Stayed at Hydrangea Cottage. Very cosy with everything you could need for a stay. Situation is fantastic with countryside all around and walks from the doorstep. It was looking super autumnal when we were there and it’s only a short walk into the centre of Taynuilt. The owners couldn’t have been more friendly and helpful. Have stayed in cottages throughout Scotland and did not hesitate to give five stars.

This was a wonderful place to stay, 100% recommend! The view out of the front of the house is spectacular. We stayed in holly cottage with four adults and a dog. It was perfect for us and a place to call home for the week as we came back from long days visiting all the beautiful places on that could manage!! So much to do and see. Loved it.

September 2017 we had a lovely week at Bonawe House, staying in Hydrangea cottages. Beautiful scenery, very friendly people and the owners are so passionate about the area, but also about how to create a nature friendly house. Not just by insulating all the buildings, but also by heating with a wood-chip boiler. And they love sharing there knowledge.
