We had a lovely stay at Achnaha. The cottage was spotlessly clean and well equipped. It was very close to the beach with lovely views of Loch Long. We were using the cottage as a base for visiting family and it was perfectly located for our purposes. Andrew called us in advance with little snippets of information we might need for our stay in Ardentinny and also some suggestions for days out.Many thanks to Andrew and Barbara

What an absolute gem of a holiday cottage! Spotlessly clean, comfortable and very well equipped. We had everything we needed. Superb location with the sea so close by, our lab loved it! Excellent food at the local pub too and great that it's just a short walk away. We were blessed with the weather too so it meant we could sit out in the garden of an evening with a drink, it felt so private and peaceful. Great communication with the owner, really helpful and gave us lots of suggestions for our stay. Absolutely loved our break and would not hesitate to recommend or to book again the next time we're looking to visit the area.
