Cottage vacation rentals in Loch Awe

Lakeside Cottage is beautiful, peaceful, steeped in history & easy to access once you know where it is, we drove past it 3 times lol. We were greeted with gorgeous fresh flowers in each room & a very tasty bottle of prosecco. Most Definitely will be going back at some point in the near future & can't recommend it enough as a quiet getaway - listening to the river Ayr was blissful!!

A great getaway with loads to do close by for whatever mood you're in - great towns and cities like Calendar and Stirling less than half an hour away, equally beautiful countryside and multiple waterfalls, lochs and walks to choose from on the doorstep. Our toddler loved the on site swimming pool and the grown ups enjoyed the peaceful views from the hot tub too! Rosie was so friendly and accommodating.

We loved our stay! The views were wonderful. The host and surrounding people are so welcoming. 10/10. The brownies and champagne are truly an adorable touch.

This garden cottage was straight out of a romantic fairytale! The gorgeous garden surrounding the cottage and the view of the water and misty rolling hills framed perfectly by a stone wall and ivy were just breathtaking (especially while sitting in the wood fire heated hot tub). The cottage itself was incredibly cozy. We had nearly gotten stranded on Islay with car issues and we weren’t even sure we’d get to enjoy this stop on our holiday. By the time we arrived, we were completely exhausted from the chaos of the previous 24 hours so this relaxing and welcoming space was exactly what we needed to decompress. ☺️ The cottage was well equipped and very clean! We had everything we needed and then some. Caroline was an exceptional host. She was remarkably responsive and lovely to interact with both prior to our stay (when we weren’t sure we’d be able to make it) and during our stay! Anyone with the opportunity to stay here, should absolutely do it! Thank you for everything, Caroline!!

We absolutely loved staying at the cottage. This was our third place during our Scotland trip and I am so glad we booked it. It allowed us to explore more nature scenes across Scotland and simply have a safe and comfortable home after exploring all day. If we are ever in Scotland again, we will certainly book again.

Was very happy with our stay here, The evening with the hot tub was lovely and private, everything was clean and well presented. There was games left in the house for our use and we got use of these. The instructions before arriving to find location was helpful although the postcode in Apple Maps did take us straight the correct location which was great. Overall we were very pleased with the whole experience and would stay again. The added bonus was the hosts had a new puppy and we got to meet this beautiful fur baby on checkout.

We loved our stay in the waterfall cottage! It was a perfect place for our newlywed destination to kick off our honeymoon. The view is stunning and we loved drinking our morning coffee in the back porch taking it all in. The inside is very cozy and we cooked many meals in the kitchen which was well appointed. There are other lodgings directly adjacent to the property but fortunately were all vacant otherwise it would have been less private than expected. This is listed as a detached cottage, but a wall is directly shared with a cottage next door technically making this a duplex. A bit misleading but all good since it was vacant for our stay. Nina was responsive to all our questions which we appreciated. We loved Loch Tay, the Crannog Center, and Aberfeldy nearby. While there are no direct signs to get to the lochside, there are paths down to the loch through the gate or nearby boathouse lodge entrance from the road to walk down to see the water.

Dina was great. She was away while we visited but was still helpful and responsive from Australia. Beautiful peaceful little home with views of the pasture, cows, and rabbits from the hot tub area.

Hi Anna , we have had a great time at your hide away cosy cottage whilst also going out and exploring what the area near and afar has to offer. We travelled from near Oban for our first week when we went to the Isle of Mull and then this week we did make time to visit the Isle of Skye which was spectacular. We live in mid Wales so use to the unpredictable weather but on the whole it’s been good to us . Great place to base ourselves from . The wildlife in the garden have been great to see as well and the dogs have loved it . Thank you .

Lovely little cottage, with everything you need. Clean and comfortable, just as listed. Great location to explore kintyre. Petrol station and small shop a bonus, as its a very rural settling. Peaceful and quiet.

Beautiful views, really peaceful. As described. Straightforward communication. Thanks Frances for a lovely holiday.

The cottage is beautiful and comfortable to stay in. We didn't get a chance to light the log burner but it would be lovely on a cool night, and we were supplied with plenty of logs. The area is stunning and there is plenty to do locally. Andrew was always happy to chat and even brought over some toys for our baby.

