Beautiful apartment very warm, comfortable and has all you need for a relaxing stay. Spotlessly clean with great views and on street parking. Very handy for various bars, restaurants and the ferry. Great value for money. Nothing

Our stay was excellent. Hosts had considered everything, including providing a booklet of things to do and places to eat around Dunoon. The house was very clean, and there was more than enough room for 8 people. Four large bedrooms and two modern bathrooms with showers, as well as a comfortable living room with TV, games, and books, and a separate kitchen dining area. The house itself was conveniently located, being around 5 minutes from the ferry terminal, as well as situated near plenty of shops, pubs, and cafes. No complaints about the stay, everything was as described.

We loved this apartment. The location is perfect: close enough to the town centre to walk there; quiet at nights; stunning views over the sea; on the ground floor. The apartment itself seems to have been re-modelled recently and is in pristine condition with an attractive colour scheme in each room. It has enough detail to stop it being too impersonal, yet not so much that it becomes cluttered. The kitchen is well-equipped with good-quality appliances and everything is well organised. I have been in many holiday cottages and this is the first time I have found a frying pan which still has its non-stick surface intact. I was very impressed. Nothing. This apartment has set the benchmark for all future holidays rentals. We will be back.

Everything was just as advertised. Clean, spacious and well equipped. Instructions for arrival, appliances, heating and for checking out were all spot on. Offroad parking and location were ideal. Have already recommended to family and friends. There wasn't anything to dislike. Everything was ideal for our needs.

This is a comfy home from home the high standard of the flat finish delivers a cosy experience, the front room picture windows frame the island of Cumbrae perfectly to give wonderful start and end to the day could have sat their all day, the passing of the waverly steamer was an added bonus, the park and gardens to the front of the house offer perfect areas for children, would highly recommend Nothing

This is a wonderful property in an ideal location for walking and exploring. Super comfy beds and everything clean and tidy. We had two teen boys and there was enough room for all of us to be comfortable. Highly recommend! The bathroom rug is too slippy on the floor. Everyone slid on it. Not sure if an alternative rug could be used.

House is updated with new bathrooms and kitchen. Beds couches are comfortable. Has everything needed. Is very spacious, we were 7. Location is walking distance to a supermarket. Is safe and peaceful. In my opinion back and front yard need a litlle TLC, some trees trimming. Overall, I would choose it again if traveling to the same location.

Lovely flat beautifully furnished. Spotlessly clean, linen looked new. Has everything you need in the kitchen. Stunning views out the front windows. Very well located for town. Loads of free parking. Danny, the host, was helpful and reactive and everything was exactly as expected. Highly recommend. Nothing we didn't like.

Birchgate Bothy is a lovely spacious home from home. It has great amenities and four good sized double bedrooms. It's bright and furnished in a modern style. This isn't a criticism but as it's pet friendly, a fence and gate across the bottom of the driveway would insure eager canine explorers don't make their way to the road.
