Simply Excellent
This is the best dog friendly holiday home we have ever rented. It’s well equipped, comfortable and spotlessly clean. Area is beautiful and neighbours were very friendly. Hotel serving good food only a short walk away. Was sorry to leave and would definitely like to go back.

Tighnabruaich- a small gem.
A very relaxed and homley feel to the area and the house.a great little gift on arrival made us feelspecial after our long journey. the only downside was about Tighnabruaich in that it had ammeneties and shopping had seen better days,(could have been covid) made sure i did my research on fuel prices and found a great deal on prices at Cot Services near Dunoon.

Staying at Derryguig
The property was very good, very clean, well furnished, equipped and comfortable. The welcome hamper was extremely generous and much appreciated.
However, the second bedroom, which would be fine for 2 children , is not at all suitable for 2 adults. We were 2 couples and it was difficult for the couple in bedroom 2. No wardrobe or hanging space at all which when staying for a week, was very unsatisfactory. We did see pictures of the rooms but you cannot tell from a photo.
Otherwise the accommodation was really good.

Comfortable house, great views.
The flat is equipped with everything you need for a pleasant stay. We were also greeted with a food basket and fresh flowers.
The view of the water and the island of Bute was great. The small village and its inhabitants are lovely and the walks are beautiful. The only drawback:
The mattresses were not that comfortable for our standards.
All in all, a very nice time.
