Holiday rentals with outdoor seating in Kintyre

Port Ellen is the gem of Islay, and this is the gem of Port Ellen! Lovely house - had all the amenities we needed. The location and view are AMAZING. The photos don’t do it justice. We throughly enjoyed beach combing just right outside the front door! Keren was a gracious host. We would definitely return if we find ourselves on Isley again!

We have just got back from a fantastic week at The Barn in Ardfern. Cameron’s dad Phil lives nearby and he gave us lots of good tips for places to see. He was also a lovely friendly person to chat to. The Barn is very private and peaceful. Inside it is fantastically designed, comfortable, with everything we could need - a beautiful kitchen, crisp white bed linen, lovely bath and shower, and nice milk, biscuits and wine to welcome us. Places not to miss are Arduaine garden, Crarae garden, Ardmaddy garden and Crinan canal for walking or cycling. Lucy’s in the village was lovely for breakfast, lunch or coffee & cake. Just five minute walk up the hill near The Barn is a splendid view on the surrounding Lochs. We also went to Iona (book ahead with CalMac or West Coast Tours) - it was great getting the bus between ferries rather than driving. The ferries get very booked up at this time of year. Altogether we could not have asked for a lovelier week- thanks so much Phil Abi and Cameron.

We really enjoyed staying in Peter's guest home. It was very comfortable and had everything we needed. The new glass sunroom was amazing! We loved sitting there watching the ocean and the birds. It was like being outside without having to worry about the weather. Peter was a very kind and helpful host. He let us check out a little later on our last day so we could sleep in and have a relaxing morning. He also left us a nice selection of tasty treats to enjoy. We wish we had booked another night or two. If you take the ferry over to Rathlin Island to see the puffins and other sea birds, be sure to have some cash for the bus ride to the Seabird Centre. The bus driver accepted British Pounds or Euros, but not credit cards. We found Rathlin Island to be a delightful place to explore.

An utterly beautiful cottage in a fantastic location, with an enchanting little garden. There was everything you needed and was of the highest quality. Rosemary was so helpful, before, during and after our stay. Nothing was too much trouble and she responded almost immediately. The island of Bute is amazing, peaceful, relaxing and full of wildlife. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone and would stay again if we are allowed- well worth the money. Thank you so much Rosemary

Place was nice. The surroundings beautiful and so close to the park. We had a great walk there. All we expected, clean, comfortable. Got to watch netflix in a huge screen. All good According to my husband: best thing was that it was next to a pub with friendly people. We watched our first hurling match there and they explained the rules. 😊

What a lovely Wee House! We enjoyed our stay tremendously and felt really comfortable. Amazing view to the whole of the Port Ellen waterfront and easy location for the Three Distilleries Walk.

Lochranza is a lovely little village and Karen's house is right on the harbour with big direct sea views from the front room sofa...The house is ideal for two couples as we were, kitchen had all we needed for a couple of meals we had in. The Country Inn pub is just 2 minutes walk from the house and we received a friendly welcome there and had a great meal there too. The bedding in the bedrooms was great quality. Karen was very helpful with tips and information before we arrived. We had a marvellous stay and highly recommend Sea Breeze east.

Superb property. The house was very comfortable with a very well equipped kitchen. Bedrooms all a good size and plenty of living space. The views across the loch are amazing. The kids loved playing hide and seek in the large garden, which is very private and not overlooked. We should have made more of the outside patio with the well appointed garden furniture. Lynn the host sent us really useful info about things to do and places to eat in the area. We did quite a few and they were all great recommendations. She also responded to queries about activities really quickly and checked in to make sure everything about our stay was going ok. Location is really good. Easy access to nearby Rhu and Helensburgh. We found it a good base from which venture out for a range of activities and big enough to spend time in the garden and house - and enjoy the views. A great property and brilliant host. We would highly recommend.

Lovely and peaceful few days spent fishing with my son. Perfect for our needs. Friendly and helpful host and beautiful surroundings,

We had to book last minute as my father in law passed away, and John couldn't have been more helpful! He was always prompt with his responses, super friendly when we would bump into him and the place was immaculate. It's situated right at the beachfront and within a short walking distance from shops, restaurants and pubs. It was also lovely and quiet and felt very secure so I felt very safe there with my son. Thank you so much John!

