This cottage suited all our needs, sitting out on the bench watching the gannets dive in the loch and the swallows busy overhead and enjoying the quiet and calm of the whole area was a delight.
A cosy fire and far too comfortable sofa together with the huge bed upstairs made our stay a real pleasure.
Amanda, our host was amazing helpful and kind going far beyond the norm.

We really enjoyed staying at The Moorings - great location within easy reach of Inveraray, Ardkinglas Estate, Loch Fyne Oysters and plenty of good walks.

It was our first time in Scotland. After an exhausting day of sightseeing in Edinborough, we arrived at the accommodation in the evening, immediately felt at home and enjoyed the peace and quiet. The flat had everything we needed. Highly recommended.

We had a lovely, relaxing family holiday here.
The owners looked after us really well before and during our visit, including rescuing us the day we locked ourselves out, and couldn’t have been more helpful.
The cottage is very sweet, with bright, calm bedrooms and a cosy sitting room for the evenings. Best of all was sitting at the front of the cottage on the outside furniture, in the sunshine, overlooking the loch. I sat here for hours with my broken leg, reading, knitting and watching the boats and birds. The rest of the family played badminton or went for walks along the shore.
There were lots of outings to be had, and plenty of nice places to eat nearby too.
