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

What an excellent place to stay. Our host Jane was friendly and welcoming. Not only does the accommodation have everything you may need, it is also of a really high quality.
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.

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.

Definitely a luxury rental. The flat was very clean and very well equipped, and we felt well looked after throughout our stay. The sea view is gorgeous. The kitchen was extremely well equipped and easy to use. Thick and thirsty bath towels were provided, and the beds and linens were superb. We slept better than at home. TV and internet connections were easy and good. We were looking for outdoor activities, and there were plenty for our two week stay. The grounds of the estate are absolutely beautiful and well maintained. Highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay at Willow Cottage. The Cottage is a very high standard and has everything you could possibly need on holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed exploring the local area as there is lots to see and do. We also loved the local walks and enjoyed playing tennis on the courts. Many thanks to Jane and Chris for a great holiday, we hope to return for another visit!
This was our second stay at Noddsdale, but our first stay in the Bell Loft. Like the Granary, the Bell Loft is spacious and very well-equipped for our family of three. Highlights are 2 bathrooms in the Bell Loft, but a superb view of Great Cumbrae from the Granary. Mrs Evans is delightful to deal with: always very friendly and thoughtful.

Exactly the right place to stay when visiting relatives. Comfortable, cosy ( it was a bit chilly in Largs that week), a well stocked kitchen, a fireplace, a plethora of towels, fresh flowers, umbrellas, AND biscuits! What’s not to like? The view was stupendous and the grounds very pretty. We didn’t try the tennis court but it was there. We did use the Scrabble board with our grandson. We also made good use of the coffee machine and the radio was already tuned to Radio 4. We had a great stay.

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.