Went there for a weekend on motorcycle. Great place, safe parking for motorcycle, Perfectly clean property, fully equipped. on arrival there was waiting for me bottle of milk, butter, fresh eggs from Frances hens! so you can imagine that my breakfasts were eggcellent! thank you very much Frances! I highly recommend this place.

We had a great stay here. It was so cool to be able to stay in a castle. The view and grounds were amazing! Katrina was a great host and very responsive.

Cosy, clean and quiet - everything you look for in an Airbnb! We had a great stay at Anna’s and particularly loved the pretty, enclosed garden where we soaked up some Scottish sun. Wouldn’t hesitate to book again, thanks Anna!

We absolutely loved our stay here - it was peaceful, calm and well provided. The view is pleasant and it was such a novelty for us to see sheep grazing just next door. It was a shame we only stayed one night!

This was my second stay at Jeanette’s lovely apartment on the shore front at Troon. Jeanette was a lovely accommodating host; excellent communication, she provided breakfast foods, tea, coffee and lots of sweet treats. The bathroom was fully stocked with all essentials also. The kitchen had all you would need to self cater should you wish to do so. I highly recommend this lovely apartment in a beautiful part of Scotland. Thank you Jeanette.

We had a fantastic stay at this lovely Airbnb on the Isle of Islay. The location was perfect—just a short walk to Port Ellen and incredibly close to some of the island’s most iconic distilleries, which made visiting them super convenient. The place itself was spotless, well-kept, and easy to find. Check-in was smooth and hassle-free. Our host was friendly, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Islay, especially if you’re here for the whisky and scenic walks!

Great location. Good communication with host. Clean, spacious and well equipped property. Would definitely recommend and stay again thank you. Perfect base for our stay in Arran

Great apartment in a fantastic location walking distance to local restaurants and bars, ideal location to explore the amazing countryside

We had a great time here. This was a birthday surprise for my cousin 70th birthday who has problems with mobility. Wendy communicated with me putting flowers, banners and a balloon to surprise her which was great. It was easy for my cousin to get around the property and the garden. Definitely would come back. Beautiful property in a stunning setting.

We had a lovely stay in Dunoon, it is a very quiet a peaceful place and we really enjoyed our stay. Paddy is friendly and helpful and her dog is beautiful and very sweet. Both beds were very comfortable, the shower was warm and powerful and the homemade bread was a great touch- we thoroughly enjoyed! Thank you again :)

We had an excellent stay at Cobblerview Apartment! The view was, of course, gorgeous - but the care that Carol & Don took in ensuring our stay was comfortable was greatly appreciated and made our experience especially enjoyable. The apartment is cosy and immediately inviting, with a sizable living room space and dining table positioned next to the window and looking out onto Loch Long. Though the view you have of the loch itself is expansive, we never felt as though we didn’t have enough privacy - aside from this window out onto the water, almost all of the natural light that filters in is through skylights. We never needed for utensils or utilities, Carol & Don provided a full range of crockery, cleaning supplies and towels It’s worth bearing in mind that as this is a waterfront property, the bugs are in abundance around summer and you’ll need to have your spray on if you want to sit out on the balcony this time of year!

The location was absolutely pristine with the most breathtaking views from every window. We slept so well! Jill and Simon were so proactive and easy to communicate with. we felt very welcome and loved our stay!

We love the flat, have stayed several times, suits all our family’s needs whose ages vary from 1 right up to 80!!

We were warmly welcomed by Cathy. She had bread and shortbread and jam ready for us. That she had made herself😋. The landlords were easily accessible when we needed them. The apartment had everything we needed and we received clear instructions on how to operate the equipment Furthermore, we had a fantastic view of Loch Long and the mountains. Beautiful garden and terrace with beautiful plants. And especially not to forget a nice one at 5 minutes walking distance to let the dog out. This is a place that we will definitely book if we visit the highlands again.😃
