Guests say
Midcraigs is a spacious and beautifully presented cottage in a peaceful rural setting near Campbeltown, ideal for those seeking tranquillity and comfort. Guests consistently praise the well-equipped kitchen, cosy interiors, large enclosed garden, and proximity to beaches and local attractions. The property is especially popular with families and dog owners. While most reviews highlight cleanliness and thoughtful touches, a few mention occasional cleaning lapses and minor maintenance issues. Overall, the cottage offers an excellent base for exploring the area, with many guests eager to return.
Most guests found the property clean and tidy on arrival, with fresh linen and well-presented interiors. However, a small number of reviews reported issues such as cobwebs, dust, and, in one case, more significant cleaning concerns. These appear to be exceptions rather than the norm.
The cottage is praised for its peaceful, rural location with beautiful views, yet remains conveniently close to Campbeltown, beaches, and local attractions. The only minor drawback mentioned is the muddy and sometimes tricky driveway, especially at night.
Guests consistently describe the house as very comfortable, spacious, and warm, with high-quality beds, sofas, and amenities. The enclosed garden and cosy living areas are particularly appreciated, making it ideal for relaxing stays.
The property is well equipped, featuring a stocked kitchen, Sky TV, games, and thoughtful extras like stair gates. Some guests noted minor gaps in kitchen equipment (e.g., potato masher) and occasional maintenance issues, but overall facilities are highly rated.
Several guests mention welcome baskets and thoughtful extras such as games and entertainment, which enhanced their stay. Please note, however, that such gifts are not guaranteed for every booking.

The house was amazing. It was spacious, equipped with everything we needed and more and super comfortable. The encloses garden was great for our dog and we even managed to have breakfast outside one day. The house is in a beautiful location, away from the traffic but still quite close to Campbeltown where you can find restaurants, distilleries and other attractions.
