Quirky but lovely
It was so lovely to stay in a place that more than met our expectations. Over the years we have stayed in many holiday homes, both here and abroad, and rarely have we felt that the owners make enough effort to ensure that their properties are clean and well equipped.
The old boathouse is lovely - very clean and has an extremely well equipped kitchen. The bedding and beds were good quality and we felt very comfortable. We loved the quirky wood interior too.
Thank you, Karen ….we thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Great Cumbrae - the cottage was fabulous and the weather was grand!