Fiona is a super hote, she is super kind and reactive, her dogs are super cute, she gave us a lot of informations about the area. The cottage is super cozy. Thanks again for letting us stay !

Words cannot express the wonderful week we have had on Loch Katrine. Old Smiddy is ideally located for hiking the mountains, lochs and woodland and Carole has thought of all you need to make it feel like a home from home. Having our morning tea watching the Barn Swallows and House Martins catching their breakfast on the lake in the sunshine was very special. Aberfoyle has all you need for food and cute shops and fantastic Doone Hill walk from the town - Free Parking!!! A ferry trip on the Sir Walter Scott from the pier over to Trossachs Pier is a MUST and the Primrose Hill hike was stunning. The Pier Cafe is outstanding, definitely worth a treat and just a short walk away. Thank you Carole for sharing your amazing house, we will be back to enjoy the hot tub and sauna 🤞

This was a truly amazing place to stay. Everything was perfect. We stayed with our 2 adult sons for our annual holiday get together. The decor is really calming and comfortable. Spacious, ample hot water, great kitchen table. The surrounding areas are incredible, breathtaking scenery. Felt sad to leave, such a happy time, beautiful house, beautiful area. Adrian was fantastic, responsive and kind. Thank you. This place is one in a million

Beautiful little cottage has everything you need to feel right at home. It has a well equipped kitchen and comfortable living area. The bedroom is relaxing and bed is very comfortable. Very quiet and peaceful. Chris and janet have put lots of local information in the cottage to help make the most of your stay. Only draw back is there is no shop in fortingall, so your nearest shop is in Aberfeldy 7miles away ( not a big deal for us as we were out most of the day). We would highly recommend a visit to the owl house. Many thanks for hosting us. We might see you again when we come back to climb meall nan tarmachan at some point x

A lovely and peaceful accommodation, which was an annex to the main house. A warm welcome from the hosts on arrival, and the house was clean and well presented. In walking distance to a local shop, pub, and loch. We climbed Ben Nevis during our stay (1h15m drive) and visited Oban (20 min drive). Would definitely stay again.

We had the best time at Bec’s place! It was cosy, clean, quiet and well equipped. Bec as a host is a big plus, she’s so very kind, was always available when we needed her, just lovely! :) The place is a 5-minute drive from Aberfeldy and a 15-minute drive from Kenmore at Loch Tay. But you can also just put on your hiking boots, step outside and start walking. Absolute recommendation and hope to stay at Bec’s again someday!

What a wonderful place! The apartment is incredibly modern but cozy, well insulated and has the most amazing views. We'd come visit again in a heartbeat!

Beccy and Dave were wonderful hosts. The cottage was perfect and every detail was thought of. We loved staying here and would recommend it to all.

The Schoolhouse Cottage in Onich was a wonderful place to stay during our visit to the Highlands. Chris & Sarah were excellent hosts and the cottage itself was lovely and nicely equipped. They have taken great care with their welcome guides- extremely thorough! The cottage is in a beautiful area and the views are just stunning- we wish we could wake up to that view every day. We'd recommend this place to anyone wanting to explore Glencoe or the Highlands in general- it's in a great location to be a basecamp for exploring surrounding areas.

Ive booked Julie's place a few times for colleagues coming to the area to cover shifts. Julie is very responsive, always helpful and makes everything very straight forward, would definitely recommend.

A peaceful get-away in a secluded and beautifully decorated cabin with lots of attention to detail, set in a lovely area to explore. There are some wonderful places nearby to visit, in particular St Kilbride Bay which is outstandingly beautiful. We had it to ourselves the afternoon we were there and even managed to see it in the sunshine. We also very much enjoyed our trip to Bute and had excellent Tapas at Tide & Thyme in Kames. We very much appreciated Heather’s friendliness and recommendations.

I had a relaxing few days at the lovely Old Byre, while exploring the peninsula and all of it's fantastic wildlife. Violet & Iain were very welcoming and friendly hosts, the cake was very much enjoyed! The cottage is comfortable, clean & well equipped, a very well crafted conversion from the old stone building. I would highly recommend.
