Everything! So quiet, no noise disturbance.
I need to know how the heated towel rail in the bathroom works. I couldn't get it to heat up and I don't know how I do that. I managed the underfloor heating fine.

The property is lovely and quiet - I get a really good night's sleep because there is no noise disturbance from other residents as is usually the case in a hotel (loud voices, slammed doors).
Nothing really.

Great location and lovely cottage. Well equipped and very comfortable. Great little welcome pack. They even decorated the cottage with a Christmas tree and decorations! The breakfast in the hotel was top notch. A very dog friendly place with fantastic staff. The evening entertainment was good too. I will definitely be back soon.

The cottage itself was clean, spacious and warm. Bed was comfy and there is a walk in wardrobe. Lovely balcony with stunning view of Holy Island. We had breakfast at the Glenisle pub right next to the cottage. Breakfast was varied and delicious but the full Scottish breakfast was exceptional. Every single member of staff were polite, friendly and made us feel very welcome. They couldn't do enough for us, especially the lady who served us breakfast every morning. I would definitely stay there again.

The cottage was quiet and very comfortable. It was great for us to switch off for a few days and enjoy some peace and quiet. It's an excellent size and well equipped with a very large TV and a cinema style couch and the kitchen was modern with everything you would need. Having a washer and dryer was also a great bonus. Once we figured out the heating it was lovely and cosy! The staff were all friendly and helpful and we really enjoyed our breakfasts each morning - so much so our usual order was remembered and we really appreciated that. It's in a great location - a short drive from the ferry and an excellent place to base yourself to explore the island.
It would be a great addition to have a small welcome pack to explain how the heating works - to save you having to ask the staff to come up to the cottage to show you. A few small areas - namely in the bathroom and wardrobe area could do with some DIY/painting but it didn't detract from our lovely stay.

Very spacious, good facilities, great location, friendly and helpful staff. Nice breakfasts in the hotel.
Only nitpicking comments really, shower silicone needs redoing, one spotlight was flickering. We’d have preferred a sofa rather than the cinema chairs but that’s just our taste.

Very well appointed and loved the cinema style seating - very quirky
The external steps down were a little awkward when carrying luggage especially when wet

Didn't take advantage of the breakfast. The wee cottage was just delightful, so quiet and peaceful and so well equipped. The bed was comfortable, the kitchen fabulous, there was even a state-of-the-art washing machine and tumble dryer! The massive telly was much appreciated, I had a go on the piano and the big cinema chairs were so comfortable. I could feel the underfloor heating too. It was just a gorgeous experience and absolutely no noise disturbance, unlike in hotel rooms. I shall definitely be returning the next time the cottage becomes available.
Nothing at all! The key to the outer door was a bit difficult to operate, the door handle a bit uncooperative.

Lovely decking to sit in sunshine, large walk in wardrobe, large shower and comfy chairs with large tv!
Could have had more kitchen utensils and equipment .

We loved the location and the setting with the view of the bay. We loved the outside decking which was perfect for the weather we had. We loved the lounge with the comfy chairs and TV. The shower was great. Being able to throw open the doors onto the decking was also lovely. Breakfasts were superb. The staff were very friendly.
The bed was a bit on the small side. A bin in the bathroom would have been useful. But these were small things and the cottage was otherwise perfect for our short stay.

The cottage is set in the grounds of the Glenisle Hotel and is well appointed for exploring Arran. The view from the decking and two sets of patio doors stretches across the water to the Holy Isle. It is peaceful and relaxing, yet close to all necessary amenities. It is spacious, well-equipped and very comfortable with reclining cinema style chairs, an enormous flat-screen tv, dishwasher, washing machine, dryer and even a walk-in wardrobe. The hotel breakfast was absolutely delicious and the staff are genuinely friendly and cannot do enough for guests. We had our collie dog with us and even he was treated like royalty!
Absolutely nothing!

The location was perfect, the most beautiful beautiful view to sit and admire in the Arran sunshine. So happy to find such good Dog friendly accommodation.
Was delighted with the cinema chairs in the living room area. Amazing.
Breakfast being included in the Glenisle Hotel was a fantastic bonus & delicious too.
Tried to rebook for August, but it was already fully booked!!
A couple more wine glasses in the cupboard!

Great location, plenty of parking, easy to collect and return keys, and option of breakfast if we needed it. Bayview Cottage had all you would need from TV, to washing machine, tumble drier and hairdrier too.
Nothing - enjoyed our stay

Good size and it was clean. Property is in a nice location.
A bit tired and in need of some TLC. Shower temp wasn’t working and only had quite a hot temperature, couldn’t turn it down. Missing some basic essentials such a baking tray, dishwasher tablets for the dishwasher which you may expect to find, dish towel etc.

