We love to hear testimonials from the lovely people who have stayed with us at Noddsdale Estate.
Great location, open fire and stunning views. Friendly and uncomplicated hosts - overall a successful work stay.
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.

What a wonderful and charming cottage! This truly is a cozy retreat, nestled just enough outside of largs to feel tranquil and yet close enough to walk into the town. It had an instant homely feel. The quality of furnishings and facilities is very good. It had everything we needed and then some. Settling down on a winter night with the log fire burning, was simply bliss. My family could easily have stayed longer. Jane was marvellous, making us feel welcome and ensuring we were comfortable throughout our stay. So nice to have such an accommodating and approachable lady, who went that extra mile. Highly recommend

Willow Cottage (Noddsdale) had everything needed for a carefree holiday/break in North Ayrshire. The cottage was equipped to the highest standard and just a couple of miles from Largs in an extremely picturesque location - ideal for exploring the coast and popping across to the islands.
Wonderful!
Had another lovely week at Noddsdale. A unique house in glorious grounds which are beautifully maintained. An easy walk into Largs and spectacular views. The kitchen is better stocked than mine. Xx

Very comfortable apartment within an unusual and beautiful home. So clean, peace and quiet, lovely views and walks. So unusual . Just loved the place overall. Jane and her husband were particularly nice people. Noddsdale Estate is about a mile from the front of Largs - but well worth that extra mile. Definately will return whenever possible.
A lovely stay at this cottage. Despite the midgey infestation that seemed to plague Largs, and the cottage, we had a good time. It was home from home.

What a wonderful stay we had at Noddsdale Estate! Every aspect of our experience could not be bettered - from the friendliness and welcome of our hosts to the accommodation and its location. Even the weather worked in our favour, affording us a cosy day in by a log fire because of rough weather after we had enjoyed days of hill walking in sunshine. The fire was already laid for us in readiness! Thank you.

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.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Willow Cottage. This was our first holiday with our five month-old baby, and we hugely appreciated the various appliances in the house (v. modern washing machine, tumble dryer, etc) and the extra effort Jane went to (setting up a cot for us) that helped keep things as easy and relaxing as possible. It was great to explore the various local walks and to make the most from the close proximity to Largs (fantastic 'carry oots' from Tinto tapas bar and Fish Works on the sea front). Have no doubt we'll be back.
