We all want to go back!! Wonderful dwelling
Review Submitted: May 6, 2009
Date of Stay: May 2008
My family of 4 including children aged 11 and 9 stayed here with friends (they had 5 year old girl and granny) in May 08. I've just found the property details and thought I should review the property for others to see. In fact I immediately emailed Lynnne (owner) on our return to compliment her about the bungalow.
The bungalow is in a glorious setting, the pictures do not do it justice as it really is in a very pretty location, with superb views over the loch. The bungalow is designed as a modern, clean and contemporary dwelling, (we have a similar look at home) with proper showers, flooring, towels, bedding, all good quality. We found there to be easily enough room for all 8 of us, as the bedrooms and living areas are spacious. In the kitchen are modern clean units, with an added bonus of a dishwasher and there is also a separate utility room with a washing machine. There is also a table seating 8 and lots of plates, cups, glasses are provided so you can actually use the dishwasher and have some spares! The living room had a large tv, leather sofas, storage, coffee table and we never felt cramped, even though we tended to stay in most evenings just admiring the views outside onto the loch. One day we walked along the beach (literally across the road and picked an enormous bag of mussels which we cooked the following day). We cooked most nights as the kitchen was lovely and homely and it was good to eat in a large group around the table. We even had a bbq one night, courtesy of Lynne providing one in the garage (plenty of safe parking outside).
Within a 5 minute drive are supermarkets and small local shops and bigger ones can be found about a 20 minute drive away, there is also a pub close by too. All other attractions are so easy to get to, we spent a day on the Isle of Mull visiting Tobermory (great fish and chip stall in the centre of town).
Lynne is a superb owner, they have a beautiful b and b next door BUT never intruded at all. They were on hand if you needed them, but they had left lots of information on places to visit, walks, day trips etc, so were not really needed, we popped in to say hello some days.
To conclude I would say that this was probably the best (unexpected) holiday we have ever had in the UK. We will certainly go back one day. Congratulations to Lynne and her husband for making it such an enjoyable holiday.
One last note; Granny used a walking stick but the bungalow was suitable for her as not too many steps.
