    Absolutely nothing at all!

    Its location, decoration and overall ambiance made this perfect location for our stay. It was spotless, cosy and handy for a mosey around the area, as well as a trip down to the Mull of Kintyre.

    When we stayed the first time last year the wifi was good. This time it was extremely poor.

    It’s like a home from home. Right in the centre of the town. Comfy bed.

    We have been to Campbeltown at least 4 times. This is the best located of all the places we have stayed and probably the most comfortable too. If you happen to be there for a Friday or Saturday night you may want to book Restaurant 42 before arriving. We missed out as they were fully booked at the times we wanted. Because of this we went to the fish shop across the road and bought fresh fish which we cooked at ‘home’. Beautiful fresh fish (herring for us) and a few interesting prepared items too. The Co.-op is easy walking distance. We had one little problem, which Dawn sorted within an hour! Brilliant. They deserve their high ranking, we look forward to returning.

    The Scottish weather is very changeable so most places supply a lovely, warm winter quilt. However, I found that too warm during my stay and would have preferred a lighter weight of quilt with maybe a blanket to add if the night was colder. However, this is very much my personal preference and may not bother other travellers at all. I brought my own lighter-weight blanket because I half expect the quilt will be too heavy for me when the weather turns warmer.

    The apartment has everything we needed for a four-day stay. It is very comfortable and the kitchen is well-equipped. The property is located in a nice street, handy for local shops and restaurants. The hosts are very helpful and responded quickly to a question I had. We found the Kintyre Larder almost at the end of the street and it has a good stock of locally-supplied foods and drinks. We made several stops there. The restaurant Number Forty Two is very close by and the food and service were excellent. We had a great choice of fresh seafood and would recommend the restaurant. The Cadenhead's Whisky Shop has a "Tasting Room" cafe nearby - ask in the shop for directions because it's tucked away, a little out of sight. There's a small selection of very fresh food in the Tasting Room and its also a great place for a late morning coffee or an afternoon stop. The distillery tours were well worth the trip - they were the main purpose of our visit. However, Campbeltown is also a good destination for boat trips, bike hire and coastal walks. Before we even left, we were planning to go back.

    The apartment is spacious, clean, fully equipped and nicely decorated. Clear directions for the self check in. Free parking is just around the corner. Excellent location in the centre of Campbeltown. All whisky distilleries within walking distance ;). Would definitely book again!

    The apartment was immaculate. Bed was comfortable, bathroom was very roomy. It was a very beautiful apartment right in the heart of Campbeltown. There were some very quirky features and lovely ornaments. Plenty of games and information. We loved the finishing touches! We were left a bottle of wine and milk. There were loads of towels and the kitchen was well equipped. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this apartment. Lovely stay.

    This is just a wee reminder that the street outside is a double yellow line,so we needed to move the car at 9am.

    Everything was just ideal! The location is great in the middle of the town, allnyouh need just roind the orner. The apartment is big,cosy,warm, and clean. Clear directions for the self check in. Comfortable beds,beutifil living room with a small dining area facing outside, can nibble and enjoy the busy street view. Chippy and Chinese just 1min walk,very handy. The owner left a delightful surprise, a bottle of wine in the fridge, very thoughtful 😊 milk,coffee, and tea included along with the biscuits. All we needed we found in here :-) Thank you very much to the owner for a lovely stay! 🥰
