What our guests say

After a tumultuous few months working in the NHS and our long planned for holiday cancelled, we found Willow cottage online and contacted Jane, the owner. The cottage is in a lovely setting with a gorgeous garden to enjoy the sun when it shines! Willow cottage is in a great location for exploring lots of nearby sights. The owners, Jane and Chris have thought of everything in terms of making this a home from home and the cleanliness and condition of the cottage were excellent. There were some lovely touches like flowers, milk and homemade shortbread when we arrived. Chris and Jane responded readily to any issues we had and went over and above to resolve them. The weather wasn’t always kind to us but they were! I would have no hesitation in recommending this place.

Just wonderful

We stayed Mon-Fri and had a great time. We had a very warm greeting from the hosts upon arrival which was a great start. Not only is the property beautiful (the inside is a clever fusion of period feel with modern gadgetry), but there was lots nearby to keep us entertained. We spent a lot of time on the tennis courts (rackets and balls all available in the porch to help yourself to), and there is a beautiful walk up the hillside with some beautiful views.

What a gem!

We recently spent 10 days at the Bell Loft & would happily have stayed longer. The accommodation is very clean & well presented. Tastefully decorated & furnished, with comfy beds, lovely bedlinen & quality duvets, towels, crockery etc. The kitchen is fab & has everything you could possibly need including a Nespresso! Tea, coffee & other basics like salt, olive oil, as well as a vase of flowers & home made biscuits to greet us. Everything worked, we felt comfortable, relaxed & safe, it's a perfect retreat, whilst only 5 minutes by car or taxi into Largs. We had great weather & loved walking from the door, up through the grounds to enjoy the wonderful views & tranquil setting. Jane & her family made us feel very welcome & we hope to return.
