Very relaxing holiday in a lovely place. The kitchen was very well equipped, including scales and baking dishes. My Mum particularly appreciated the walk in shower. Everyone enjoyed the sea view and the beautiful weather (not guaranteed obviously, but we were lucky!).
A fabulous place to stay in an absolutely idyllic location. The house is equipped with everything you could possibly need and the outdoor decking area is fantastic. A short walk to the ferry takes you across to Port Appin. Would love to stay again in the future.
It was wonderful to return to the beautiful island of Lismore with our our grown-up children after 15 years. Although there are more visits to the island, you never feel youâre using share the place as it is so peaceful.The house has a sterling location looking out over the bay towards Appin. There has been so much attention to detail in the property that it lacked nothing. For those who struggle with a firmer mattress, I would observe that the beds are on the firm side.
Lovely house , which was well equipped , with fantastic wraparound balcony where you could take in the stunning views and watch the family paddle boarding . Cycle hire at the nearby walk on ferry and lovely walks.. Cafe at the visitor centre has lovely food and Lismore is worth a visit . We will certainly visit Strathlorn again.
The house is in an amazing location, right on the water. The view is breathtaking and there is almost no noise apart from the sea and the birds.The islanders are very welcoming and helpful. A beautiful house!
We were looking for self catering accommodation for 2 people but when we saw this place we decided to indulge ourselves and booked it straight away. The property did not disappoint. It was simply perfect and "that view"!!! Due to the changing tides, and weather, there was always something new to see. Watching the boat traffic was interesting too.
The property would easily accommodate 6 people with en suite facilities to all 3 bedrooms, and plenty of seating in the lounge area and at the dining table.
The foot ferry was less than 10 minutes walk away, and the car ferry only 15 minutes drive. We hired bikes from The Point and paid a couple of visits to the Heritage Centre where the blackcurrant ice cream was the best I've ever tasted. A perfect location for 'getting away from it all'.
The house corresponds perfectly to the description, very tastefully furnished, the equipment leaves nothing to be desired. The view of the loch is breathtakingly beautiful, we really enjoyed the morning silence and the wildlife. Communication with Marilyn and John was extremely friendly and helpful. Lismore has lovely walks, a great cafe with burgers, soup, sandwiches and cakes, a perfect addition for those who don't always want to use their own kitchen. We had a wonderful time despite the rain and would love to come back. Then we will also try out the fireplace, unfortunately we didn't get round to it. Many thanks, Marilyn and John!
Very high spec property with everything you could possibly need and more ! Enclosed garden and direct access to beach. Lismore is a beautiful island but some areas best explored on foot or bicycle as parking limited.Dogs must be kept on leads due to Sherpa and ground nesting birds. Lots of walks, wonderful cafe and heritage centre and the fun of the foot ferry over to port appin. If you like sea gazing and swimming and walking you will never be bored here.
This holiday home is excellently equipped. Based on the detailed information we received in advance, we were able to prepare so that the vacation could begin from the very first second.
The location is also unique. This holiday will remain unforgettable.
In short: We can easily recommend this location.
Greetings from Germany!
The accommodation was to a high standard and very comfortable with stunning views. Lismore is a wonderful, tranquil island, rich in wildlife and beautiful scenery. Otters and seals spotted daily from the accommodation. Mother otter and pup seen at Point and Port Ramsay during the day. Loved watching the nesting birds and geese with small goslings. Hope to be back.
Fantastic property well appointed nearest we'll get to living in a grand designs house. Beautiful location with fantastic panoramic views and some great coastal or inland walks across the island.peaceful and special place .highly recommended
A fantastic property with amazing views!
As a lot of the other reviews mention, this a lovely property that is very well furnished and has everything you could possibly need.
We wondered if the house would be cold and whether the WiFi would be ok. The house was lovely and warm and the WiFi is better and faster than I get in Cardiff!
The location is stunning. The views are breathtaking, the people are friendly and silence is golden!
I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending this beautiful property for some time getting way from it all!
I canât wait to visit again.
If you can, absolutely do!
No hesitation to recommend, especially if you have an outdoorsy leaning. Spotless, and welcoming. Quiet and with an off grid feel. Views that leave you wondering why you are staring into space for minutes at a time without a single thought in your head. Lots to see and do on the island and taking off on foot every day was one adventure after another. Bring plenty of food because we worked up prodigious appetites every day. No negative thoughts at all.
A fantastic object in a very nice location, The guesthouse and the location is perfect to retreat from stress and hectical jobs. There is space for up to 6 persons, a huge and well equipped kitchen and a livingroom with the most refreshing view for watching tides rushing in and out, ships go by and many species on search for food. If planned well you wouldn't even need a car. The host is giving most valuable information to every request about the house and the surroundings. Mind to book your ferry-trips to and from the island well in advance.
We had a wonderful trip to Lismore made all the more special by the wonderful house. What a view! Enjoyed a couple of day trips to Oban on the car ferry to sightsee on the mainland but also enjoyed using the foot ferry for meals at the Pier House at Port Appin. Absolutely stunning location and we will definitely return.
Unsurpassed tranquility, the views and the wildlife. Sit on the glass enclosed deck with magnificent uninterrupted views, and watch the wildlife and passing boats all day long.
