Wonderful greeting and welcoming from Darren and Karen. Perfect instructions, their local knowledge and enthusiasm and love for the area is limitless. The accommodation is superb, location is very central to some of the most historical and beautiful, silent areas.The choice of breakfast? ..I guarantee you wouldn’t get the choice of cereals, jam’s etc anywhere else.. (Karen puts other ‘full’ breakfasts to shame..). We will visit the west of Scotland again and unquestionably The Old Cottage will be on our stopover menu.

Lovely stay at Darren and Karen´s cottage
We had the most incredible stay at Darren and Karen's charming cottage in Scotland. From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that made us feel right at home. The cottage itself is a true gem, with its picturesque surroundings and cozy interior. It's evident that Darren and Karen have put a lot of love and care into every aspect of the cottage. The attention to detail is impeccable, from the well-equipped kitchen to the comfortable beds and tasteful decor. The location is simply breathtaking, nestled amidst the stunning Scottish countryside. We enjoyed long walks in nature, taking in the beauty of the landscape, and exploring nearby attractions recommended by Darren and Karen. Furthermore, Darren and Karen were exceptional hosts, always available to assist us with anything we needed. Their local knowledge and recommendations made our trip even more memorable. We cannot recommend Darren and Karen's cottage enough. It's a true oasis of tranquility and a perfect retreat for anyone seeking a relaxing and unforgettable escape. We are already looking forward to returning to this magical place!"

You haven't traveled until you've stayed at a Bed & Breakfast in the countryside. Our hosts have done an immaculate job with their property. The room felt almost too perfect to use! Wonderful breakfast, beautiful library and sitting area at the centre of the house. Great attention to detail throughout. Walking distance to a good quality dinner restaurant and bar. Gardens and the sea also a short stroll away. All in all a memorable part of our vacation.

Friendly hosts full of useful information about places to visit, pamphlets books etc. Right near to beach, saw red squirrel and rabbits outside while having breakfast. Lovely scrambled eggs and husband thoroughly enjoyed his fry up. Local unusual jams to try as well. Very comfortable. Introduced us to other guests which was a lovely touch.

Where do we start! Idyllic location, lovely warm welcome, room v.clean & comfortable with ensuite and excellent views. Breakfasts were Top Class and very accommodating when we had a very early start one morning. Darren had a wealth of knowledge about places to see & best routes to take and where to see the wildlife. Also willing to lend us guides/books with us.

Phil & Maria's Scottish Road Trip.
Karren and Darren were very very welcoming and attentive to all our needs. The cottage is charming beautiful and spotlessly clean. Parking was right outside the property, which was great as it was raining on arrival. They are very informative of the area and also have books maps and information on the area, for all activities. We were on the Argyll coastal road trip and stayed in eight Bed and breakfast establishments in all. Without doubt this was one of the best. The breakfast was also outstanding, all locally sourced ingredients, the apple and cider sausage was a stand out for me. Would definitely come and stay here again.

Karen and Darren are amazing hosts. Very attentive. Very knowledgeable about the area and like to share their knowledge. They offer you the possibility of consulting a vast array of guides and maps, books in the comfort of their sitting room or your room. Very good breakfast using also local produce. Comfortable bed (Islay room) and great walking shower. Will certainly recommend it.

We enjoyed our stay in the Old Cottage, where had a very warm welcome from Darren and Karen. We were delighted with our room, the 'Jura' - it was particularly spacious and we enjoyed sitting at the bay window to watch the rabbits and red squirrels right outside. The bathroom was large and well appointed. We particularly enjoyed an excellent home cooked breakfast. Highly recommended.

Handy location, walking distance of 2 mins to Melfort Hotel where we had a tasty dinner with spectacular views and great service.

We could ask for little more!
We had problem finding the place at first, relying too much on directions given by strangers! We had been told not to rely on the postcode in a satnav but asked for verbal help too soon. Once we were close enough we saw signs by the lane that made sense of the printed directions. The Old Cottage is in a good quiet spot off the beaten track. The hosts were welcoming and Darren was full of useful information to help our holiday go well. We felt very comfortable the whole time. The only issue during the stay was the shaver point not working, which Darren got around with a plug adapter. The breakfast choices were good and the cooked meal very enjoyable. The decor throughout the building was to a high standard with no obvious signs of wear and tear. We could ask for little more and would have stayed longer than the 4 nights' reserved, had we not booked accommodation at a second destination.
