Summary: We really enjoyed our stay -- and our mini wire-haired dachshund enjoyed it even more. Great for dogs -- Rufus couldn't have had more toys, beds or bowls to try out. Lovely cottage, very cosy with a well-stocked dry cabinet! It is a very special place and we will return.

Summary: Lovely cottage which is fully equipped. Quirky location with friendly residents on the island. Accommodation has a fantastic position overlooking the harbour to one side and Jura and small islands to the other. Great place for a short break.

Summary: Our group had a fantastic stay over the weekend in June. The cottage was immaculate and had everything we needed. Homely and so cosy, it was really perfect. The views around the cottage the from the decking were breath taking. We didn't want to leave! We cant wait to return!

Summary: Great fun that you have to get the small ferry across to the island there are no cars on the island so you use the cottage’s wheelbarrow and trolley to take your belongings up to the cottage. The cottage has every thing you need for self catering better equipped than many I have stayed in The island was slate quarry so you find the remains of the slate working every where but that is all bit different You can swim in the old quarries again something a bit different Ideal place for a real chill out break

Summary: I cannot recommend this place enough, it is an absolutely gorgeous cottage in a stunning spot & Ross was such an amazing host. Beautiful views from the front and the back of the cottage, a lovely cosy set up inside and all set on a wonderful and incredibly peaceful island. Everything we needed! We will be back!

Summary: The cottage was just fantastic for our holiday. It was large and comfortable, the kitchen was excellent, and the wifi / TV / DVD were also first class (so good to still have a DVD player and a choice of DVDs!). The location was so beautiful as well. Before the holiday we were a little worried by the prospect of the ferry - but it was absolutely fine, and a fun change from using the car door to door. We immediately got into the routine of ferry times (there are plenty) and using the wheelbarrow. One of the best holidays we have had in a long time.

Summary: Long weekend with daughter and soninlaw and grandchildren. It is as always a paradise on Easdale. Went down with the granddies to the world stone skimming site and even the 2 year old was up for it. Warm and comfortable in the cottage. Beautifully decorated. Lovely views from the cottage as well as on walks around the island.

Summary: Easdale Cottage is a beautiful cottage , tastefully styled and has everything you could possibly need and more!!! Ross couldn’t have be more helpful to ensure we had a perfect stay. Loved the log burner in the evening whilst we played board games. The location is stunning with lovely seats in each garden to enjoy the views on both sides of the island. The island was idyllic , we loved swimming in the quarries , skimming stones and crabbing and fishing at the harbour. The ferry is fantastic, lovely friendly service. The kids were delighted when we stepped off the boat and found the lovely park, with the Puffer restaurant/ bar overlooking, delicious food!! Great little museum with a lovely lady who had a wealth of information about the history of the Island. We had an amazing week and didn’t want to leave!
