We love to hear testimonials from the lovely people who have stayed with us at Noddsdale Estate.
Lovely flat in beautiful grounds looking down to the sea and Scottish islands. The flat has everything you could need and Jane, the host, made us very welcome. We had a lovely time. This is a great base for visiting Great Cumbrae, the Isle of Bute and the South West of the Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park

Beautiful location with gardens and land to explore. The house was quirky but very comfortable. Spotlessly clean and generously supplied with towels and kitchen equipment.
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.

The house was great - warm, welcoming and really well appointed. Lots of thoughtful touches and it felt like home straight away. Thank you to our host who was brilliant and proactive - setting things up for our kids and checking in with us. Thanks again!

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.

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

This is a delightful,well equipped cottage in a glorious setting where everything has been carefully thought of to make your stay memorable. From fresh flowers and shortbread to dog bowls and throws we were unable to think of anything more needed. The garden is dog secure and there are stunning walks on the doorstep as well as the accessibility of the Isles of Cumbrae,Arran and Bute. Jane and Chris are the perfect hosts. We can't wait to return.

Absolutely perfect cottage with everything needed to suit my mum’s disabilities. Jane couldn’t be more helpful in ensuring our stay was comfortable and relaxing. We particularly enjoyed the country views from the sun room in the evenings and were lucky enough to have gorgeous weather to enjoy the garden. An excellent selection of books and board games was a thoughtful touch. Although they didn’t stay , my young grandchildren visited for the day and I was delighted to find children’s crockery and cutlery with a cute little high chair so they could join us at the table ! Jane really has thought of everything and we will definitely look to re-book in the future.
