accessibility - 5 minute walk from the ferry, absolutely fantastic shop and the nook chippie right next door, 5 minute walk to the cafe, 2 minute walk to the boathouse and 5 minute walk to a lovely little beach to let the dogs run around and explore. As we stayed off season we were aware that the local amenities were on reduced hours or closed for the winter but it didn’t impact our time on Gigha as there is plenty to see and do. Highly recommend a dip in the sea at the twin beaches! Nicola was available for all our queries and responded immediately to our messages and calls - highly recommend this lovely home. It was also lovely to be greeted with some local milk and tablet and the dogs were not forgotten either with treats provided to welcome them also. Thanks, we will be back!

Lovely lovely house in very peaceful surroundings. Would definitely use again. Excellent, responsive host.