Breakfast (included) and meals at Glenisle Hotel were excellent. Cottage is very spacious and comfortable and set in an ideal location. Special call out to Joy on the reception who couldn't have been more helpful or welcoming.
Struggled to control shower temperature

We were booked for the cottage but whilst waiting to board the ferry we were phoned by Joy to say that they had double booked our cottage as a couple had arrived evening before and they got our cottage "someone hadn't put it in diary"!
We accepted their offer of an upgrade to The Suite in the hotel as it was too late to change our plans as we were about to board.
When we got there however the suite was on the top floor with treacherous carpeting, on 29 stairs. I was scared of falling on them.
On first glance The Suite was ok but using it there were several faults that began to emerge,
One side of the bed was a low sloping ceiling which you had to duck your head to get in/out of bed and do a low stoop.Bedside lights were extremely bright not good when one was reading and other trying to sleep.
Getting in out of bathroom was through a lowish sloping ceiling also required head ducking.
Also using the toilet, [which was placed almost in the centre of the room!] required more head ducking.
The two hand basins taps were extremely close to the edge of the basin so water didn't flow easily to rinse your hands under.
The breakfast was very good and lots of it. The staff were very pleasant and hard working and they were very busy at all times. Beer garden was well used it was during a very glorious hot sunny week.
We both feel we would have preferred our first choice of accommodation of cottage as we would have been able to use the patio area and felt the need to walk about without a permanent stoop.
The above!
Sorry too much to rewrite!

Property was very Homey, light, clean and spacious
Staff all so friendly and welcoming and helped make our stay for my partners birthday one we will never forget. Special shout out to Angela who was always there to greet us in the morning for breakfast and serve us drinks with a smile in the evening each day we were staying
Coffee machine hadn’t been cleaned or checked for a very long time as found a significant amount of mould in it and temperature gauge appeared to not be working as we couldn’t adjust shower temperature

Location was lovely. Handy having a green across the road to walk the dog. Staff were super friendly and helpful. Added bonus of a superb breakfast at the hotel.
Kitchen could have been a bit better equipped but we managed as only there for 2 days.

Fantastic big space, a cross from the beach, great outdoor space for when the sun makes an appearance! Hotel next door was great, amazing breakfast and food. Staff very helpful and accommodating. As we weren't a couple the sleeping arrangements weren't ideal, a fold out bed would be great so more people could use the space?

We were made very welcome by all staff. The cottage is spacious, well equipped, and was spotlessly clean. Its location is excellent, a few yards from the beach in the centre of Lamlash. Breakfast at the Glenisle Hotel was also excellent served by the friendly staff.

Lots of space and storage. Washing machine and tumble dryer as well as hood fridge freezer and microwave. Comfortable bed.
Huge set of cinema style chairs in the living room was weird. The living room is essentially a ‘cinema room’? Speakers on the ceiling that don’t work (yet?) Frozen ground on the pathway and steps to cottage should have been gritted. This was a serious injury risk on the freezing cold mornings while we stayed.
No info in the cottage re how anything works. None, on how to work the heating or anything else. No one had put the heating on for our arrival and the cottage was freezing on Dec 31st. We figured it out ourselves.

It completely exceeded our expectations. Very large and comfortable space with everything one might need; washing machine, dryer, decent coffee maker, heated floor, lovely shower, decking with a sea-view .. and a piano, such a nice touch 😊
Located on the premises of Glenisle hotel, where you get the breakfast (delicious, served promptly by incredibly attentive and friendly staff).
Everything was perfect

We had a fantastic stay with the glen isle hotel. We were moved into a different accommodation lodge upon arrival and it was perfect for us and our dog - super comfy, warm, had everything we needed. We had to extend our stay as the ferry broke down and left us stranded, luckily there was a cancellation so we could extend our stay here - we were super grateful and had a fantastic time. The free breakfast was a great bonus and they offered fab choices for vegans.
Wasn't a huge array of cooking implements but enough for what we needed.

We actually stayed in Glenisle Cottage as Bayview was having work done.
We loved the huge sun deck, the spacious rooms, great shower, plenty of kitchen utensils.
There was nothing we didn't like.

We were upgraded from Bayview Cottage to Glenisle Cottage. Property was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Only issue we’re a couple of light fittings which flickered but that did not detract from the overall excellent quality of the cottage. Full kitchen, spacious living area with large screen TV and very comfortable bed in the bedroom. French doors in bedroom and living room open onto the large verandah/deck.

walk in wardrobe mirror needed bulbs and more hangers for rails. - Great space
Shower needs looked at. Thermostat not working and water was always seriously hot
