I booked a week away as I love watching YouTubes that show stormy seas. It wasn't as stormy as I hoped but I enjoyed this holiday nonetheless. The apartment is on the first floor and is really central in Largs. There is a Tapas bar/restaurant at the end of the street with local shops and supermarkets nearby. The entryway was spotless and apartment was both spotless and well equipped and the owner even left some wee gifts for me. Thank you! :)The seafront is a 10 minute (probably less) walk away and the apartment has a folder that details local restaurants and pubs that may be of interest.Thoroughly relaxing and enjoyable, I will be back again.

Lovely holiday flat. Would happily stay again visiting my family in lsle of Bute.. very close to everything. Less than 5 mins walk to sea, pubs, restaurants, train station, ferry. Great kitchen so we could eat in as well as out. Only downside was the front door it’s very hard to shut it without it slamming as it’s so heavy. We did it most times we did it quietly, but a couple times we couldn’t stop it. It’s the same for all the people in the block. Everyone tries but the old slam does happen. Also I couldn’t work out which recycling bins were for the flat as I wasn’t marked like the main bin . So I just recycled the rubbish correctly in perhaps a neighbour S bin?!?!? Sorry if I did. Perfect other wise.
